In this 'On My Mind' episode, Bernie summarizes key insights from the newly released research report "Thriving in Midlife: Survey Results on Fulfillment Across Key Life Pillars." Bernie dives into some of the findings in this comprehensive research study conducted in partnership with Udemy.
Curious to know how midlifers perceive their fulfillment across the five key life pillars? Here are three key points from the episode:
1️⃣ Health and Fitness Fulfillment: A significant 65.7% of respondents reported high fulfillment in health, while fitness had a lower rate, with nearly 29% expressing low fulfillment. This highlights an area ripe for improvement among midlifers seeking greater physical and mental well-being.
2️⃣ Career Fulfillment: With 61.2% expressing high career fulfillment, a notable proportion of individuals feel fulfilled in their professional lives. However, as Bernie points out, there's an opportunity for business leaders to push these numbers higher, potentially striving for a 70% threshold akin to a 'passing grade.'
3️⃣ Engaging with Younger Generations: When it comes to workplace dynamics, 77.5% of midlifers regularly engage with younger colleagues, and 75.7% view this engagement positively. Yet, opportunities for intentionally active engagement remain an area for growth to enrich cross-generational collaboration.

The report outlines many insights for leaders at organizations who seek to drive fulfillment-centric leadership. Likewise, individuals experience an encouraging picture of midlife fulfillment as well as areas for improvement.
Individuals over age 40 focusing on enhancing our health, fitness, elevating career contentment, and deepening connections with younger generations can further enrich our fulfillment journey.
