EPISODE #50 - Rejection Sensitivity

EPISODE #50 – Rejection Sensitivity

On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast I dive deep into the topic of rejection sensitivity.

In the episode, I share about what rejection sensitivity is exactly, some of the signs of rejection sensitivity, and the difference between disagreement and rejection (and why they’re important).

If you’ve ever avoided a disagreement for fear of being rejected, walked on eggshells, or you or your partner have an intense reaction to a disagreement, this episode is for you.
