Embrace Rejection & attract AMAZING Opportunities with Liz Mosley

Here's the thing nobody tells you: you're not afraid of rejection. You're afraid of what rejection will mean about you. And that story you're telling yourself? It's costing you the opportunities you actually want!

Bummer, right?

This week, I chatted with Brand Designer Liz Mosley on the podcast. She's a designer who's been in business for over a decade, killing it with her clients, speaking at conferences, growing her personal brand like crazy.

But she wasn't always like this. Three years ago, she thought she'd take a punt and pitch to big personal brand in her space to be on her podcast and rejected!

And that one rejection? It became the voice in her head saying: “Don't bother. You're not big enough.”

In this conversation, we're talking about Liz's rejection challenge - where she set herself the goal of getting 100 rejections in six months. What happened next is incredible. She started getting more yes answers than no answers, her business shifted, her mindset transformed, and her visibility skyrocketed.

We dive into:
Why most of us are afraid to ask for what we want
How rejection is just information, not a reflection of your worth
The exact mindset shifts that changed Liz's business
Why sharing your story (including the hard parts) makes you magnetic
How one rejection from Chris turned into something so much bigger
The power of following up (even though it feels cringe)
Real examples of opportunities that came from simply asking

If you're holding back from pitching for opportunities, asking for collaborations, or putting yourself out there because you're afraid of hearing no - this episode is for you.
