Episode 43: Vulnerable solo podcast - rejection protection and dealing with shame
If you’ve ever struggled with rejection, if you’re carrying extra weight and don’t understand why, if you struggle to connect to others when you’re experiencing shame, this episode is for you.
After mentioning something I call “rejection protection” in a previous episode, so many of you got in touch to ask me to expand on it. So I am dropping into this more deeply by sharing my own journey with rejection. I also share how you can hold space for, honour and give love to your rejection wounds.
The episode explores…
The numerous unconscious ways we protect ourselves from rejection.
How rejection can cause us to physically store more body weight.
What to do if you feel overwhelmed with shame when your rejection wound is triggered.
How to heal these vulnerable places with the warmth and tenderness of self-love.
I want you to know - we all get rejected, no matter who we are or how far we’ve come. Even Aubrey Marcus gets rejected, as he told me recently on his retreat in Austin. Who knows if we can heal it completely or if we just learn how to be with it and develop self-loving practices rather than more rejection. Either way, we are on this wild journey together. Buckle up 😃
