From journaling and physical practices to leaning on community and social support, they each bring their unique perspectives and stories.

    Together, they explore not only the emotional toll rejection can take, but also the ways in which talking about it openly can help inspire a stronger sense of belonging, resilience and understanding within our creative community.
