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.

Life Fulfilled Podcast — Ever wonder? “Is this all there is?”
Engaged Employees Drive Higher Performance through Purpose and Fulfillment
This episode features Myriam Vidalon, SVP of Culture & Workforce Transformation and Chief Diversity Officer at NielsenIQ. We discussed how NIQ is embedding purpose into their culture, resulting in fulfilled, engaged teams with strong performance.
🗝️ Three key takeaways:
1️⃣ DEI is evolving, not disappearing. Performative DEI, where organizations just “check boxes,” is out. What matters now is authentically embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion into the fabric of company culture, driving real purpose and belonging.
2️⃣ Fulfillment is a performance strategy. When employees feel that their work is connected to a larger mission, engagement, and ultimately, performance, soar. NielsenIQ’s “Leading with Purpose” workshop is a great example of how helping teams discover their “why” fuels higher results.
3️⃣ Well-being is business-critical. Fulfillment and personal well-being are deeply intertwined. Leaders who prioritize these elements see better engagement, healthier workplaces, and measurable improvements in business performance.
Main takeaway:
When leaders embrace fulfillment as a core part of their strategy, not just a buzzword, they create engaged, high-performing teams ready for the future of work.
