The Bridge to Fulfillment
Are you convinced that the way you see the world is the truth? For many high-achievers, the biggest barrier to creating the life and career they want isn't external circumstances—it's their own perspective. You keep trying harder, doing more research, and believing that if you just figure out the right strategy, everything will fall into place. But what if the real issue is that you're operating from beliefs and assumptions that simply aren't true? Your perspective isn't a fixed part of who you are—it's a lens that can be adjusted to unlock far greater possibilities for your...

EP 279: Leading as the World Shifts: Human-First Skills for the Age of AI with Guest Expert Minette Norman
The Bridge to Fulfillment
In a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain, what is it that makes some leaders thrive where others crumble? The answer likely isn’t what you think. It's not the fancy job titles, experience, or even raw intelligence. It’s how comfortable they are steering the ship when they can't see the horizon. It’s the ability to bring clarity when everyone feels confused, understand their own blind spots, and truly connect with people – the human-centered skills that most leaders were never taught. Today on The Bridge to FulfillmentⓇ, Blake welcomes Minette Norman. She is an...

EP 276: Successful on Paper but Lost, Drained, or Unfulfilled?
The Bridge to Fulfillment
Are you successful “on paper” but in reality, you’re feeling lost, drained, or unfulfilled? You worked hard to get where you are, but your career success doesn’t feel like it’s ticking all the boxes.

EP 275: Protect Your Energy & Reclaim Your Life
The Bridge to Fulfillment
We've been told that time is our most valuable resource. But what if we've been focusing on the wrong currency all along? The truth is that we have a resource far more important than time. It’s our energy that actually determines what we accomplish – and how we feel doing it. The breakthrough comes when we stop asking "Do I have time?" and start asking "Where is my energy going?" Today on The Bridge to Fulfillment®, Blake challenges the belief that time is our most valuable resource. She reveals why energy is a far more valuable asset, and shares how you can begin to align...
info_outlineHow often do you feel triggered by the words or actions of someone else?
When we are emotionally triggered by something, we are usually reacting to a situation instead of responding to it.
And when we are reacting instead of responding, we show up as our wounded selves instead of our best selves.
That’s when it’s time to pause, ask yourself where this is really coming from, and take a moment to gain clarity so that you can reframe the situation and navigate it from a place of truth and integrity.
Today on The Bridge to FulfillmentⓇ, Blake welcomes Andrea Mein DeWitt, author of “Name, Claim & Reframe: Your Path to a Well-Lived Life”, a practical approach to navigating life’s challenges. Her guide teaches you how to name and balance your emotional triggers, claim core value lead actions, and reframe challenges as opportunities so you can live your best life.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to listen to your inner compass and allow it to guide you, rather than continue to push it and its message to the background. You’ll hear practical tips for gaining attuned awareness so you can begin to heal yourself from the inside out. You’ll also learn how to lead more intelligently and with more self-compassion so that you can start to rebuild your idea of success on a foundation of truth and authenticity.
Until we navigate our inner problems, the changes we make on the outside won’t help us make the fundamental life changes we seek on the inside.
