The bully I stood up too—with the permission of my dad—ended up in prison for murder. I think he died in prison from the hand of another. I was lucky we were only 13

What a great dad! I truly think that being believed and supported ameliorates the trauma we must deal with as adults.

I liked this, it surely seems we are growing bullies and narcissistic personalities in our current culture. Witnessed it publicly (good day for this podcast) and privately in my personal life. I still cannot sort out how these types gather so many supporters and defenders. Watched that unfold in my marriage, so many supported my ex who was divorcing me during covid and during very vulnerable times. I don't quite get how this can happen! The Bully can dance away without repercussions? Thanks, Jonathan.
