If we are honest with ourselves, we will likely find that the ONE thing pretty much ALL humans have in common is the fear of being rejected.
It can often feel like no matter how much we work on our confidence, how much we develop self love, how often we learn to be nice to ourselves and how much we learn to be kind and compassionate with ourselves - we still struggle with feeling like the world is going to crash down around us if we are disliked or misunderstood by others.
Many of us feel like no matter what we do, no matter how hard we try, no matter how much we accomplish that we never get to a place where we feel totally confident that we are good - because there is always someone or something out there reminding us that we have flaws, that we are inadequate, that we need to do more work to become 'better' and that what's good about us simply isn't actually good enough.
Many of us feel a constant hypervigilance around others - perpetually scanning the room to see how we are being received, looking for any signs that those around us may be feeling uncomfortable, and constantly feeling like we have to mold ourselves to fit into what everyone around us wants otherwise we feel deeply unsafe and like life isn't going to be ok.
Many of us feel like we can't show up authentically in relationships, because we are too busy trying to figure out what we have to do/be to be accepted and liked.
A lot of us feel like if we're not liked we won't be able to be ok. We may have clear ideas about what rejection means - that we will be alone forever, won't be able to find a place to live or work, that we won't be able to get our needs met - and for others it's more a vague sense that it would be 'bad' to be rejected - either way the fear tends to then become something that drives us do to all sorts of things that don't feel good.
So why are we all so afraid of rejection? What's the root of this fear? Is there any way to 'transcend' it so that we don't care what people think?
Today we're going to dive deep into the roots of this fear, so we can better understand what we are ACTUALLY afraid of, where the fear came from and how we can work with this fear to find a more authentic way of life that feels a lot better.

Remember, you don't have to do this self love path all alone.
Figuring out how to support ourselves, how to be on our own side, how to figure out what our emotions are saying, how to problem solve so we can build lives that work for us - it can be confusing.
That's why I've built the Mystery School - a three year self study program designed to take the guess work out of this path, so you can start to really connect to who YOU are, what YOU need, and how to create a life that supports that.
It's a program designed to help you begin thinking in 'systems' so you can be a part of the positive change we need to see on this planet.
It's all about finding compassion and working with curiosity so we can understand ourselves and life in general better, and so we can use that understanding to create BETTER models for LIFE!
I’d love to have you as part of the community - remember we also meet as a group once a month for an exclusive live chat where we address whatever's most pertinent for everyone at the time. The course itself is self-paced so you can work through it at whatever speed works for you - starting whenever you like!If you're interested, you can check out the school details here:
