Wait! Don't Do It!

S8E2: Wait! Don't Take It Personally!


Listen Later

Rejection? We’ve felt it. We’ve feared it. And we’ve definitely taken it personally—until now. This week, NuNu Paris & Raffi get real about the sting of rejection and how to bounce back with grace, delusion, and a little glitter.

From not getting cast in dream roles (NuNu, we're hugging you) to being passed over in D.C.’s nightlife and fitness scenes, we unpack what it means to be told “no” as queer POC in our 30s. Is rejection always a bad thing—or is it protection in disguise?

Plus, we take rejection for a spin in “Reject or Respect?”, a messy game where we judge questionable behavior and unhinged dating profiles like our healing depends on it (because it kind of does).

If you’ve ever been ghosted, benched, or professionally overlooked, this one’s for you. Don’t let the “no” stop your glow.

💡 “Rejection is redirection.”
