What happens after the moment you wish you could erase? This week, Sarah is joined by writer and publicist Alice Draper, founder of Hustling Writers and host of the podcast 'My Rejection Story'. Alice has built a powerful space where people share the “no's,” and today, she’s helping us unpack how to face rejection without losing ourselves in it, which is often very easy to do, as it's the first thing we want to do as humans.
Together, Sarah and Alice explore the complex terrain of rejection, embarrassment, and shame, plus they tackle how we can learn to navigate it without letting it define us. Additionally, they discuss the science behind why rejection can feel so brutal, including how our brains process it similarly to physical pain. From missed opportunities to public mistakes, this episode is a reminder that resilience is not about avoiding failure, but learning to keep showing up anyway. For anyone carrying the weight of a cringeworthy moment, this conversation offers both compassion and hope from a personal place!
