Hello!

If you have ever applied  for jobs, fellowships, scholarships or even sent in your manuscript for publication to a journal of interest, then you might have received a rejection email...

 Receiving rejection emails/letters may sometimes make us doubt our potentials and lose confidence in ourselves. This could in turn greatly impact our career development and growth as we stop applying for opportunities with the fear that we might actually end up being rejected. Rejection can also greatly impact our mental health by causing stress, anxiety and sometimes depression.

In this episode, I am joined with Dorothy Mwale an environmentalist and climate justice advocate from Malawi. In our discussion, Dorothy shares her rejection experiences and how she was able to cope with the stress and anxiety caused by rejection and how we can build back better.

Enjoy!.
