Welcome to Episode 13 of the Medmastery Show. I hope you had a great summer and go with energy and inspiration into the new academic year. Inspiration and energy is what you’ll get from today’s interview. I promise you that. There are lots of nuggets of wisdom that you can apply and use in your own life. Today’s guest is Dr. Dan Siegel. He’s an internationally acclaimed psychiatrist and New York Times bestselling author. He received his medical degree from Harvard Medical School and then trained in pediatrics and psychiatry at UCLA. Dr. Siegel is an internationally acclaimed mindfulness expert and is known for his work on the new field of Interpersonal Neurobiology. You’ll learn more about it in the interview. He received many honors some of which include the UCLA psychiatry department's teaching award and several honorary fellowships for his work as director of UCLA's training program in child psychiatry. He is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and is the Executive Director of the Mindsight Institute. He has lectured for folks like the Dalai Lama, Pope John Paul II, Google University, the Minister of Education of Singapore and the Public School Superintendents of the United States. So you see, there are lots of people who trust his advice and whose lives he helped to improve. I could go on and on raving about Dan. Instead I suggest you listen to and learn from the man himself.
