Imagine growing up without a role model to guide you, or perhaps, being lost in the sea of influences and not knowing who or what to look up to. In this episode,  hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros explore the profound impact of role models in our lives. They reflect on how the absence of significant influences during their youth affected them and the importance of continually reassessing who our heroes are and why. They discuss the fine line between admiration, actively seeking a role model, and the often unmentioned idea of outgrowing our mentors. They also talk about the critical characteristics of humility and honesty for choosing a mentor, and the importance of being true to ourselves in the process. It's not just about having a role model, but also about understanding why they are your role model.
