Let’s be honest—rejection hurts. Whether it’s the guy who ghosts you, the invite that never comes, or watching someone else get the promotion you prayed for… it stings. But here’s the real truth: the most painful rejection isn’t when they say no—it’s when you reject yourself.
In this episode, I’m showing you how self-rejection sneaks in, how it’s holding you back, and what to do to stop it. You’ll learn how to stop making rejection mean something’s wrong with you—and how to start having your own back, no matter what.
Because when you accept you, love you, and believe in you? Rejection loses its sting.

094. The Rejection That Hurts Most? The One You're Doing to Yourself!

You’re doing everything right—but still single.
You’ve prayed. Stayed faithful.  Attended BYU.
And yet… no husband. No temple sealing. No timeline that makes sense.
You sit in church surrounded by couples and families, wondering where you fit—and if you even matter.
You’ve heard the talks. You strive to keep the commandments. Tried to stay hopeful.
But deep down, you can’t shake the ache:
🌀 Did I miss my chance?
🌀 Am I broken—or worse, forgotten?
🌀 What does this mean for my exaltation… and about my worth?
If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not crazy. You’re not broken.  And you’re not alone.
Welcome to The Single LDS Woman—a podcast for women like you who are navigating the complicated, often painful reality of being single in a family-focused church.
In this podcast, you’ll find:
✨ Real talk for LDS singles
✨ Faith-based life coaching grounded in LDS doctrine
✨ Mindset tools that actually work (no toxic positivity here)
✨ Honest conversations about chastity, loneliness, worthiness, and eternal marriage
I’m Sharon Lamar—a certified life coach and faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I didn’t get married until I was 52.
I know the questions that keep you up at night.
I’ve lived the waiting, the wondering, and the quiet heartbreak.
But I also discovered something life-changing:
You can stop waiting to be happy and still be faithful.
You can build a life you love—even while hoping for something more.
And most of all, you can trust God and trust yourself again.
💡 In this podcast, I’ll teach you how—with proven faith-based tips and tools, self-coaching strategies, and a reminder of who you really are.
Whether you’re never married, divorced, widowed—or not even LDS but still feeling all of this—this podcast is for you.
Because this isn’t just about your relationship status.
It’s about reclaiming your self-confidence, living happy now even while wanting more, and remembering your worth.
So… grab your Diet Coke 😉, pop in your earbuds, and let’s talk.
Friend to friend. Sister to sister.
