Day 29: The Lasting Impact of Bullying – 30 days, 30 episodes

Bullying can leave lasting scars, and in today’s episode, I reflect on my own experiences with it throughout my childhood and adolescence. I share personal anecdotes, from being pushed into the mud by a bully in third grade to facing threats from a baseball team in high school. These moments shaped my reactions to conflict and how I navigated friendships, often leading me to prioritize others' approval over my own feelings. Takeaways: Bullying can leave lasting emotional scars that affect us throughout our lives. The impact of childhood bullying can shape how we interact with others later on. It’s important to recognize that bullies often have their own issues they are dealing with.
