Roxy Longworth joins Stephanie to talk about her harrowing story of growing up online. In this powerful and emotional conversation, Roxy shares her journey from being a vulnerable 13-year-old coerced into sending explicit photos to becoming a leading voice for online safety and digital consent. Roxy is the author of When You Lose It, a moving dual narrative between mother and daughter, and the founder of Behind Our Screens, a platform collecting real stories from young people about growing up online. Her mission is to turn trauma into transformation and make the internet a safer place for future generations. From sextortion and shame to activism and recovery, Roxy opens up about the reality of digital coercion, the emotional toll of image-based abuse, surviving a mental health crisis, the power of speaking out, and why young people must be heard in shaping online spaces. This is a conversation every parent, teen, educator, and policymaker needs to hear.
