## Resource

In this episode, Amb. Elisha sits down with Andrea Waltz, co-author of Go for No, to discuss why rejection is not the opposite of success—it is part of the process. Andrea shares how the Go for No philosophy was born, why people fear rejection, how to separate a "no" from your self-worth, and practical ways to build courage in business and life. You'll learn: • Why successful people hear "no" more often • How to stop taking rejection personally • The danger of giving yourself a "no" • Practical ways to build courage • The power of developing a high "No Quotient" Key Takeaway: You cannot reach more yeses unless you're willing to hear more noes.
