In this episode, my guest is Dr. Ron Siegel, the author of the new book The Extraordinary Gift of Being Ordinary. Dr. Siegel is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School, where he has taught for over three decades. He is a longtime student of mindfulness meditation and is a faculty and board member at the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy.
In the conversation, Ron and I discuss: 
The good news of being ordinary
Why we compare ourselves with others
How to think about self-esteem
The role of mindfulness and self-acceptance
How to navigate disappointments
Wisdom in daily life and much more
