This week on Barb Knows Best, Barb and Michelle explore the topic of rejection and how to navigate life’s unexpected detours. They discuss ways to shift your perspective when faced with rejection—whether in relationships, career opportunities, or personal goals—and how it can actually serve as guidance if we learn to surrender and trust the process. They also share personal stories that have helped them embrace rejection as a form of redirection, guiding them to where they’re truly meant to be on their journeys.
