Life Fulfilled Podcast — Ever wonder? “Is this all there is?”
Ever find yourself wondering, “Is this it?”
Yeah, me too. That ache for real, soul-deep fulfillment is exactly why this show exists. A richer life is closer than you think.
I’m Bernie Borges, Founder of the Fulfilled@Work Academy™ and creator of the Fulfillment Centric Leadership™ framework. Every Monday, I bring you real, practical conversations centered around the five pillars of a fully lived life:
- Health – aligning your mind and body to thrive
- Fitness – moving in ways that energize, not exhaust
- Career – loving Mondays again (or finding the courage to pivot)
- Relationships – showing up for the people who matter most
- Legacy – creating a life story you’re proud to tell
Here’s what you’ll experience:
- Honest stories from real people navigating fulfillment in real time
- Solo episodes with lessons I’m learning (and unlearning)
- Insightful guest conversations packed with takeaways you can use now
Tune in if you’re ready to:
- Replace burnout with fresh purpose
- Feel strong—in your body and in your voice
- Recharge (or reinvent) your career
- Rekindle relationships that matter
- Start building a legacy that outlasts you
No matter your age or stage, a more fulfilled life is possible.

In episode 223, a Vulnerable Conversation episode, Bernie has a heartwarming conversation with Tim Hughes about his journey to finding purpose and legacy through loss and reflection. The discussion offers valuable insights for anyone seeking clarity in the meaning and impact of their existence.
🗝️ Here are three key takeaways:
1️⃣ Purpose and Clarity: Tim shared how the experience of his father's funeral provided him with a clearer understanding of his own purpose and legacy. The realization that legacy isn’t just about grand gestures, but the personal impact we have on individuals can bring clarity to our life's purpose.
2️⃣ Everyday Impact: We discussed how legacy doesn’t require impacting the entire world. It’s about making a meaningful difference in the lives of even just a few people, whether through mentorship, kindness, or support, as exemplified by Tim's father's mentorship and inclusive mindset at the BBC.
3️⃣ Preservation of Voice and Values: Tim also underscores the importance of recording one’s voice and stories to create a lasting personal legacy. Our recorded voices and teachings can continue to influence future generations, long after we are gone.
💡 Main Takeaway: Legacy is not just about big achievements but also the small, yet significant, imprints we leave on people's lives. Whether it's through mentoring a colleague or supporting a cause, every action contributes to our legacy.
