Bullying is a word that we've all seen or talked about in the last few years. A lot of light has been shined on this topic. In my first season of the show we had a program that featured a kid who had been bullied. He opened up about his struggles and the impact this had on his life. WATCH

This Monday we are discussing a new form that bullying is coming in, cyber. With everyone glued to their phones and social media, cyber bullying is on the rise. Here's the breakdown:

Topic: Cyber Bullying

Guests:

Sarah Spain- ESPN

Dr. Marc Atkins- Bullying Expert

Yana German- Online Bullying Victim

Stop THIS and Start THAT to Find Happy Love®

By: Bela Gandhi

I am often called a psychotic optimist – because I believe that love exists for every single person on this planet (that wants it, and is willing to work a little bit to find it).  I founded Smart Dating Academy eight years ago to teach singles everywhere, of all ages, HOW to identify the right partners, and how to date to find them (since we are rarely taught that at home). People often ask, “What’s the secret to finding happy love?” The common denominator of every client that found love was that they’d stopped their self-sabotaging behaviors and replaced those with successful strategies. The “stop” and “start” behaviors were different for every successful person, but here are some of the most common ones that you might identify with – and can put you on the superhighway to finding love this year: 

1. Stop believing in "types." When someone says “my type,” I hear “dating pattern.” If you have a type, you might just be doing the same wrong thing over and over again, with no success. Start casting your net wider, because your mate will come to you in an unexpected package — I promise.

2. Stop dating bad guys/gals, and Start dating high GHQ men (High in Good Husband Qualities)! High GHQ men are kind, reliable, consistent and ‘like you a little more’ than you like them. Bad boys are, well, bad. You can’t fix anyone except yourself. And if you’re looking for a wife, “High in Good Wife Qualities.”

3. Stop thinking online dating sites and apps are useless, and start getting back online the right way. You need great photos of you alone, headshots and body shots, and a positive, memorable profile. There are millions of Americans dating online at all times, and it’s estimated that one in three marriages start online.  

4. Stop ‘speed dating’, and getting rid of someone after date one just because there is no ‘chemistry’. Start giving love a chance to develop. Chemistry can grow – and sometimes the real first date is the second date! Unless you see any deal-breaker behaviors (angry, abusive, addictive, critical), give him/her up to five-six dates to let the love develop 

5. Stop having sex too early. Start practicing ‘sexclusivity’ - waiting until you are in an exclusive relationship to have sex. This continues to amaze me.  Successful women wonder why sleeping with a man on the third date is a bad idea. Why? It usually stunts the emotional growth of the relationship. He should love you before hopping in the sack. Old school? Maybe. Good advice? Definitely.

6. Stop thinking butterflies in your stomach are the sign you should be looking for!  Start knowing that butterflies are often a bad sign.  Butterflies are often fear and anxiety, and your body’s way of saying, “Danger up ahead!  Run!” I don’t know any women who married the guys that gave them butterflies.

If you’re not in a relationship and want to be, you can be.  If you’re in one that’s not healthy, you can find a better one.  Think hard about what you’re doing well and what’s not working—what to stop and what to start – and have someone give you a helping hand.  I promise you, love exists for everyone – especially you.

FALL PREMIER: Success With Confidence

Hey there TWRS friends and family! I extremely excited to bring you new amazing topics. As you know we are a show on a mission. Each week we highlight issues that must be heard. Anything from medical miracles, stories of overcoming, and more. We feature tough topics in hopes to create positive change.

We are kicking this season off with a show that will give you some pep in your step! We are talking CONFIDENCE! This is an issue that believe it or not I personally struggled with. Confidence is a word that means different things to different people. For me, I always knew I would be a talk show host and talking on TV always came naturally, but speaking to a group of people was difficult. I had to gain confidence in this area in order conquer my fear. I went the route of booking as many speaking events as possible until I was confident talking to any group. I think if we all look inward we will find there are areas, we can improve on when it comes to confidence.

On the show we have a guest that was at one of the lowest points of her life when she got help from an organization that changed her whole mindset. She went from struggling to finding success with confidence. Her story is a real life of example how a little help can go a long way. Here's an overview of what's coming up:

Topic:

Success With Confidence

Guests:

1. Wendy Wilkins and Robin Taylor- Dress For Success

2. Ethan Swanson- American Ninja Warrior Contestant

3. Lizzy Dances- Instagram Star

4. July Carbray- Confidence Expert

VV- Question:

What does confidence look like to you?

Remember you can always weigh in on the topic and if you do it early enough, you just might be seen on TV. Make sure to tweet your video to @whitneyreynolds or #TWRSconfidence. We this show helps you grow when it comes to confidence. We wish you continued success! See you next Monday!
