After we finished recording EPISODE 14 with Superhero of Love Natalie Hampton who rose from the ashes of enduring two years of being bullied at her prestigious private school, it was clear we needed to hear how her parents navigated these stormy heart waters as well. No parent wants to see their child suffer. No parent thinks they can support their child in just the right way when their emotional and physical health are at stake. Listen to Scott and Carolyn share how they got through this and helped Natalie stand strong on her own two feet, while doing their best to support her through these treacherous times. They also ended up deepening their family bonds as a result.
Natalie Hampton also pops in for a brief story in this episode as well, giving even more reason to love and respect her.
Please pass on this episode to any parent you might know as there may be something they will be able to use one day when they end up trying to help their child through rough emotional times.

Natalie Hampton was bullied for two years at a prestigious private school. She and her parents tried everything to have her remain in the school and stay safe, but the road was difficult, and Natalie has the scars to prove it. Yet, she rose up from years of abuse to take a stand for the kids who can't fight back, and to provide a real life solution with her Sit With Us App, which gives others like her a chance to stand up against bullies and reach out to those who are being bullied.
At 17, Natalie has already received a plethora of award. You will find her gracing the same page as Jane Goodall when she was acknowledged by People magazine in the issue celebrating "25 Women Changing the World." and was 2017 Radio Disney Heroes for Change honoree.
If you have been bullied, or know someone who has, you will want to listen in to her heart of gold wisdom.

Kathy Eldon lost her son, Reuters photojournalist, Dan Eldon, when he was stoned to death in Somalia at just 22 years old. She and her daughter, Amy Eldon, began an extraordinary journey after that heartbreaking event. They created a documentary entitled Dying to Tell the Story which premiered at the United Nations, and which asked journalists and journalists why they regularly risk their lives to tell the stories of tragedy. This started them on a journey of telling Dan's and other stories through books, documentaries and feature films.
Kathy's memoir In the Heart of Life chronicles how she has lived around the globe yet always nestled in her heart center. She is the embodiment of open-hearted, but her greatest gift is being a spark for other's hearts to come alive in most powerful and creative ways. She will likely spark yours.

Reverend Ed Bacon was rector of the largest Episcopal Church in the Western United States for over 20 years. He continued the church's long tradition of working for LGBTQ rights, furthering their interfaith and peace objectives and since retiring continues to make a difference in the world each and every day.
A favorite guest on Oprah Winfrey's Super Soul Sunday series, Ed's book 8 Habits of Love: Open Your Heart, Open Your Mind reminds us why. The book is full of the wisdom we all love: simple, elegant and easily accessible for all faiths and all levels of personal transformation. He and his book are heart-opening and love-inspired.
In this interview Ed shares his thoughts on how we can take care of our hearts in this world that can feel more full of fear than love. He talks about how we can heal our individual and collective pains around the topics of Anthony Bourdain's recent suicide, school shootings, and more. He gives many helpful tips for heart healing and heart care: developing a stillness practice, cultivating a gentle and sweet heart, sharing love, raising children as divine beings, and connecting through love and God... and more!
About midway through the interview, Bacon mentions this bit of inspiration from Aminatta Forna, which is definitely worth a listen: PBS News Hour with Aminatta Forna
