Join the Rejection Challenge from 7/1 to 7/31.

join The rejection challenge

Stop saying no to your dreams without even making the ask.

The goal of Rejection Challenge is to ask for 20 things you want between 7/1-7/31. Pitch yourself to be on a podcast, ask for a promotion, implement a ‘fend for yourself’ Friday in your home – whatever you want. We’re making 20 audacious asks, collecting ‘No’s unashamedly, and taking the action we’ve been sitting on for months. ‘Sign up, get uncomfortable and watch what happens when you move with ruthless optimism.

There are people out there, RIGHT THIS SECOND, asking for ridiculous things of this universe, and the universe is serving it up hot. This can be you too, but you have to make the ask. Inside of this challenge, we’re going after our biggest, boldest, baddest dreams. In return, the universe will say YES to you too. It’s time to get uncomfortable, friend. You can do this.

Investment: $97

Why ‘Rejection Challenge’ Works

1
You’re paying to play

Let’s call out the fact that you could easily shoot your shot on your own. But, you don’t. A challenge motivates you to follow through. Plus there’s an end date. Get uncomfortable from 7/1-7/31.

2
The point is REJECTION

Being rejected, told no, GHOSTED – all of it sucks. But in this challenge, the goal is to collect NO’s. There’s no literal way to fail if you make the ask.

3
Gentle, yet firm, accountability

We’re all a little anxious. But, we’re giving our brains permission to stop spinning & take quick action. We’ll hold each other accountable and cheer each other on.

JOIN THE CHALLENGE
‘wHEN I GET MY SH** TOGETHER, IT’S OVER FOR YOU BI***ES’ IS PROCRASTINATION

This challenge was designed for one thing – action. You’re leaving this challenge with ‘No’s. But also, lots of ‘YES’!

Last summer, I embarked on a ‘Make 10k in 20 days’ challenge – and I failed

But, something unexpected happened. I brought in 5k in just 10 days! 3k of that came from an old colleague. She’d offered to donate to Money for Mujeres in the past, but …. I hadn’t followed up in YEARS. 1 email = 3k.

The 10k in 20 days challenge taught me that the scariest part isn’t receiving a YES or NO. The scariest part is making the ask. No matter how much you feel the answer will be no, truth is, you don’t know the future.

This challenge will change you

You’re a force to be reckoned with, and you know it. But your mind keeps throwing you, ‘I don’t think they’ll say yes”, or ‘technically, I don’t have to do it’, or the worst one, ‘I’ll do it later’. Disrespectfully, it’s time to saddle up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Inside of this challenge, you will list out 20 asks you’d like to make from July 1-31. You can change the asks as you go, but we’re setting a baseline. The goal is to make the ask, face the rejection, keep moving, and celebrate the YESes you’ll get along the way. In short, stop procrastinating and get your wins. And amiga, I want you to THINK BIG.

1. A virtual ‘Welcome party’ is happening on Thursday, July 2nd at 7pm central. If you cannot attend live a recording will be sent out.

2. There will be a total of 8 office hours after that, 2 per week starting the week of July 6th. 1 of the office hours will take place during working hours (e.g. 2pm central), the other outside of working hours (e.g. 7pm central). I will poll for participant availability and finalize the schedule by Thursday, July 2nd.

3.Each participant will receive 2 1:1s and will be scheduled based on participant availability.

I can’t drive to your house and force you to do anything (I would if I could). However, this isn’t a ‘get it done’ or else challenge. This is a space where we get to face our fear of rejection together and, we get to THINK BIG. We have office hours built in so that we can sit together to feel that nervousness and make those asks. If all you do is show up to the office hours and your 1:1s, that’s a win. I’ll help you execute.

Office hour replays will NOT be sent out. However, they are not mandatory. You are able to take action on your own. The 1:1s are built into the challenge to account for this. During the 1:1s, we’ll come up with your game plan as well as how you’d like me to hold you accountable and cheer you on! I can also just sit there in silence the entire time. Sometimes, we just need a body double.

At the welcome party, we will take some time to write down the 20 asks we plan to make. THINK BIG, en serio. You will share a google doc with me. Throughout office hours and 1:1s, we’ll be sharing progress and checking off the asks we’ve made. e.g. I’ve made 7/20 asks! OR I have 5 Nos so far but 3 YES! Remember, you’re paying to play, that in itself will hold you accountable too. Show up to the calls, and you will win. I will help you.

You absolutely can! But, will you? Inside of rejection challenge, we’re showing up anxious, with time scarcity, and with procrastination, but we’re taking the action anyway. We get to witness the dreams and action of our colleagues, we get to cheer them on and use that momentum to make moves of our own. Community = currency. Inside of rejection challenge, we’re collecting NO’s loud, proud, and getting closer to our YES.

NGL – a $97 offer has me reading the sales page over and over. I totally get it. Upon request, I can offer a 2 installation payment plan or, if it’s aligned, we can barter services. One time, someone transcribed some things for me in exchange. Remember, ASKING about options can be part of your rejection challenge. Send an email to mariel@moneyformujeres.com and we’ll take it from there.

The $1,000 follow up

I’m a full time public school teacher. In 2025 my district decided to give everyone a raise based on ‘years of service’. At first glance, it looked like I’d served 2 years. But, shoot your shot Mariel knew, that technically, if you looked at it this way and that, I had served 3.

I e-mailed. No dice. I drove to the office. Nice try. And then I asked, ‘would you be willing to ask your supervisor to look at the math one last time?’ The response? ‘They approved it.’

2 years of service would’ve bumped my annual base pay by $500. 3 years though? Your girl got a $1,500 annual increase. It wasn’t a one time payment. It’s a lifetime bump in base salary. Ask the question – relentlessly.
