Summary

You know… I’ve felt like an outsider most of my life. Lil’ bit on the outside. And of course I’ve had my share of hard No’s and reeejection.

And… but… each rebuff and snub is taking us closer to our shadow territory, to the beautiful, unhealed stuff that’s waiting to be healed.

I recently taught a class on rejection in our Heart Centered Membership and it was a tender one. We’ve strung the diamonds for you:

In Eps 98 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE I’m teaching on:

The meta-function of rejection. Every spurn, every rebuff points to our inability to accept all parts of ourselves
Exactly why rejection is an advance class in self-acceptance
How we stand in our power to heal from rejection, without bypassing or bravado
How to choose responsiveness and consciousness over numbing out and running away.

This is the work. This is how we transform our repetitive pain into deep esteem.

Mentioned in this episode:

The Heart Centered Membership. A place you can come up for air. We meet LIVE 2xs/month. You have access to ALL of our classes, spiritual practices + rituals, meditations, playlists, mantras. Ready to go where the love is? Come in! ($25/month. Or drop into any class for $20)

Eps 93: 10 Reasons We Isolate. Isolation has shadows and light. Fear driven or heart centered? Showing up imperfectly (please let go of perfectionism) is part of the isolation solution.

0:05.3	I have a question for you.
0:06.6	How many ways do you think you have been or can get rejected?
0:13.6	Kicked out of the club, pushed out of the clique, out of the class.
0:17.9	You know, you're not quite invited to the potluck.
0:20.7	Or you get dumped,
0:22.1	broken up with, or betrayed in supposed safe spaces, jobs end, all those things.
0:31.1	I, myself, have felt like an outsider for most of my life.
0:37.1	I've had my share of hard nose and rejection.
0:42.7	I felt the sting. I felt the loneliness. And I get now that every rejection was a doorway. It just
0:50.7	like pushed me into it. It felt like pretty intense compression and initiation
0:56.8	at times, but here's a thing. I'll give you the diamond right now. Rejection is a life class
1:03.0	in self-acceptance. Let's get into it. What you're about to hear are the highlights from a class on healing rejection that I gave
1:13.2	within our heart-centered membership.
1:15.7	And it was deep and it was really tender work.
1:19.6	The premise and the prayer is that we can heal from rejection.
1:25.0	And we can choose responsiveness and consciousness in the face of rejection.
1:31.4	That's how we bridge our way to self-acceptance. And that's how we get to freedom and power
1:37.1	and love and clarity of mind and more creativity. Here we go. Every rebuff, every snub, all the words we went through the loss,
1:51.5	the dejection, the resentment, unmitigated despondency is a call, is a lesson as a master
1:57.1	class, and profound self-acceptance. That's the function. Rejection serves a higher purpose.
2:04.6	It's an in-road in. Okay, so let me walk you through five points. So one, wanting to be seen
