Advanced English Learning | Why does rejections hurt so much | The Slime's Podcast

See all vocabulary in this podcast at https://slimeskool.com/podcast/reject... A slow, clearly-spoken deep dive into why social rejection physically hurts — neural reuse theory, the DACC alarm, and the emotional cascade that follows — and then the training that makes it survivable: the Stoic dichotomy of control, premeditation of evils, the discipline of assent, voluntary discomfort, the view from above, plus the clinical data behind them and the Islamic parallels of tawakkul and sabr. Made for advanced English learners; every new word is unpacked as it comes up.
