Grant Writing Made Clear

Rejection—it’s the part of grant writing that no one wants to talk about, but nearly every grant writer will face. That dreaded "we regret to inform you" email can feel like a punch to the gut. But here’s the truth: rejection is not the end. In this episode of Grant Writing Made Clear, we’re flipping rejection on its head and turning it into a strategic advantage.

I’ll walk you through seven powerful steps to process rejection, extract valuable feedback, and come back stronger than ever. You’ll discover how to:

 ✔️ Reframe rejection as a "Next Opportunity" 

✔️ Process your emotions without getting stuck 

✔️ Use funder feedback to refine and improve your proposal 

✔️ Build resilience and keep pushing forward 

✔️ Explore new strategies, funders, and project pivots 

✔️ Incorporate AI to help with brainstorming

Plus, I’m sharing personal experiences, real-world examples, and my favorite self-care strategies to keep you motivated along the way.
