Rejection Hurts. Miscommunication leads to misunderstandings and hurt feelings, feeling disrespected and taking things personally. • Are you ‘filling in the blanks’ with your own assumptions? • Do feelings of rejection turn into self-blaming, shaming and self-rejection? • Is resentment growing in your work or personal relationships, barely leaving room for connection or intimacy? And if you are ADHD, you likely already know how rejection sensitivity affects you.• Consider how you will benefit from practicing respectfully direct communication and effective checking-out skills? • Let's tap into and enhance your resilience!
I can help you not take rejection and disappointment so personally. Showing you how to recognize early messages which complicate your relationships and goals. Teaching you to ’walk alongside yourself' – mindfully noticing and naming thoughts, feelings and actions. Once it’s no longer a blind spot and you can ‘see’ it, you can make a choice to make a change.
I love sharing the ideas I’ve developed over 35 years. That’s why 20 years ago I wrote my first book – starting the conversation on rejection and taking things personally. I look forward to working with you on your relationship and workplace challenges. What are your concerns and questions? Let’s talk about working together to make a difference for you.
