Episode 220: Managing the Fear of Rejection—with Deb Zahn

Fear of rejection can prevent you from having a successful consulting business. You think about reaching out to someone for business or doing marketing, but you stop cold because you're afraid that someone will say no. But that will prevent you from having the consulting business and life you want or from doing work that you are meant to do.


In this Craft of Consulting Podcast episode, I talk about how to recognize and manage the fear of rejection, so it doesn't get in your way.
