Bernie devoted this 'On My Mind' episode to the concept of age pride and how it relates to the 5 pillars of midlife – health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy. He explored the difference between happiness and fulfillment and shared his perspective on embracing age pride across these pillars.
Here are three key takeaways:

🔑 Age Pride: Bernie discussed the concept of age pride and encouraged listeners to view their age through the lens of the 5 key pillars of midlife - health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy.

🔑 Fulfillment vs. Happiness: Bernie explored the distinction between fulfillment and happiness. While happiness is an emotion, fulfillment is soul-deep and associated with achievement. Fulfillment is usually immutable.

🔑 Room for Improvement: Bernie emphasized that there's room for improvement in his fulfillment in each of the 5 pillars of his life, but having age pride involves acknowledging your current state in each pillar and not being too hard on yourself.

The main takeaway from this On My Mind episode is to consider embracing age pride and assessing your fulfillment through the lens of each of the 5 pillars of midlife, for a holistic perspective on your journey.
Strive for fulfillment across health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy, acknowledging that there's always room for growth.
