Watch this episode of the Life Fulfilled Podcast on YouTube
Host Bernie Borges guides you through a conversation about the power of self-discovery as the true foundation of fulfillment far beyond changing jobs, relationships, or chasing shiny new achievements.
You'll learn why transitions, not reinventions, spark the right questions; how misalignment in your core life pillars—health, family, career, relationships, and legacy—can keep you stuck; and why clarity is the missing link to moving forward.
Bernie draws on his personal journey and practical metaphors to explore how fulfillment is built from the inside out, starting with honest self-reflection and proactively clearing the "fog" that blurs your sense of self.
Three key insights:
1️⃣ Fulfillment starts inside: Chasing external fixes (new job, new relationships, etc.) isn’t the answer. The real shift begins with self-discovery and getting clear on what matters most to you today.
2️⃣ Transitions trigger growth: Life’s transitions, both pleasant and challenging, are opportunities to reflect, not just react. The process of asking the right questions during these shifts helps reveal where your values and reality are misaligned.
3️⃣ Build, don’t chase, fulfillment: True fulfillment is something you build by aligning your health, career, relationships, fitness, and legacy pillars with your values. It’s a process that starts with clarity, not reinvention.
Main takeaway:
Don’t settle for "foggy glasses." Give yourself permission to gain clarity through self-discovery, recognize misalignments, and intentionally build the fulfillment you deserve in every area of life.
