Life Fulfilled Podcast — Because Work Shouldn’t Drain Your Life
Hosted by Bernie Borges | Founder, Fulfilled@Work Academy
Most people don’t realize it, but career struggles often bleed into every part of life: your health, relationships, energy, and sense of purpose. If you feel stuck at work, burned out, or quietly wondering, “Is this it?” you’re in the right place.
On the Life Fulfilled Podcast, Bernie Borges helps you decode where fulfillment is missing and how to get it back. While two-thirds of our episodes dive into career and workplace topics like engagement, quiet quitting, leadership, and burnout, we never lose sight of the full picture. We also explore how emerging forces like AI are reshaping the workplace and what it means for your role, your growth, and your sense of purpose.
Because fulfillment doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens across five interconnected life pillars: health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy.
Through solo insights and expert guest conversations, Bernie brings practical tools to help you reclaim purpose and clarity, especially at work. As the creator of the Fulfillment Centric Leadership™ Framework, he equips professionals and business leaders to create meaningful, energizing careers without sacrificing the rest of their lives.
Whether you’re leading a team or leading your own comeback, subscribe now to learn how to build a life fulfilled, starting where you spend most of your time: at work.

Life Fulfilled Podcast — Because Work Shouldn’t Drain Your Life
Ep 218 Discover Your Unique Brilliance for Effective Leadership
In episode 218, Bernie speaks with Regina Huber, a transformational leadership coach, inspirational speaker, and author of "Living My Frickin’ Amazing Life." Regina joined us to discuss the pivotal role of self-leadership in achieving a truly fulfilled life.
🗝️ Three Key Discussion Points:
1️⃣ The Core of Self Leadership: Regina emphasizes that self-leadership begins with self-awareness, and how observing ourselves and considering others’ perceptions are crucial in developing this self-leadership.
2️⃣ The Power of Feedback and Trust: Trust and feedback are essential in self-leadership. Regina discusses the importance of creating a safe space for feedback to flow between leaders and their teams. She explains how mutual trust and effective delegation can empower leaders to focus on strategic priorities and foster a culture of growth and trust within their teams.
3️⃣ Embracing Unique Brilliance: Regina introduces the concept of "unique brilliance," the distinctive uniqueness that each person brings to the table. As leaders, recognizing our own "unique brilliance" allows us to appreciate and harness the capabilities of our team more fully, leading to more successful team dynamics.
Main Takeaway: Self-leadership is not only about personal introspection and awareness but also about actively engaging with those around you to build mutual trust and understanding. By embracing your unique strengths and encouraging others to do the same, you create an environment where everyone can thrive and live their version of a "freakin’ amazing life."
