Midlife Fulfilled Podcast: Thriving in Life, Career, and Leadership.

Ep 127 Personal Development is Misunderstood Possibly to Your Detriment

Bernie Borges Season 2 Episode 127

Welcome to episode 127, a takeaway episode from my conversation with Dr. Richard Mitchell on episode 126 about the power of personal development.  Three key points we discussed are:

1️⃣ Finding Fulfillment in Career Transitions 
2️⃣ The Impact of Burnout on Your Personal Life
3️⃣ Pursuing Personal Development

I am convinced that personal development is not an option, especially as we navigate through our midlife seasons.  But, personal development is misunderstood. I think many people don’t really understand the meaning of personal development.

When we invest in our personal development, we’re investing in the legacy we will leave. It doesn’t have to be through a charity. It could be just in the way you treat others through a new lens as a result of self-discovery, in a personal development experience.

My Challenge to You

If you’re dealing with a lack of growth in your life, give yourself permission to explore personal development. Don’t allow some ill-conceived stigma to prevent you from taking a step to find a resource to help you on your personal development journey. You’ll be glad you did, and I can assure you those whom you impact through your growth will also be glad you took that action step.
