    For bullied kids, it’s hard to imagine a life without anxiety and fear of taunting or physical abuse, but the fact is, even in what seems like the worst bullying situations, it does eventually get better. Lots of celebrities and famous figures have recently spoken out about their experiences as the targets of bullies, and their stories offer inspiration to anyone who is bullied, whether it’s in the schoolyard or the boardroom.

    These famous, successful people moved beyond their bullies, and some of them even used their experiences as bullying victims to fuel their success. These are fabulous examples to share with kids.
