EP40: Redirection is NOT Rejection

Rejection can be hard to process. It is easy to attach our professional experience to the identity of who we are, so when we are rejected, it feels personal. But in this episode, Kimberly asks you to reframe your mindset. Rejection is merely redirection, and the alternate outcome might just be better than what you intended.    KEY POINTS: - Rejection can feel personal, but it’s not! - Kimberly’s hardest professional rejection - Why you always need to get it in writing  - Confidence comes from not being afraid of a no - How is this rejection redirecting you?    QUOTABLES: “​​Rejection is merely a redirection, a course correction to your destiny.”     Have career and leadership development questions?
