About this episode

This episode provides a tactical guide to building resilience against rejection in dating, empowering listeners to pursue their desires without fear.

Dating in your main character energy means more access to everything you want. More connection. More aliveness. More of the good stuff. It also means more rejection. BOO. Rejection doesn't have to mean anything about you. It's a filter, getting the wrong people out of the way. And the fear of it is one of the top forces stopping people from going after what they want. This episode is your rejection resilience guide. So you become unstoppable in your dating life.
