Episode Nobody Tells You This About Being Bullied as a Child - It Can Make or Break You as an Adult
Nobody tells you that being bullied as a child doesn’t just hurt in the moment - it can quietly shape who you become as an adult.
In this episode, Jess Levy shares her raw and deeply honest experience of growing up with bullying, and how the emotional impact followed her long after school ended - affecting her confidence, relationships, self-belief and sense of belonging well into adulthood.
She opens up about how unresolved trauma can either hold you back or become the catalyst for profound personal growth, and why confronting her past was a turning point in finally reclaiming her power.
Now an entrepreneur of nine years, founder of a global wellness business, and creator of the Level Up Ladies community, Jess reflects on how those early experiences shaped her drive, her boundaries, and her determination to build spaces where women feel seen, supported and capable of more.
This is a conversation about resilience, self-awareness, and the uncomfortable truth that childhood bullying doesn’t disappear with time - but how you respond to it can ultimately make or break your adult life.
If you’ve ever felt held back by experiences you thought you’d moved on from, this episode will resonate deeply.
