Welcome to Life by Design with Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe. This podcast is a space for real conversations about well-being, resilience, performance, leadership, and everyday life – and how the small choices you make each day shape the quality of your life. Living a big, beautiful life isn’t reserved for a select few; it’s built in the ordinary moments, the routines that ground us, the acts of self-care that restore us, and the intentional decisions that align us with what matters most. Each week, we take big ideas and turn them into practical habits, tools, and practices you can actually use. Those everyday choices are what allow you to be steady, capable, and even extraordinary when life calls on you. If you’re ready to be intentional about how you show up, what you prioritize, and the life you’re building over time, you’re in the right place. Together, we’ll explore what it truly takes to live well and be well by design. We’re so glad you’re here.

Becoming Who You Want to Be with Brian Ford

Saison 2 · Épisode 84

mercredi 8 avril 2026 • Durée 38:25

Today on Life by Design, behavior change expert Brian Ford joins Dr. Robyne for a conversation about the realities behind personal development and how we truly transform our lives.

They explore why consuming self-help content leads to little change without consistent action, how setting clear standards, rather than relying on lofty goals alone, can help close the gap between intention and behavior, and how self-sabotage often shows up in subtle ways.

Together, they highlight the importance of recognizing your impulses, adapting commitments to match your capacity, and practicing honest self-reflection so you can build consistency, strengthen self-trust, and reinforce the identity you want to embody.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between who you are and who you want to become, this episode will give you the clarity and tools to help you create lasting change.

mercredi 1 avril 2026 • Durée 44:08

On this episode of Life by Design, Dr. Robyne is joined by human performance scientist Dr. Andy Galpin for an insightful and actionable conversation about managing well-being and pursuing health goals, especially when navigating stressful, demanding seasons.

They also explore when tools like wearables are helpful versus when they add more noise than value, along with practical advice for parents, coaches, and those supporting young athletes during peak season.
