What if a happier, healthier, more meaningful life isn't something you simply stumble into—but something you can intentionally design?

At 65, Dr. Brian Hill is preparing to climb Mount Rainier. He's also a professor at BYU who teaches a popular course called Creating a Good Life Through Experience Design. His work explores a powerful question: What can we do today to create a better life—not just for now, but for the years ahead?

In this episode of Live Longer. Live Stronger., Brad and Keros Lowder sit down with Brian to explore the science of happiness, the importance of purpose, and how the experiences we create can shape our well-being as we age.

In this conversation, we explore:

• The power of having a goal: Why training for a big adventure can improve your health, motivation, and sense of purpose.

• The science of happiness: What positive psychology teaches us about building a more satisfying life.

• Relationships and longevity: Why strong social connections are so important to happiness and healthy aging.

• Finding purpose after retirement: How to keep contributing, serving, and growing in the next chapter of life.

• The power of your strengths: Why doing more of what you're naturally good at may be a better path to meaning than constantly trying to fix your weaknesses.

• Simple ways to be happier today: Practice gratitude, spend time outdoors, forgive yourself and others, and learn to challenge pessimistic thoughts.

One of Brian's most important lessons is that a good life requires more than pleasure or comfort. It also needs meaning, accomplishment, connection, and opportunities to contribute to something bigger than ourselves.

You don't have to climb Mount Rainier to put these ideas into practice. You can start today.
