67. My Program Launch Failed (So Let's Talk About Rejection)
Update: 2025-09-08
Description
In this solo episode, I’m getting honest about one of the hardest parts of being a dancer (and a human) - rejection. I recently launched a brand new mentorship program - and it totally flopped. So I’m sharing with you the process I used to coach myself through the disappointment and the lessons I learned along the way.
Key Points in this Episode:
- Why rejection doesn’t define your worth as a dancer or artist
- The hidden wins in experiences that don’t go as planned
- Common mistakes dancers (and entrepreneurs) make when putting themselves out there
- How imposter syndrome can sabotage opportunities - and how to push back
- Why you need to talk about your work way more than you think
- How to ask for feedback and what to do when you don’t get it
- Reframing rejection as redirection in your career and life
Tune in to talk through the emotions, the mindset shifts, and the practical lessons that can help dancers (and anyone pursuing a big dream) handle rejection with resilience.
