Words Matter For Coach Who Was Bullied

2 Lives - Stories Of Transformation

I'd like to think every month is 'Don't Be a Bully Month,' but the social media gods claimed August. Regardless it's a good reminder to listen to one of my favorite 2 Lives episodes featuring Coach Marty who has made it his life's mission to put a stop to bullying.

Coach Marty Heilman has made an impact on thousands of kids. He knows all too well what lasting impacts teasing can have so he strives to put a stop to bullying.

Content Warning: There is some talk of self harm in this episode.
