Description

Hey besties! This week, we’re tackling something everyone in media faces—rejection and comparison. Whether it’s ghosted pitches, missed opportunities, or seeing someone else land your dream gig, we’ve all been there. The truth is, these feelings are normal, but they don’t have to hold you back. We’re sharing our personal experiences, mindset shifts, and strategies to help you move forward with confidence.

In this episode, we chat about:

  • Why rejection doesn’t mean you’re not good enough

  • How to shift from comparison to collaboration

  • The importance of trusting that the right opportunities will come your way

  • Mindset hacks to keep you focused and confident

  • Practical steps to stay in your lane and keep growing

Takeaways:

  • Rejection isn’t personal—it’s just part of the industry.

  • Collaboration over competition creates more opportunities for everyone.

  • Mindset is everything—how you think determines how you show up.

  • Keep pitching, keep showing up, and trust that success is on its way.

This one’s for anyone who has ever felt like they weren’t enough—spoiler: you totally are. Listen now and let’s shift that energy!
