New Wellness Podcast Health Hacks Debuts

 Health and wellness podcasts are more numerous than the health hacks passed out like candy by health and wellness podcasters on their shows. 

Despite the health and wellness podcast traffic jam, OpenMind has announced Health Hacks, a new original video podcast powered by PAVE Studios that launched on Tuesday, June 11.

Hosted by fifteen-time New York Times best-selling author 
Mark Hyman, MD, each episode will explore the art of living well as the leading Systems Medicine expert shares his unique perspectives on the latest health trends and their impact on our well-being. “Health Hacks” will deliver science-backed facts, break down myths and misinformation, and provide you with the tools you need to live a longer, healthier life.

New episodes will be available every Tuesday across all podcast platforms and YouTube.  

 On Monday, June 10th, OpenMind also launched OpenMind+, a new subscription available on Apple Podcasts. The channel will offer ad-free versions of all OpenMind shows including Health Hacks and Soothing Sleep.  In addition, OpenMind+ will feature a new exclusive weekly series launching today, Mini Meditations, a series that will also explore a variety of techniques to promote stress relief and mental wellness — from breath counting, to mindfulness, to calm visualizations.


“We're dedicated to building more than just a studio — we want to make OpenMind a vibrant and dynamic global community where individuals can explore, learn, and connect with a diverse range of purpose-driven creators and experts,” said Max Cutler, Founder of PAVE Studios. “This is the first step as we move towards offering an array of content to audiences, from original series to live experiences and beyond. Our vision is to create a multidimensional brand where wellness thrives, and individuals are inspired and empowered to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.”


Max Cutler has a podcasting history worthy of a Bravo reality TV show.

Cutler created Parcast in 2016, and under his leadership, Parcast became a powerhouse in the podcasting industry, introducing a range of immensely popular weekly shows across various genres and played a pivotal role in expanding podcasting internationally, overseeing the creation of 140+ adaptations in eight different languages. After three years of exponential growth, Spotify acquired Parcast in 2019 for a price close to $100 million.

Cutler most recently served as Spotify's VP, Head of Creator Content & Partnerships, where he headed the global team responsible for identifying, recruiting and overseeing creators on the platform, including Joe Rogan (The Joe Rogan Experience), Alex Cooper (Call Her Daddy), Emma Chamberlain (Anything Goes), and Dax Shepard (Armchair Expert).

In February 2023, Cutler resigned his position at Spotify. A few months later, in June 2023, Spotify closed Parcast during its retrenchment from its podcast aspirations.

Max Cutler then founded PAVE Studios with the marketing pitch: "The recently launched media company is building a unique ecosystem of genre-specific studios and working alongside the top creators to unveil an array of fresh content across video, audio, books, live experiences, merchandise and more. This is creators, content and community coming together, paving the way for a new era in media."
