Rejection hurts. But what if it’s actually redirecting you toward something better?

In this episode, I share a personal story about the time I lost what I thought was my dream home—and how that painful “no” made space for an even better “yes.” It’s a reminder that rejection isn’t always the end of the road. Sometimes, it’s a protective nudge toward something more aligned.

Whether you're facing job search setbacks, supporting your kids through disappointment, or just feeling the sting of something not going your way, this episode offers a gentle but honest perspective on how to process rejection without getting stuck in it.

We’ll talk about:

• Why “rejection is redirection” has become a guiding mindset for me
• How to honor your feelings while staying open to new possibilities
• What this means for career returners, especially when job applications go silent

If you’re in the messy middle of your next chapter, this conversation will help you reframe rejection as a sacred detour—not a dead end.

Ready to shift your perspective? Hit play—and let’s talk about what might be waiting for you on the other side of that closed door.
