This latest volume, which is scheduled for release in October, will include contributions from Niemchak and ten other experts in various industries that address the growing problem of bullying.

“Children and adults have more chronic stress in their lives than at anytime in history,” explains Niemchak, the owner of Ideal Lifestyle Advocates.  “Electronic devices and the internet have allowed bullies an unlimited platform to destroy others.  Bullying is senseless it destroys lives and it must be eliminated.”

BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid, is a project started by Alex Changho, a martial arts professional and business coach.

“There are many programs out that are meant to help parents and kids deal with bullying,” says Changho.  “But so many of them are designed to ‘keep the peace’  or ‘reduce conflict at schools’ instead of actually addressing the real problem.  The problem is not bullying in itself.  The problem is the negative effects that bullying has on kids.  The solution is to bullyproof the individual, by empowering more people, and helping them feel great about themselves.  When inevitably the bullying happens, it will be ineffective.”

Niemchak’s involvement in the BULLYPROOF project will bring an effective, working solution to the families of Raleigh through health and wellness.  Along with the release of the book, Ideal Lifestyle Advocates will hold free workshops, resources, and training for the community.
