In this episode of Passion Struck, John R. Miles unpacks the Fulfillment Gap—the hidden divide between the work we do every day and the meaning we hope it will bring. Drawing on Gallup’s latest research, personal stories, and powerful interviews, John reveals how misaligned work erodes health, fuels burnout, and undermines our sense of mattering.

John then introduces a practical four-step framework—Audit, Align, Adjust, Advance—to help you reclaim your work as a source of strength, resilience, and wellness. This episode is a call to stop trading health for achievement and start building a career—and a life—that sustains you from the inside out.
