Dr. Dan and Dr. Greg Walton discuss Greg’s new book Ordinary Magic: The Science of How We Can Achieve Big Change with Small Acts. On today’s episode, Dr. Walton explains his vision of what is possible for our relationships, communities, institutions, and the world. The interview reveals that even when we feel trapped, we have vast opportunities for change and we can free ourselves.
In his literally “life-changing” work and book, Greg reveals how through “ordinary magic” we can create ordinary experiences that help us set aside the ordinary worries of life to unleash extraordinary change. Dr. Walton and Dr. Dan dig into how and why these “wise interventions” can help us chart new trajectories for our lives.
Listeners will leave this episode with the knowledge that we all have more power to improve our lives than we realize - and that we can become psychologically wiser humans by using Ordinary Magic.
Greg Walton, Ph.D. developed the concept of “wise interventions” and has led much of the groundbreaking research. Dr. Walton is the co- director of the Dweck- Walton Lab, the Michael Forman University Fellow in Undergraduate Education, and a professor of psychology at Stanford University.
