From Divorce & Company Collapse to $60M Raised — Ted Brown’s Rejection-Fueled Comeback | Rejection Rehab Ep. 6

What would you do if you hit rock bottom—personally and professionally—and you still had to keep a company alive?

In this episode of Rejection Rehab, EMMY winning producer Dr. Tom Flaherty sits down with fintech entrepreneur Ted Brown, co-founder and CEO of Digital Onboarding, the company he revived from near bankruptcy—amid a painful divorce—to ultimately raise nearly $60 million and rebuild his life and love.

Ted reveals how true confidence comes from competence—and why before you’re competent in something, it’s not a weakness to admit, “I’m not good at it…yet.”

In this episode, you’ll hear about:


    • The mindset shift from survival to thriving—personally and professionally
    • How getting rejected over and over again (by VCs) made him rejection proof
    • The painful pivot from a doomed startup idea to building a fintech platform used by 140+ financial institutions
    • How divorce became a catalyst, not a catastrophe
    • The gritty reality of scraping by—like Uber-driving to pay your own bills
    • Raising $58 million in growth capital while keeping employees, payroll, and momentum alive

  • Whether you're overcoming heartbreak, financial crisis, or self-doubt, Ted’s journey shows how rejection can be your greatest fuel.
