Embracing the Sting— Overcoming Rejection and Betrayal with Dr. Oliver Reid

Rejection and betrayal are harrowing experiences, but they do not define an individual’s worth or future. Though they cause emotional turbulence, they can also lead to an improved understanding of oneself, resilience building, and personal growth. By not trying to dodge the bullet, but embracing the sting and using it as a springboard, we can overcome the discouragement and hurt from these experiences. 

This week, Daniel interviews Dr. Oliver Reid, the CEO, and Owner of I Am a Solution Consulting Firm, LLC. Join the conversation as they share lessons about outliving the storm, taking ownership of the trauma, giving grace in the thought process, the coward’s way out, seeing the good in everybody, finding a place where you are appreciated and not tolerated, the power of persistence and letting go, and saying “no” to retaliation.

"You're not what you touched or what has touched you. But you are imprinted by what you hold on to.” —Dr. Oliver Reid
