Episode 46: Standing Up to Bullying with Bullseye The Clown
"We aren't meant to blend in. We are meant to stand out." - Bullseye
Bullseye The Clown may seem like an unlikely bullying expert, but with over 25 years experience navigating around and developing innovative tactics to dealing with bullies, he is a one of a kind force to be reckoned with.
Bullseye The Clown received his Bachelor of Arts in Comprehensive Theater and Communications from Ashland University. Throughout his career as an actor and stand-up comedian, he employed psychodrama techniques and the secrets of body language to not only read what the bully is truly thinking but to also create "characters" to get himself out of some very compelling situations.
Bullseye is so passionate about helping those who feel unloved, under-appreciated and disregarded by society that he is revealing a number of survival tips and suggestions in his book, Bullseye On Bullying: Your Blueprint To Beating The Bullies, as well as tackling topics like these weekly on his Youtube show, Bullseye On Bullying.
In this episode, we discuss how he handled his own childhood bullies as well as ways that teachers can support their students to feel appreciated, confident, and safe. Bullseye also shares lively stories about his time traveling Russia with Patch Adams, who used clowning as an entry to healing and used laughter as a language of its own.
As Bullseye implores, be the teacher that is known to have your students' back and will stand up for the students.
