Summary

In this week’s episode, Barb and Michelle dive into the often painful topic of rejection. Many of us live our lives trying to avoid being rejected at all costs. In this episode, we’ll talk about how to reframe rejection and remember that it’s not rejection, it’s redirection.

Follow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at https://kite.link/barb-knows-best.

Key Points:

Ask yourself important questions and get in touch with your emotions.
Don’t beat yourself up, cultivate that self-compassion.
Try to see the situation from all perspectives.
Let go of control.
Trust that what is meant for you will find you.
Act as if. If you really are searching for something in your life, act as if you already have it.
Find a trusted support system to help lift your spirits.
Be grounded and confident in yourself.
