Who am I?

Hey there, I'm Bernie Borges, host of the Midlife Fulfilled Podcast. I've been podcasting since 2013. I struggled with my own sense of fulfillment in midlife. I had a hunch I wasn’t alone. Turns out, I was right! I surveyed 267 people (mostly over age 40) and discovered that 78% of them were not totally fulfilled. So, I launched the Midlife Fulfilled Podcast in February 2022. I publish a weekly interview episode on Monday. And, I publish a solo takeaway episode on Thursday. The Midlife Fulfilled Podcast helps men and women over 40 thrive across the five pillars of midlife: ✅ Health ✅ Fitness ✅ Career ✅ Relationships ✅ Legacy Each week I publish one of two types of episodes. BF to AF episodes feature someone who shares a personal fulfillment story. These folks open up about some aspect of their life where they chased (before) and found fulfillment (after). I often hear listeners say something like “That story really spoke to me.” Maximum episodes feature someone with expertise on a topic who shares their wisdom to teach and inform. Topics run the gamut from estate planning to elder care to how to develop your personal brand, and much more. Additionally, on occasion, I collaborate with a brand to feature stories of people who have experienced significant life changes using the brand’s product or service. Rather than producing promotional spots for the brand, we share real-world experiences from their customers through immersive storytelling. At the end of each episode I say “if you’re 80% fulfilled, you’re doing great!” Then, I offer a challenge. “If you want me to prove this to you, listen to episode 100.” The Midlife Fulfilled Podcast is my passion project. I’m on a mission to help men and women over 40 thrive more in midlife because everyone deserves to thrive. I invite you to join me on this journey. Subscribe to my weekly newsletter to get each episode delivered to your inbox plus bonus content that informs you on a topic to help you thrive more.

Are you looking to start something new in your 40’s, 50’s or beyond but are scared to start? I never want to hear people say: “Oh it’s too late to make a change” or “I wanted to do that when I was younger, but it’s too late now.” WHY??? Why are 20 and 30-year-olds the only people who are allowed to start something new? For people who are in their 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, you are uniquely qualified to launch that business, have that creative idea, or start that new life. You’ve “been around the block” as they say and your experience makes getting started faster and easier. In this podcast, we will talk with people who have successfully started a business, made a major career change, started creative endeavors, made major health changes, started competing as an athlete, and gone back to school...all in their 40’s, 50s or beyond. This is the place for inspiration, motivation, and mindset shifts. You will walk away ready to take action with practical and informative advice from some of the most amazing “Late Starters” on the planet!
