Podcast Description:
Rejection is a universal experience, but its impact can feel especially profound for veterans navigating transitions into civilian life, relationships, or new careers. In this episode, we explore Rejection—what it is, why it hurts so much, and how to handle it with resilience and grace.

Each Weekly Muster begins with a 20-minute check-in, where participants share their personal wellness scores (on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 meaning "all is well"). This roundtable discussion creates a safe space for connection, reflection, and mutual support, setting the stage for today’s important conversation.

The second half of the session dives into understanding the nature of rejection and its impact on veterans, offering strategies to cope, grow, and move forward.
