“Are you a bully, a bystander, or a target?
We’re all of those things on different days and different times in our lives.”
In this episode of Bounce Back Stronger, Donna Ferris sits down with Peggy Moss—Vice Chair of the Canadian Women’s Foundation, former Maine Assistant Attorney General, Associate Director of the Center for the Prevention of Hate Violence, and award-winning children’s book author of Say Something, Our Friendship Rules, and One of Us.
We discuss a wide array of topics, including:
Why saying something matters in the face of bullying
Rethinking the myth that “girls are mean”
How mindfulness and impermanence help with anxiety
What she learned from moving her family to Sri Lanka during a civil war
How improv helped her find balance and courage after leaving the workforce
Peggy’s wisdom will inspire you to speak up, rethink your story, and remember—it’s never too late to begin again.
