Description

Academia is full of emotionally charged moments: harsh feedback, ignored contributions, paper rejections, awkward meetings, and rude people. In this episode, we explore what emotional triggers really are, why they show up so often in academic life, and how to handle them with awareness, compassion, and skill. You’ll learn practical tools for working with your reactions and staying grounded in the face of criticism, comparison, and rejection.
