Fortitude
Everyone has a story of Fortitude! When we tell our stories of pain in adversity - stories of courage, redemption and hope - we give others permission to speak up and get the help they need. Each episode will give the listener a look inside what overcoming adversity looks like no matter what life throws at you. Each story is uniquely different - stories of alcoholism/addiction, infidelity, rape, abuse, loss of a child/children, cancer, rare disease, tragic accidents...etc.! We are in this life together to support one another and build community around hope and redemption. I am your host, Heather Kittelson, and I am so excited to have you here as part of the Fortitude community!

#48: Kendra Russell - Protecting Kids in the Age of Technology
As technology becomes increasingly integrated into our children's lives, so too does the risk of exploitation. Kendra Russell, a digital evidence forensic examiner from South Dakota’s Division of Criminal Investigation, stands at the forefront of the battle against internet crimes targeting children. This episode delves into the subtle yet severe risks lurking on popular gaming platforms like Roblox and across social media landscapes. Kendra shares essential strategies for parents to detect red flags, initiate open dialogues with their children, and establish digital boundaries that not only protect but also foster healthy growth. As we navigate this digital age, learn how to empower your children to thrive online while safeguarding their innocence and ensuring their online experiences are safe and positive.
Don't miss Kendra as a main speaker at the upcoming I AM Fortified event on September 7th, where she will further discuss protecting our youth in the digital era.
