Why didn’t any of you tell me how brutal the job market is right now?!?

In this episode, we’re talking about rejection. I share my personal experience with the emotional rollercoaster of job hunting, unexpected setbacks, and the resilience that emerges from having all of my well-laid plans and expectations crumble down around me.

We explore the raw emotions that come with rejection (hello rejection depression era), the negative self talk, the fear and panic that does a number on your self esteem. And we chart a path forward so we can build more resilience in our lives through diversifying our identity, staying disciplined in our mindset, and identifying what we can control vs. what we can’t.

If you’re navigating the job market, or still grieving a rejection - I see you and you’re not the only one.
