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.
