ATTENTION PARENTS:

Get The Groundbreaking Strategies That Will Have Your Child Beat Bullying And Friendship Conflicts FOR GOOD!

An Integrated Program That Builds the Life Skills They Need to Handle Conflict now and into adulthood through actionable strategies.

Bullying IS NOT GOING AWAY and the impact of it is staying with our kids into adulthood:

Research is revealing that children who are bullied are at risk of experiencing poor social, health, and economic outcomes for up to nearly four decades after exposure.
Young people who suffer prolonged, repetitive bullying report worse mental health outcomes compared to those with less exposure.
Bullying has also been linked to long-term issues like forming adult relationships, mental health disorders and unemployment.
60% of adolescents who have been admitted to hospital for suicidal behaviour reported a history of bullying.
And studies looking at associations between bullying behaviours and suicide among school age young people found that youth involved in bullying in any capacity – both as bullies and victims of bullying – were more likely to think about, and attempt suicide, than those not involved in bullying.

Kimberly Conicella (M.Ed), the founder of The Courage Edition invites you into a new approach for kids that are dealing with bullying and nasty friends.

These Strategies can be used by your child NOW, plus can be taken into the workplace as an adult. So parents, this program is as much for you as it is for your child!

Who wouldn’t want to be able to handle conflict with confidence and inner strength?

Bullying has become a pandemic, and the resources available to support our kids through this are very limited.

And social media and gaming platforms are creating even more destruction where our kids are exposed to bullying online that they simply can’t escape from. While offline bullying finishes when the event is over, online bullying can reach a much wider range of people and can also last longer. The results can lead to serious psycho-social and life problems.

So how do you go about protecting your child and supporting them to be able to handle conflict in such a difficult and challenging environment?

If you’re feeling:

FREAKED OUT and stressed about protecting your child,
SCARED that your child might be already impacted by bullying and nasty friends
And UNSURE of how to help your child handle these pressures

Then Bully Proof Academy is for YOU!

*** GET ACCESS! ***

Trust me, I can relate to all three of these things.

I was the sensitive kid who had no self worth, and I am that parent that is working hard to make sure that my child never goes through the bullying that I went through! And this is why I KNOW that Bully Proof Academy is for you! Because the actionable strategies and steps inside mean that your child can learn to be the strongest version of themselves and take these skills into their adult life!

After being bullied in primary school by 5 of my best friends, by the time I reached high school, I was a mess. I didn’t trust anyone and the moment there was conflict with someone I would distance myself. And that meant that I didn’t stay in a group for very long. I would bounce from group to group, making friends and then moving on very quickly. By the time I left high school, I had no close friends, just acquaintances. And I did the same during my time in university.

It wasn’t until I got the support I needed though psychology and counselling that I became self aware and realised the pattern in my friendships. I was going through life without building deep connections with people and it was making me feel worthless and alone.

Being bullied had traumatised me and the impact of this meant that I struggled to build friendships and trust people.

Now as an adult, a teacher and a parent, I knew I had to change and so I had to learn how to make friends and how to build quality connections with people, which is something I should’ve learned before becoming an adult.

So I began to research how to handle conflict and bullying.

I spent thousands and thousands of dollars on personal and spiritual development, learning about the brain and cognitive therapy, amongst a broad range of other things, to assist in healing and learning strategies to protect myself.

And even though I have a Degree in Communications and a Masters in Education, the most valuable lessons that made a significant transformation in the quality of my life and relationships had actually come from the investments I made myself in courses and programs, and gaining an understanding of the psychology of the brain.

So while the first step for me was to begin to rebuild my inner strength (which is inside my 2 wk signature course, Bully Proof Your Kid), the next step was to develop the life skills that I was missing and put them into practice using actionable strategies that really helped in the moment of conflict. (So, think building boundaries, conflict resolution and problem solving strategies.)

I thought - ‘If I turned the strategies that I’ve learnt as an adult into a step by step instruction manual for kids and tweens, they would have the tools and strategies to overcome bullying and handle conflict that took me nearly 30 years to learn.

And so I began to write these down and create mini videos on how to use certain strategies in the moment of bullying and conflict (BPA’s Strategy Vault) and created longer videos and activities and role plays that developed self awareness, built boundaries and helped to transform kid’s mindsets positively.

And, as I implemented this method and started using it with kids during my teaching years, and with 1:1 clients, I realised that this was not only creating dramatic results, but it was far bigger than just me. I realised all kids needed access to this, not just those that are being bullied. And all parents can use this in their parenting (and even implement the strategies in their own lives).

So I created my online program BULLY PROOF ACADEMY using this method, which is now known as The Courage Method, and over the last few years have supported many parents to have similar transformations with their kids.

