Is rejection sensitivity making work feel impossible? If you find yourself avoiding feedback, overanalyzing emails, or convinced you're about to get fired over a simple mistake, you're not alone. Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) can have a major impact on your professional life, but there are ways to manage it.
In this episode, I cover:
- What RSD really is and why it’s not just about past trauma
- How RSD shows up in the workplace (and why it makes teamwork, feedback, and self-advocacy so hard)
- The connection between RSD, burnout, and nervous system regulation
- Why traditional talk therapy doesn’t help and what actually does
- Steps you can take to manage RSD and build confidence at work
