NUGGETS is a weekly podcast about human behaviour, emotional intelligence, mindset shifts, psychology, and personal growth — designed to help you think clearer, communicate better, and lead with more confidence.
In every short, practical episode, Pellegrino and Francois explore the ideas that shape how we live and work: motivation, stress, happiness, relationships, decision-making, leadership, communication, culture, and the stories we tell ourselves.
We break big concepts into simple insights you can use immediately — to improve your mindset, boost emotional resilience, increase self-awareness, and show up as your best self in everyday life.
If you're interested in leadership development, self-improvement, emotional intelligence training, better communication, or understanding why people behave the way they do, you're in the right place. Modern life is noisy. NUGGETS cuts through the noise — giving you clarity, grounded thinking, and wisdom you can use in minutes.
Because one good insight can change everything.

Francois is out with a heroic case of man flu (he’ll survive), so today it’s just Pellegrino — alone in his man cave — reflecting on a moment that changed his entire working life.
This episode is about identity, reinvention, and the psychological power of acceptance. Not the passive kind. The kind that creates clarity — and movement.
Pellegrino shares how, when COVID hit and his entire calendar vanished in a week, he didn’t just lose work — he lost identity. And how a forgotten guest room in his cellar became the place where he rebuilt everything from scratch.
In this episode you’ll learn:
This short, intimate Nugget sets up next week’s episode on Control — why humans hate powerlessness, why uncertainty triggers ancient threat systems, and how to reclaim agency in everyday life.
Francois returns next week… assuming he survives the man flu.