BULLY PROOF ACADEMY (BPA) focuses on the 3 areas within The Courage Method that are crucial in overcoming bullying and conflict:

INNER STRENGTH

STRATEGIES

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT

Inside BPA there are 12 core modules, with video lessons and resources to assist you and your child in this transformational process. Plus, ‘vaults’ that focus on the strategies (The Strategy Vault) and the emotional support (The Parent Vault) required to overcome bullying and set your child up with the confidence and resilience to keep building on these life skills!

The kid’s lesson looks at different examples of why kids bully and opens discussion on why they might be targeted by others.

This module looks at building self awareness in your child and why having self awareness is crucial in overcoming bullying.

The parent lesson looks at why you are the most important person in your child’s life and how you can impact their self awareness.

The kid’s lesson gets them to look inside for answers to deeper questions they may not have asked themselves before.

LIKING YOURSELF

EMPATHY

In this module empathy is discussed as being the key ingredient to positive friendships and relationships.

The parent lesson deep dives into general strategies parents can use to teach empathy to their kids.

The kid’s lesson helps kids learn how to be more empathetic to friends so that you can be a more quality friend to others. Being more empathetic helps kids have compassion for those that really need it, such as someone bullying.

In this module we look at the difference between quality friendships and toxic ones.

The parent lesson dives into how kids learn from YOU! And, the type of relationships and friendships you are modelling. This lesson also breaks down the 4 types of toxic friendships we need to be aware of.

The kids lesson breaks down tricky friendships and helps kids take a look at their own friendships and be able to recognise what ones are good for them and what ones aren’t.

TOXIC FRIENDSHIPS

ASSUMPTIONS

In this module we look at how assuming something can often have us believing something that may not be true. learned behaviours and patterns that have been created from our culture, our families and our environment as kids.

The parent lesson covers how we can help our kids question our assumptions on things and how assuming impacts their friendships.

The kid’s lesson we look at what the bully may be assuming about your child, plus what your child is assuming about the bully and why both of these assumption may be incorrect.

In this module we look at how having a growth mindset can be a gamechanger for someone being bullied.

The parent lesson looks at how you can support your child as they begin to change their work on their mindset.

The kid’s lesson looks at HOW to change your mindset to be more of a growth mindset.

GROWTH MINDSET

YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS

In this module we go a bit deeper than last week to look at how our brain ‘thinks’, and the link between bullying/conflict and our reactions.

The parent lesson covers how to help our kids with their thoughts and the link between thoughts, feelings and actions.

The kid’s lesson is HOW to train yourself to stop the negative reaction and create new pathways in your brain to react in a way that empowers you, and disempowers the bully.

In this module we cover the link between peer pressure and bullying.

The parent lesson looks at what peer pressure is and things you can implement to help your child be less likely to fall into the trap of peer pressure.

The kid’s lesson looks at ways to help your child get out of a peer pressure situation without being picked on or without having to do something they don’t want to do.

PEER PRESSURE

BOUNDARIES

This module looks at why boundaries are important in friendships and how they can help kids stay true to themselves and set boundaries against toxic friends and people who attempt to bully them.

The parent lesson helps you implement boundaries in your own life and model this for your child. It also gives you tips on how to help them build their boundaries.

The kid’s lesson steps out how to build boundaries against friends that often expect too much from them or are nasty to them.

In this module we look at the importance of being an upstander against bullying and how your child can do this without becoming a victim of bullying themselves.

It also looks at forgiveness and how forgiving someone for being nasty to you doesn’t mean that you ‘forget’ what they do but rather it helps you to move forward.

The parent lesson helps you understand why upstanding and forgiveness is important and provides ways that these topics can be discussed with your child.

The kid’s lesson shows them HOW to be an upstander without becoming a victim of bullying and gets them to think about how forgiving someone for being nasty will help them move forward.

UPSTANDING AND FORGIVENESS

STRATEGY VAULT

There are so many strategies available inside The Strategy Vault that assists kids with bullying and conflict as it’s happening.

With each bullying situation being different for each kid, these strategies are designed for kids to listen to and choose which ones they think will work for them. Each strategy has role play cards attached to practise with before putting the strategy into action. And the Strategy Vault is continuously being updated with more strategies.

The Parent Vault has resources available that will support parents as they support their kids through bullying and conflict.

For example, an action plan and evidence tracker, which are a great tool to use in meetings with the school as you communicate with them on the bullying situation for your child. This vault is continuously updated also.

Building The Life Skills To Handle Bullying And Conflict Is An Ongoing Journey!

Which is why I keep adding resources to this program! As you work through the modules regularly, you’ll notice the positive transformations in your child within as little as 3 weeks. You can stay for as little or as long as you like inside BPA, and reap the benefits of having like minded parents and support at your fingertips.

