2. " I listened to kids tell me their stories about what it was like being bullied and how painful it was at times. Using their stories, as well as my experience, I worked to create lots of tools kids can use when it comes to dealing with bullying, some of which I will share with you today."

4. "Showing any weakness, crying or actually asking for help, can sometimes make you feel, 'Oh, I'm a baby or I can't handle it, so I'm not going to ask for help. So they internalize and that's where the problems start because they can't process their feelings. That's why it's so critical to know that it's OK and normal to be angry, frustrated and sad sometimes."

5. "I share with everyone I mentor these four sayings which have buoyed me during times in my career when I have struggled. Failure is not permanent. Nothing can grow in your comfort zone. Little by little, a little becomes a lot. And, don't let someone dim you light simply because it is shining in their eyes. I did not originate these sayings but find them as great foundations to build upon."

6. "It's incredible on how a story can transport you to any place your imagination will allow."

10. "Saying mean stuff and doing things like leaving people out, purposefully ignoring them and gossip can often hurt more than kicks and punches. Instead help someone else when they are feeling left out."

11. "Communication often disconnects us when we assume that we are certain we know something about a child instead of inquiring about the child's truth."

12. "The only person that is stopping you is yourself because as long as you put yourself out there someone is going to need your services."

13. "I found that I can talk to kids in their own language because I am a 14 year old trapped in an older dude's body."

14. The biggest problem is that we immediately tell somebody, "It's going to be okay." That doesn't help the kid feel better. That makes you feel better because you dealt with it. What we need to do is...be an ear for their  fears and feelings."

15. "I think most of the time adults tell kids what we think we they need to hear instead of listening to what they are asking for."
