Beyond the Bully - Finding My Voice

Beyond Bullying- Self Acceptance by GEB Shelton

G.E.B.S. Shelton’s memoir journey began with Oh Wait; That Was NEVER Me!, a heartfelt and unfiltered exploration of growing up different, facing bullying, questioning identity, and learning to find strength in the very experiences that once caused pain. In Part 2, Purposeful Avoidance, Shelton continues that journey with deeper reflection, sharper honesty, and the same unmistakable voice readers connected with in the first book.

Purposeful Avoidance moves beyond remembering the past. It explores the emotional patterns, protective choices, hidden wounds, and quiet strategies people often use to avoid pain, judgment, confrontation, or even their own truth. With wit, vulnerability, and hard-earned wisdom, Shelton invites readers to look at what they have avoided- and why.
