30 Rejections That Changed My Life

Hey there,

30.

I was rejected for over 30 tech jobs between 2018 and 2020.

Each time, I felt unworthy.

I had launched 3 apps on the App Store. One of them reached top 3. Why wasn’t anyone "seeing" me?

Then in 2020, I decided to apply to Stanford University Graduate School of Business to get my MBA.

It was the only school I applied to. Round 3. The only problem was my GMAT was a 640.

Every admissions consultant told me the same thing—you have no chance in hell.

Could I face one more rejection? Everyone told me I’m crazy. What should I do.

I decided to apply and I got in. And ended up having some of the best 2 years of my life.

After graduation, I got to work as a Senior PM at Apple.

Funnily enough, in business school I wrote a one man show about how to trust yourself. I've since evolved that show into a coaching practice where I now teach others how to do the same.

Here are 3 lessons I want you to remember from this:

→ Dreams can change. Let them 🔮

→ If you are feeling rejected, remember that a rejection letter doesn’t mean you don’t have immense value and impact you can bring to the world 💯

→ Just because someone doesn’t “see you” doesn’t mean you’re not meant to be seen 👁️

I currently have 5 slots open for coaching clients in 2024. If you’re ready to invest in a coach that will help you design your future with clarity and confidence, grab your spot to book your free strategy call:
