EP 17: Dealing with Criticism and Rejection

See this content in the original post

It doesn’t matter how successful you are, how much money you’ve made, or how many clients you have, NO ONE wants to deal with criticism or rejection. 

Yet, as bodyworkers, we often face it on a weekly, if not daily, basis.

Maybe our modality isn’t the right fit for a client, or we didn’t get all of the re-books that we wanted, or no one responded to one of our ads.

Whatever it is, it can really hurt. While this is a difficult topic, remember that you are not alone — we really ALL deal with it!

In this week’s episode I talk about dealing with criticism and rejection, in both your bodywork and your business. I’m excited for you to learn about the one major mindset shift that will make all of this far less painful. Give it a listen!


“Let your business be a conduit to be of service to those who ARE ready, and are just waiting for you to get over your fears about putting yourself out there.”


This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast:

  • Solidifying your boundaries with clients so that you can be more grounded and stop taking on the heavy emotions that they bring into their appointments. 

  • The “no credit, no blame” mantra, and how detaching from outcomes will re-energize you, so that your patients can do better, while YOU feel better about your work.

  • Actionable steps that you can take to move forward after rejection so that you can keep showing up for your clients and your business to build momentum day after day.
