EP 258: How to Get Over Your Fear of Rejection with Tracy
b'
This call is about recognizing the value of your unique gifts. Today\\u2019s caller, Tracy, believes she has difficulty being vulnerable and thinks it is holding her business back. But, as we explore her childhood experience, we discover that she is playing out old programming, feeling like she didn\\u2019t matter as the youngest sibling in her family. Her fear of rejection may be keeping her from getting what she wants.

There are parts of us that are just us or the things that make us unique. We may not be as vulnerable as the next person, as funny as the next person, or as creative or outspoken or extroverted as other people are. When we measure ourselves against others it can make us feel like something is wrong with us.\\xa0

It can create blind spots or judgments of things we have taken on from society. And one of the things so many of us, especially in this world of personal development, have taken on is the expectation that we need to be vulnerable
to be fully seen.

Vulnerability needs to be earned. Vulnerability is incredible and necessary, however, it\\u2019s not something we just give away. It\\u2019s OK that it has to be earned. It makes it more authentic.
