How Do You Heal from Childhood Bullying?

Black Women & Toxic Jobs Weekly Newsletter

Bullying is more than just a schoolyard issue; it’s a serious experience that leaves an impact long after childhood ends.

Research shows that Black youth are at higher risk of being targeted by, witnessing, or even participating in bullying due to factors like social and economic inequality, racial discrimination, and feelings of exclusion. These experiences often build layers of hurt that stay with us well into adulthood, affecting both mental and academic well-being and, yes, even how we navigate toxic workplaces.

In this week’s discussion, my special guest, Evette Bean , Licensed Professional Counselor and Author, and I are exploring how those early wounds might show up later in life and, importantly, how to begin the healing process. Here’s what we covered:

• The Lasting Impact of Bullying: The mental, emotional, and academic challenges that can persist well into adulthood, affecting self-worth and resilience.
• Understanding Resilience and Recovery: How healing isn’t about “getting over it” but building tools to navigate life’s challenges with self-compassion.
• Steps to Begin Healing: Practical ways to start addressing childhood wounds and reclaim your strength in both personal and professional spaces.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of these experiences or want to learn more about the power of healing, this talk is for you. Click below to watch, and remember: taking control of your healing is the first step toward reclaiming your strength. ??
