This podcast was hosted by Angela Watson and featured Dr. Marcie Beigel, an author and child behavioral specialist, who talks about how to prevent bullying in the classroom. According to Dr. Beigel, survivors must develop skills to move on from the experience and must learn how to say yes and no. In addition, knowing what one's strengths and weaknesses are is a good way to build self esteem. As Dr. Beigel put it, "When you have good self esteem, someone can’t bully you." This is an excellent podcast for young adults who need practical strategies and ideas on how to prevent themselves from being bullied and so much more.
