Rejection is a painful emotion. Whether it’s the little girl on the playground who is overlooked or a dream job that slipped away, it’s hurtful. And its effects can be lasting.

When I first began thinking of this topic, I related it to estrangement. If you’ve been rejected in a relationship, you know the pain and triggers that can keep you from moving forward in life.

As a woman who has had a fair share of estrangement. I feel your pain. I know the depth of emotions and the negative self-talk that looms. And you feel as if its just you. None of your friends are experiencing this level of rejection. Or are they?

I’m learning that rejection is a universal issue. Its target isn’t just women but children, siblings, parents, grandparents, co-workers and well – everyone.

So how do you deal with this rejection? What mindset needs to shift? What behaviors can change so that you can live your life to the fullest without guilt and shame so that you can move on? I’ll share that with you today.
