What if the rejection you’re fighting isn’t the end of the story—but God’s way of redirecting you toward something better?

At 18, Rikki Lee stood crying in the parking lot of a used car dealership after being told the $5,000 she had worked and saved wasn’t enough to get what she was looking for. Hours later, after deciding to simply “go across the street,” she drove away in a brand-new car.

Six years later, at 24, she finds herself learning the same lesson again.

In this deeply personal episode of That Girl Radio, Rikki shares what two very different seasons of rejection have taught her about knowing when to stop proving your worth, release what’s familiar, and trust God enough to explore what He may have waiting for you somewhere else.

Because sometimes you aren’t being told you’re not worthy. Your portion simply isn’t there.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why rejection can be an invitation to reconsider where you’re trying to receive your portion
• How familiarity can keep you fighting for something you wouldn’t choose with fresh eyes
• Why constantly proving your worth may be a sign that it’s time to redirect your energy
• How to distinguish holding on from faithfully letting go
• Why God isn’t limited by the qualifications, protocols, or hierarchy you’ve created in your mind
• How to trust God when you know what you’re leaving but don’t yet know what you’re walking into
• Why making room for what’s next sometimes requires releasing what no longer has room for you

Your That Girl Assignment: Ask yourself: What am I fighting so hard to keep that I honestly need to release? Then identify one thing you’re willing to loosen your grip on this week so you can step forward with God in faith.

Sometimes rejection isn’t an absolute no. Sometimes it’s simply redirection to exactly what He has for you—and what’s next may be better than you ever imagined.

What do you do when the excitement runs out, and the calling is still calling?

Nobody warns you about the middle. The beginning is easy. Everyone's cheering, the idea feels shiny, motivation shows up on time. But somewhere between starting and finishing, the applause stops, the obstacles pile up, and you're left asking if any of it was ever really going to work. This week, Rikki's living that exact question in real time — mid-move, mid-lease drama, mid-recording-the-episode-twice-because-she-forgot-to-hit-record — and she's not skipping past it for the sake of a tidy episode.

In this episode of That Girl Radio, Rikki Lee gets honest about the week that almost broke her focus, and shows you how to get over what she calls "the hurdle of how" — the gap between what God's called you to and the story you've built about how hard it has to be — so you can keep walking through the desert every dreamer has to cross, alone, without losing your nerve.

This episode covers motivation versus commitment, faith in the middle of the mess, navigating a calling nobody around you understands, and why the assignment was never as complicated as you made it.

In this episode, Rikki talks about:

• Why motivation is fleeting — and what to trade it for when it runs out
• The real reason you keep quitting things before you finish them ("the hurdle of how")
• How to flip an obstacle into a stepping stone instead of a stop sign
• What it actually means to navigate your calling alone without feeling alone
• Who to keep close when the season goes quiet and the "beeps" stop coming
• Why the middle of your dream — not the finish line — is where the real testimony gets written

Your That Girl Assignment: Ask yourself what you've given up on — and be honest about why you actually started it in the first place, not why you think you should have. Name the roadblocks standing in the way, then write down one thing you can do this week to restart it.

Listen Next: If this one stirred something up, go back to "You're Not Behind"— same thread, different angle: you're not behind, you're just in the part of the story nobody posts about.
