This week on Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne continues the conversation around habits—those small, repeated actions that quietly shape the quality of our lives. Inspired by listener questions, she explores why our habits matter so much and where to even begin when it feels overwhelming to make positive changes. 

She introduces the concept of the “health hierarchy,” explaining how focusing on foundational habits can make adopting other healthy behaviors much easier. Dr. Robyne shares the small but transformative habits that shape her everyday life across the eight realms of wellness—covering everything from morning walks and “watering your mistakes” to practicing gratitude and making the invisible visible. She also gets candid about some of the habits that hold her back, reminding us that nobody has it perfectly figured out. 

This episode is filled with relatable stories, practical examples, and the encouragement you need to build habits that truly serve you.
