I have a very special guest with me here today and that is Sam Dean. 

So just to give you a little heads up before we introduce, Sam, you're here listening to the resilient podcast with me, Ashley Costello, psychotherapist of over 20 years as you all know if you listen well, less than hard, and today's episode is around bullying, and for Rosie it's real. 

Well it's really prevalent at the moment, in society because we don't just see it in schools like we've always seen it but we're actually seeing it in the workplace. We're seeing it online, we're seeing it on social media and our children often can't get away from it, and so I came across this book, by some, and it was just a breath of fresh air because it really is a children's book, but it, it really addresses issues, but with such a funny and naughty feel to it, that you can't help but laugh, and it really gives us a sense of hope. 

I think that's, you know, more than anything.

What a fabulous podcast with Author Sam Dean who tackles the very serious issue of bullying in his book Timothy & The Triplets Three. Sam talks about his own personal experience, as well as working with troubled children in South Africa and extensive years as a Samaritan. Along with Ashley, they give tips and hope to everyone who this issue effects.

Catherine Samarinda is absolutely amazing as insure me Lily, green coaches were all on our actual speech. But I'm just part of that speak panel. And I remember the first time I saw Emi's audition video, it was just blooming away from the actual sentiment, the story behind it was amazing.
