Growing a better me...

Healing the hurt that causes bullying and being bullied

Follow a simple and effective process that will help you:

  • Understand that change is possible when you accept that you are valuable and worthy, no matter what.

  • Learn how to change the way you feel and behave by changing the way you think.

  • Apply the tools and exercises to feel better now.


The hopeful emphasis in this book/workbook is on empowering young people, as they look at themselves and their life experiences, to recapture a loving core, rather than to continue in self-defeating relationships. It is an emphasis that is lacking in other material. I would highly recommend it.

In the fall of 2013, our entire World Studies course team used Ms. Hawkins book and curriculum in the beginning of the school year with 9th graders at Benito Juarez Community Academy to introduce our overarching course question: “Why do people do what they do?” It was a great way to introduce human motivation, but also a great way to get to know our kids and introduce the social emotional learning standards. The book and curriculum especially emphasize the importance of self-awareness, self-management, and interpersonal skills. It was very helpful to use this unit throughout the year any time we wanted to talk about motivation for action or social emotional skills. We have used it two years and will continue to use it in the future. After winter break we officially touched base with the kids to see if they were still using the strategies from the unit. We got an overwhelmingly positive response, and the student feedback was really encouraging!
