992. REJECTION Isn't Personal. It Is An Opinion & Has A Number.
About this episode
Rejection isn’t personal.
It’s an opinion.
And it has a number.
In this episode, I’m breaking down a powerful idea from Jia Jiang’s book Rejection Proof: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through 100 Days of Rejection.
Most of us treat rejection like a verdict on our worth.
It isn’t.
And in this episode, I’ll explain why people respond the way they do—what their “no” is actually based on—and the surprising truth behind rejection that most people never realize:
It usually has nothing to do with you.
So when someone says “no,” the real question becomes: how do you handle it?
Do you rush into the ask just to get rejection out of the way?
Or do you stay curious, confident, and creative enough to work through it?
Because rejection isn’t universal.
Not everyone will say no.
You just have to keep asking until you find the one who says yes.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to see rejection through a completely different lens—and why understanding this shift can change how you ask, how you sell, and how you pursue what you want in life.
