This is a story I’ve never shared in full—not with my family, and not even with the friends who know parts of it. But today, I’m putting it all on the table.

If you’ve been listening to the first three episodes, you’ll know my mission: to create a space where people feel safe to share their raw, unfiltered truths—the stuff that rarely sees the light of day. But for that to happen, I need to lead by example.

So, today, I’m diving into a chapter of my life that shaped me in ways I never expected. I won’t give too much away here, but I’ll share why I never imagined myself in that line of work and how the event that made me stop left me with emotions I didn’t see coming.

It’s vulnerable, it’s real, and it’s a conversation that might just surprise you as much as it surprised me.

Big love and serious respect to all the sex workers out there, this line of work isn’t easy and I hope my story can shed some light on the dangers of the industry for you.
