Welcome to the Level Up Podcast. I'm your host, Paul Alex. I went from being a cop to an eight-figure entrepreneur that helps average people like you and me make money every single day. I created this podcast to help you get motivated and to crush your goals. Let's win together.

Remember, I have your six. Get ready to level up right now. All right, guys. So today we're gonna be talking about what it means to actually be alpha in 2024 and how that ties into dealing with depression. The concept of being an alpha has evolved. And in today's world, it's all about much more about just dominance or power. It's about resilience, emotional intelligence, and most importantly, the courage to face your struggles

head on. In 2024, being an alpha is not about being the loudest or strongest person in the room. It's about leading with empathy, being adaptable, and showing your strength through vulnerability. True alphas are those who lift each other up, who aren't afraid to admit when they need help, and who understand that real strength comes from facing your challenges, not running from them. This includes dealing with something as tough as depression. Depression is a battle that many face, even myself, often in silence. It's important to recognize that asking for help is not a sign of weakness. Let me repeat that again. This is not a sign of weakness.

It's a sign of strength, actually. As someone who's navigating the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, I know how insulating and overwhelming life can sometimes feel, guys, but sometimes to overcome depression is acknowledging it and actually seeking support from your loved ones, whether it's from friends, family, or professional. And Alpha in 2024 knows that it's okay to struggle. It's okay to have moments of doubt. It's okay to be sad. It's okay to have fear. What defines you is how responsive you are to those moments. You do not need to hide from it, but you have to confront them head on. Dealing with depression requires the same resilience and determination that you bring to your business or any other challenge in life.

It's about taking one step at a time, being patient with yourself, and knowing that you're not alone in this fight. You got to embrace the journey, not just the destination. Being an alpha today means understanding that part of your strength comes from the ability to be real with yourself and others. It's about balancing ambition with self-care and recognizing that your mental health is just as important as your physical or financial health. So remember when I tell you this, being an alpha in 2024 is about leading with your heart, embracing vulnerability, and having the courage to face your inner battles. Don't be afraid to seek help and know that your strength lies in your resilience. So thank you for tuning in to the Level Up podcast.
