Your morning sets the tone for everything that follows. Start it in chaos—scrolling, rushing, reacting—and you’re already behind. Start it with intention, and you create clarity, focus, and momentum before the world even asks for your attention.
In this episode of The Better Path Podcast, we explore the science, history, and habits behind powerful morning rituals. From Hal Elrod’s Miracle Morning to timeless cultural traditions, you’ll discover why the first hour of your day matters more than you think. You’ll also hear examples of how simple shifts transformed daily life for others—and get practical steps to design a routine that works for you.
By the end, you’ll see that owning your morning isn’t about perfection—it’s about starting with purpose, so the rest of your day follows suit.
