Description

Ever wondered how to stay confident when life—and work—keep handing you rejection? In episode 61 of Be the Sun, Not the Salt, Dr. Harry Cohen and Connie Fontaine answer the tough question: “How Do I… Keep My Confidence Despite Rejection?”

Here’s what you’ll hear:

  • Relatable strategies for bouncing back after setbacks (even when the numbers feel stacked against you)
  • The “three P’s” mindset trick that keeps rejection from getting personal or invasive
  • How to use self-talk and action to reframe your perspective and stay motivated
  • Real stories and practical ways to turn every “swing and a miss” into a chance to learn, grow, and get back up at bat
  • Reminders on why reaching out to colleagues, leaning on your support squad, and sharing this journey can make all the difference

If your role (or your life) brings more rejection than applause, this episode is full of sticky, science-backed wisdom, practical encouragement, and the kind of relatable perspective you’ll want to share with your team, your partner, or anyone needing a confidence boost.

(Mini “How Do I…” episode—perfect for anyone facing challenges in sales, interviews, creative work, or just everyday life.)
