Quinton Aaron (Star of The Blind Side) and Eric Martinez are dedicated to advocating for the fight against bullying. Their mission is to provide hope, encouragement, confidence and resources to children on the brink of suicide or battling the damaging effects on self-esteem and confidence caused by the actions or words of others.
Together they created the “I got your back” campaign which is dedicated to eradicating bullying…..or at least bringing it to the attention of kids, parents, and schools across America. I got your back is about empowering kids and parents to be brave enough to acknowledge that their child is being bullied and help them find the courage to change their future.
Join our lively conversation where Quinton and Eric talk about their own childhood experiences with being bullied and how their willingness to share those experiences with other kids gives these children the confidence to speak up.

How is your January going so far? How is the check list coming along? Just a reminder that it is totally cool and quite required (by me) to take full advantage of all holidays, Hallmark or Federal…..People are conditioned by the big box stores to expect a special sale and are just sitting there waiting for your email to show up and make them an offer they can't refuse. Really!!!
