After Rejection: Guided Prompts
Rejection—whether in careers, writing, or relationships—feels like a direct critique of our self-worth. It triggers fear of inadequacy and social isolation. This reflection guide is designed to help you separate the rejection of a specific proposal or proposal from a rejection of your identity, allowing you to process the disappointment and find next steps.
