I’m so excited for today’s episode because I am talking about an important part of any thought leader’s journey. And that is how to navigate a rejection.

 

Every speaker eventually has the experience of not being chosen to take a stage. This is normal. And the art of responding to this rejection can be learned.

 

Recently, I addressed this with the members of The Big Talk Academy. The news of who would be taking the stage for our Virtual Showcase was met with a range of responses. And today’s conversation is a part of the coaching call where we discussed these responses.

 

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • Why no one can take your voice from you
  • What goes into a producing a show and why certain speakers are chosen
  • The reason you don’t get feedback from your applications
  • How to respond to organizers and event producers when you are not chosen for a stage and why this matters
