Summary

Sex work is "easy money?" Hardly. The adult industry is riddled with pitfalls and dangers. Erotic labor is often emotionally demanding, draining, and complex. It can be hard to know who to turn to for advice on keeping yourself safe and sane. Lola Davina, former stripper, dominatrix, porn actress, and escort, provides the life skills you need to prosper, including:

  • Cultivating friendships, community, and romance
  • Mastering money
  • Debunking sex industry myths such as: you have to be flawless, or clients hate to hear "no"
  • Avoiding trigger states, like loneliness, fatigue, boredom, anxiety and depression, that lead to bad decision-making and burnout
  • Surviving bad calls, shifts, and shoots...and so much more!

Thriving in sex work means having a healthy body, mind, heart, and bank account. No matter your job title or gender, whether you're independent or work for someone else, if you want to succeed in sex work, this book is for you.

Perfect

This is a book I wish i had read twenty years ago. I'd recommend it as a manual for the new and the more long term workers in the sex industry. She's brilliant, kind and eloquent and has brilliant advice for people at all stages of their careers.

A wonderful book

This is possibly the best self help book I’ve read. Strip (pardon the pun) out the sex work bit and it’s full of compassion and love, sane sensible advice and humour. Lola’s voice is as soothing as it is erotic. It doesn’t hide the ugly truths and doesn’t sugar coat but is clear and concise. Wonderful.

Not what I was hoping for

Not what I was looking for. More about how to look after your mental health than anything else.
I was hoping for true stories of occasions and problems, and how to deal with these situations....
