In this episode of NUGGETS, Pellegrino and Francois explore the deep human need for belonging. From Brené Brown’s powerful words — “In the absence of love and belonging, there is only suffering” — to the famous Cyberball experiment that shows how rejection registers in the brain as real pain, this conversation gets real about loneliness, friendship, and connection.
Why belonging hurts when it’s missing.
How we can signal to others:
We are connected.
We share a future.
I care about you.
You matter.
And why in a world of screens, likes, and fake connections, nothing replaces the power of genuine human presence.
🎧 Tune in and discover why belonging isn’t just “nice to have” — it’s survival.
