    A word for Bullying Prevention Month

    October is Bullying Prevention Month, and I want to remind everyone of something we don’t talk about enough: Bullying doesn’t stop when we become adults. Children can experience bullying at school, but adults can experience it in the workplace, online, in relationships, within friendships, and even in their own communities. Being constantly criticized, humiliated, excluded, intimidated, mocked, or made to feel like you’re not good enough can affect a person’s confidence and sense of worth—regardless of their age. And sometimes, the person being bullied becomes very good at hiding the pain. So whether you’re 8, 18, 38, or 68, your feelings matter. Your voice matters. You deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. If you’re experiencing bullying, don’t suffer in silence. Talk to someone you trust. Document what’s happening when appropriate. Seek support. And remember that asking for help is not weakness. And if you see someone being targeted, don’t become a bystander when you can be an ally. A kind word can change someone’s day. Standing beside someone can remind them they’re not alone. This Bullying Prevention Month, let’s remember that prevention isn’t just about protecting children. It’s about creating a culture of respect for everyone—at every age. I’m Monetia Smothers, and through In the Limelight, I want to continue giving people a voice, sharing real stories, and reminding people that they are seen, they are heard, and they matter. Let’s be the reason someone feels seen instead of invisible. #BullyingPreventionMonth #StopBullying #AdultBullying #BeAnAlly #BeKind #InTheLimelight #YourStoryMatters Hey you want to send me a message or requests to be on the podcast?

    This kids book is now available on amazon and amazon kindle and soon on audiobooks worldwide to purchase on amazon. Welcome to "Not Invisible"! This is a special book made just for you, and it has two exciting parts. First, you’re going to read or hear a story about a girl named Maya. Maya is a student who sometimes feels completely invisible at school and quiet at home. In the story, you'll find out how she learns that words have a lot of powerboth online and in the school hallways. You'll follow her journey as she discovers how to break the cycle of hurtful words and choose kindness instead. The second part is your very own Student Workbook! As you read or listen through the different activities, we are going to stop and think together. You'll get to pause the audio to answer fun questions, think about your own big feelings, and practice cool ways to use your voice safely. You can write down your thoughts, draw your ideas on a piece of paper, or just chat about your answers with a parent, teacher, or counselor. Remember: You are seen. You are heard. And you are never invisible! Let's jump into chapter one! Hey you want to send me a message or requests to be on the podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode!

During our heartfelt conversation, she also opens up about her personal journey as a mother of a child with autism, bringing awareness to the importance of understanding, acceptance, encouragement, and support for families navigating autism. Dr. Kendra Nicole encourages anyone who has a child, relative, friend, or loved one affected by autism—or anyone seeking advice, encouragement, resources, or a better understanding of autism—to reach out to her.
