Rejections and Successes of High Achieving Masters' Students Part 2/2 (ft. UCalgary Master of Management Cohort '25-26)

In this special two-part episode series, I’m joined by 12 Master of Management students to talk about rejection, uncertainty, success, failure, and figuring out what comes next.Across these conversations, we explore how to:See rejection as feedback rather than a reflection of your worth or abilityTake action instead of waiting for the perfect momentTrust yourself through uncertainty and keep goingLean on your community and celebrate your successesYour value extends far beyond your job, achievements, and accomplishmentsRemember that one rejection or bad experience does not define what comes nextMost importantly, rejection is something we all experience—and there is no way around it. You have to go through it.Thank you to all 12 Master of Management students who shared their experiences, perspectives, and insights on rejection and navigating uncertainty.
