In this episode, we have 2 experts speaking on bullying from completely different perspectives. Dr Brooks Gibbs, award winning resilience educator, talks passionately about the importance of teaching children how to regulate emotions and solve social problems. His focus is on individual resilience vs. "targeting the aggressor". Our second speaker is Jessica Joelle Alexander, parenting expert and bestselling author, who will explore a Danish perspective to bullying. The Danish Way focuses on a community based approach to bullying where nurturing social connections, inclusive practices, and open communication is of vital importance. 

In the last 20 years Denmark has made drastic headway in reducing bullying both online and offline with an innovative approach. They have been so successful in fact, that Danish children are currently among the least bullied in all of Europe. Research clearly shows that bullying can have serious psychological and health consequences for children and adults, so tackling this issue is of the utmost importance. What’s the secret to their success?
