Ep 100 Your Journey to Fulfillment in Midlife Goes through Five Major Areas of Life

  1. Ep 100 Your Journey to Fulfillment in Midlife Goes through Five Major Areas of Life Bernie Borges 30:04

Welcome to episode 100! This episode is a hybrid BF to AF / Maximum episode. 

On this centennial episode, I solo to cover two topics that summarize my experience in the first 100 episodes.  I share some of my personal fulfillment journies as well as explain two important topics that characterize the basis for the Midlife Fulfilled podcast. 

1️⃣ What is the true definition of midlife?
Spoiler alert, midlife is not the midpoint of your life!  There is very little support in the scientific community for a universal definition of midlife. I offer my own definition, and back it up with logic that's hard to dispute. Go ahead and try. 

2️⃣ The five major areas of midlife and a quiz to help you calculate how fulfilled you are across all of them. 

Health | Fitness |Career | Relationships  | Legacy   

How fulfilled are you in each of these five major areas of life? On this episode, you'll be asked to calculate this. And, if you're 80% fulfilled, you're doing great!

I also explain why any other area of your life where you seek fulfillment is a subset of one of these five areas.

On episode 100 I also introduce you to my free Midlife Career Reboot Workbook which I explain on episode 101.

If you're listening to this episode on or after July 27, 2023, you can download the free Midlife Career Reboot Workbook at midlifefulfilled.com. If you're subscribed to my newsletter, you'll receive it automatically.  

I hope you'll join me for the next 100 episodes!

Bernie Borges Host Midlife Fulfilled Podcast

I started podcasting in 2013. My most recent podcast is the Midlife Fulfilled weekly podcast which launched in February 2022.

I was frustrated by a lack of fulfillment, in spite of good health, a successful career, good fitness, a healthy marriage, and overall happiness. Despite these blessings, I was lacking fulfillment.

I conducted a survey and discovered that I wasn’t alone on the journey to find more fulfillment. As an experienced podcaster, I knew that I could provide a platform to help men and women in midlife find more fulfillment and joy through a weekly podcast.
