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.
