Episode 43 - How to Stop Taking “No” So Personally

If you’ve ever poured your heart into an offer, hit “post”... and heard nothing but crickets—this one’s for you. I’m walking you through the mindset shifts that help you stop spiraling when someone says “no,” so you can keep showing up, selling confidently, and actually growing your business (without taking every rejection personally). We’re talking through thought models, sales psychology, and practical reframes you can use when your brain wants to say, “It’s not working.” Because a 'no' doesn't mean your offer sucks—or that you should quit. Whether you're in launch mode, navigating sales conversations, or just trying to put yourself out there more—this episode will give you the reset you need to rewire your thoughts and build resilience in your business. In this episode: ✅ The real reason we make rejection mean something about us ✅ What to do when you get a “no” (and how to respond without spiraling) ✅ How to create a new thought model that actually keeps you in motion ✅ 4 practical steps to rebuild confidence after rejection ✅ Why tracking your no’s might be the secret to more yes’s You don’t need to fear the no.

Episode #41 - Your brain is the real business bottleneck (not your strategy)

You’ve got a solid offer. A clear plan. Maybe even a business coach. So why does it still feel like you’re spinning your wheels instead of getting results? The truth is: it’s not your strategy that’s the problem. It’s your mindset. In this episode of the Do the Dang Thing Podcast, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s really keeping you stuck—and spoiler alert: it’s that little voice in your head that whispers, “What if no one buys?” right before you hit post. We’ll dig into: * How your thoughts are secretly shaping your business results * The 3 most common mindset traps that keep high-achievers stuck * Simple reframes that help you stop second-guessing and start showing up * How to take action even when your confidence feels shaky If you’ve ever caught yourself saying, “I just need the right strategy,” this is your wake-up call. You probably already have it. Now let’s get your brain on board. ✨ Connect with Chrissi: Follow Chrissi on Instagram → @‌chrissisperduto [https://www.instagram.com/chrissisperduto/] Connect on Threads → threads.com/@chrissisperduto [https://www.threads.com/@chrissisperduto] Join the Monthly Free Coaching Call → chrissisperduto.com/freecoaching [https://www.chrissisperduto.com/freecoaching] Learn more about the DTDT Membership → chrissisperduto.com/dtdt [https://www.chrissisperduto.com/dtdt] Book a free 1:1 call → Book Here [https://tidycal.com/chrissisperduto/30-minute-meeting] Email: chrissi@chrissisperduto.com [chrissi@chrissisperduto.com] 🎶 Music by Joey Woods → @‌whoisjoeywoods [https://www.instagram.com/whoisjoeywoods/]
