Synopsis

Georgia Harrison's story as you've never heard it before. Explosive and inspiring, Georgia reveals the shocking truth of how she suffered revenge porn at the hands of her ex - and how she fought to get her life back.

'One woman's campaign for justice for herself and for all victims of image-based sexual abuse. Georgia writes with unflinching honesty and, perhaps most powerfully, with hope' ELIZABETH DAY

In 2020, Georgia Harrison's ex-boyfriend Stephen Bear shared intimate footage of her online without her consent. With the click of a button, Georgia's innocence and dignity were stolen. But now she's taking her power back. This is not a sad story - it's a story about the power of hope, a journey to justice, and a rallying cry for change.

In court, Georgia was finally allowed to tell her side of the story - and Bear was found guilty of revenge porn and voyeurism in what became the most talked-about case in the British media. This culminated in a 21-month jail sentence, a ruling that has cemented Georgia as a feminist icon.

This is Georgia's story like you've never heard it before. Unfiltered and unflinching, Georgia pulls back the curtain on the nightmare that could have crushed her, but that made her who she is today. Georgia is proud to be a voice for women, determined to help victims of image-based sexual abuse seek justice. Holding nothing back, she shines a light on how to navigate traumatic times - the importance of hope, building resilience and a positive mindset.

Taking Back My Power is more than just a memoir; it's an entire movement.

'Georgia has been so brave. A total inspiration. Everyone should read this book' EM CLARKSON
