Dear Skylar, instead of wrapping myself in that crazy quilt of rejections I plan to take it to the backyard and burn it! Many thanks for sharing your story. 🙏🏽 It was a blessing to hear it. 💥🤎

I’ve been facing constant rejection in relationships and my career. It’s hard to keep getting up and moving forward. Thanks for the push.

Amazing and very true I loved how she described boundaries as “borders and supportive” not controlling and restricting.

Thank you Skylar, for describing a heartful comment that oriented your inner compass to courage, self love and joy. Sending good wishes. 🌻

So good! I like how she brought up the idea of rejection being someone else’s truth… often it doesn’t have anything to really do with you personally. Sometimes it is just where the other person is in their life.

It’s amazing that I didn’t even realize I was owning all those rejections and limiting my opportunities by thinking I’m not good enough. I’ve been wanting to change careers for a long time and this is what has prevented me from taking that risk. I decided to take the risk and it looks like I might have a new career. Thank you for another enlightening and powerful talk ❤️

Thank you for reminding me that rejection is not about me. Rejection is another persons truth and I can see that as a chance to find the next best step to the next best thing in my life. I really appreciate the comparison of rejection being a broad statement and a win being a narrow statement of our value. I will now longer internalize another’s truth as mine or about me.