You will feel empowered being able to parent through these social challenges with open communication and a strengthened relationship with your child and support them as they courageously attempt strategies and expand their inner strength to be able to deal with conflict as it occurs.

You may have already tried a heap of other things to solve bullying for your child….

Maybe you’ve tried self defence classes, but have noticed that this doesn’t help with verbal bullying or toxic friendships.
Or maybe you’ve tried therapy to build their confidence or meetings with the school to try to stop the conflict before it occurs.

If you think you’ve done everything you can, or you’re secretly hoping your child will just grow up and learn how to sort these conflicts out on their own…

I am here to tell you, it doesn’t work that way.

Bully Proof Academy is what you’ve been searching for…

*** GIVE ME ACCESS! ***

Now, you maybe thinking:

I don’t have time to commit to the program

Well, if you don’t make the time now, it will be made for you on the backend from the problems that will inevitably arise, if they haven’t already. The resources and actionable strategies in this program will save you more time, money & energy than you can imagine.

Is it worth $29/month?

Let me ask you, what’s the price of inaction? Of staying where you are now? Of watching your child continue to suffer? This program will pay for itself. The Strategy Vault alone is worth it.

Who are you to give me bullying advice?

I’m actually not that special. I’m just like you. A parent who wants their kids to go through life with strong inner strength and boundaries so that they aren't bullied, they don’t ‘people please’, or give into peer pressure, and they are happy. But if we are talking qualifications, here they are: I was bullied as a kid, and have observed many bullying situations as a teacher. I spent over 5 years in therapy learning about cognitive therapy and working my way back from having no inner strength to thriving. I have a Bachelor Degree in Communications and a Masters in Education and I am here to help serve and protect kids and tweens from becoming a victim like I was.

Is this program really for me?

Well Ill tell you who this program is NOT for.

It’s not for those:

Who are hoping that the education system and my program will take care of your kids.
Who are looking to let go of the responsibility of helping your child build the appropriate skills to resolve the issues and conflicts they are faced with.
Who think that it is solely the responsibility of the school system and the community to fix this issue, not theirs.
Who thinks money will solve this for them.
Who are not willing to work on themselves throughout the program, while their child works on themselves.

Is it for parents or kids?

This program is different from anything else because it is an integrated approach, which means the program is for kids, tweens, and their parents. In each module there are kids lessons and an accompanying parent lesson to match.

What age is this suitable for?

The great thing about this program is its versatility. It is suitable for kids from the age of 7 to 11. All kids going through the program requires a parent or caring adult to work through the program with.

Is it for kids who are bullied or kids that bully?

This is the great thing about this program. It is primarily designed for kids who are being bullied, but the messages and lessons will definitely be beneficial for kids who have bullying behaviours as the program is designed to build empathy and self awareness also.

I'm overwhelmed. How hard is this program?

The program itself isn’t hard. There is a parent and kids lesson each week with an accompanying workbook. The workbook does not need to be filled in if you prefer to hold conversations with your child instead. The workbooks are designed to encourage and open communication between you and your child.

Where the program might feel more challenging is the inner work that parents may find themselves going through alongside their child within the modules. When the questions encourage self awareness and reflection, it is common for parents in this program to gain some insight into their behaviours and patterns.

Will there be a lot of homework?

The homework is more of an inner journey and self reflection. The workbooks are designed to get you asking yourself questions and so the work done is more on the inside than physically sitting down and answering a heap of questions. In saying that, there are role playing cards that are worth printing and cutting out and using with your child on a regular basis to help them build their inner strength.

Can the family go through this together?

Yes, absolutely! Having the family go through this together is ideal as it will build connection and open communication within the family where everyone is feeling supported.

Hey, I'm Kim

I'm a Qld Sunny Coaster, author, anti-bullying advocate, educator, speaker, and book-lover that has BIG DREAMS to make big changes in the anti-bullying space around Australia and the world!

I've always been called to help those that couldn't stand up for themselves.

But it wasn't until I had my first child, Avery, that I was triggered to do something that could help with bullying and friendship conflicts, especially after being bullied myself during my school years and having the trauma of it follow me into adulthood.

I'd gone into teaching to help kids who were struggling with friendship dynamics and bullying. I know I'm supposed to say I went into teaching to well... teach, but truthfully teaching math and literacy was only a small part of my main purpose for being a teacher. I wanted to HELP kids socially. I wanted to get to the nitty gritty of the situation and find ways to resolve it. I wanted to help kids the way I WASN'T helped when I was in school.

And that’s why I started The Courage Edition - To help as many kids and tweens as possible build the inner strength to overcome bullying and handle conflict. And that’s what I strive for everyday!
