This One Shift Can Change Your Life Trajectory | Dr. Gregory Walton on Belonging, Belief & Growth
Episode Overview:
What if the biggest shifts in your life didn’t require radical change—but just a new way of seeing your challenges?
In this episode of the Emotional Longevity Podcast, Dr. Elisha Goldstein sits down with Dr. Gregory Walton—Stanford professor, belonging researcher, and co-author of Ordinary Magic—to explore the life-changing science behind tiny psychological shifts.
From a 4-year-old’s moral outrage to groundbreaking work on belonging, growth mindset, and emotional spirals, Greg reveals how simple interventions—like reframing feedback or affirming connection before conflict—can reshape relationships, motivation, and even educational equity.
We dive into research-backed micro-interventions, including how to help kids believe in themselves, why self-worth is the hidden engine behind behavior change, and how storytelling and support can reverse downward spirals.
This conversation is packed with powerful strategies to build emotional resilience—and to spiral up.
