Hey y'all, and welcome back to another episode of "This is for Us." As always, thank you so much for choosing to hang out with me and spend your time with me. I am so thankful for that. Today, I wanted to talk about something that so many of us need to hear—something that I still struggle with and have to remind myself of constantly: "Rejection equals protection." It's a simple yet powerful concept that can change how we perceive life's challenges and setbacks.

Self-Worth and Happiness    - Encouraged listeners to live for themselves and prioritize their happiness without letting it depend on external validation.    - Discussed the importance of respecting oneself and setting boundaries in relationships.

Real-Life Examples    - Shared a friend's story about dealing with mixed signals in a relationship and how setting boundaries and seeking clarity can lead to better outcomes.    - Emphasized that the right person will not leave you questioning your worth.
