Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by Jason Saltzman—entrepreneur, MIT REAP co-chair, global mentor, and founder of Relief. Rather than diving into his exits or startup strategies, Jason unpacks the power of the first hour of your day. He shares how small, intentional morning habits—like making your bed or walking your dog mindfully—can radically reshape your mindset, enhance productivity, and help you thrive amidst chaos. This conversation is a masterclass on grounding, presence, and the link between routine and resilience. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, this episode will offer practical insights to regain control and move with purpose.

About the Guest:
Jason Saltzman is a seasoned entrepreneur with two successful exits, co-chair of MIT’s REAP program, and a mentor for founders at Techstars and beyond. He blends hard-earned entrepreneurial experience with mindfulness, advocating for the power of small habits in managing anxiety, building resilience, and staying intentional in high-pressure environments.

Key Takeaways:

• Mornings are your greatest opportunity to reset and reclaim focus.

• Mental clarity begins with micro-habits—like making your bed with presence.

• True resilience is built before adversity hits, through consistent intention-setting.

• Writing down goals, expressing gratitude, and grounding yourself daily creates mental armor.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with elite behavioral coach and ex-Navy weapons tech Clay Moffat, author of The Trust Trap. Together, they dismantle the myth of confidence and reveal why commitment—not confidence—is the true foundation for trust, transformation, and self-leadership. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in burnout, people-pleasing, or performance mode, this conversation will cut through the noise and call you back to your own authority.

About the Guest:
Clay Moffat is a high-performance coach, former Navy weapons technician, and the unapologetically direct author of The Trust Trap. He helps elite performers, leaders, and founders navigate betrayal, self-sabotage, and the illusion of confidence by teaching how to rebuild internal trust and commit to uncomfortable growth. Known for his no-fluff coaching and psychological insights, Clay’s mission is to wake people up to their own patterns and reclaim their power.

Key Takeaways:

• Confidence is emotional and unreliable—commitment is structural and sustainable.

• Most people wait to “feel ready,” but action creates confidence—not the other way around.

• The nervous system defaults to familiarity—even if it’s destructive—due to evolutionary wiring.

• Outsourcing sanity looks like over-validation, avoidance, and attachment to external systems or roles.

• Leaders burning out often hide behind performance, micromanagement, and a fear of slowing down.

• Rebuilding trust in yourself starts by showing up consistently, not waiting for a perfect moment.

Because every story matters and yours could be the one that lights the way!

In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, host Sana sits down with Mridula Agarwal, creator of the Soul Rebirth Process and founder of the iReAwake Method, to explore why so many people still feel stuck despite therapy, meditation, and self-help tools. Mridula shares her deeply personal journey from building a wellness empire to facing collapse, depression, and the challenge of her son’s autism diagnosis — and how these experiences led her to uncover the deeper layers of healing often overlooked.

We dive into energy blocks, subconscious scripts, ancestral wounds, and why lasting transformation requires clearing all levels of the mind, body, and spirit simultaneously. This conversation challenges the belief that “time heals all wounds” and reveals how you can truly break free from cycles of pain, overwhelm, and stagnation.

If you’ve been “doing all the right things” yet still feel stuck, this episode is your map to uncovering the root cause and reclaiming your full potential.

About the Guest: 

Mridula Agarwal is a healer, energy worker, and creator of the Soul Rebirth Process and iReAwake Method. Drawing on over 24 years of experience in energy healing, she helps people release deep-seated emotional pain, karmic imprints, and subconscious conditioning to live in alignment with their true selves. Her work spans chakra clearing, ancestral healing, Akashic record insights, and guiding clients through profound life transformations.

Key Takeaways:

• Most people carry energy blocks—unresolved emotional imprints, karmic memories, and ancestral patterns—that keep them stuck despite therapy or mindfulness practices.

• Healing requires addressing all layers simultaneously: subconscious mind, chakras, past life imprints, and ancestral wounds.

• Surface-level solutions can bring temporary relief but rarely remove the “root knife” causing ongoing pain.

• High achievers often feel blocks more intensely because pushing past limits triggers deeper life tests.

• Everyone’s energy script is different—your challenges match your soul blueprint and destiny.

• The iReAwake Method blends energy attunements, soul part retrieval, and subconscious reprogramming for lasting results.

• True transformation happens when you integrate all parts of yourself—logical, intuitive, strong, and empathetic—rather than living in fragments.

• As a healer, maintaining energetic boundaries is critical to avoid absorbing clients’ trauma.

• The universe often conspires with your unacknowledged desires, even if it looks like loss or breakdown at first.

• Recognizing and breaking toxic self-help myths (“just endure,” “it’s your karma”) is essential for reclaiming your agency in healing.
