Publisher's 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.

Definitely recommend. Whether you’re a sex worker or know someone who is.
Sex workers can learn a lot from this book, from planning for the future to practical tips for the now. If you know a sex worker and want to understand it better, this book can do that too. Realistic and not pessimistic or overly optimistic either.
The secondary voice was unnecessary and kind of distracted from the main voice.

Highly recommend to all SWs and allies
I have been a sex worker for over 7 years, am currently writing a doctoral dissertation on sex work and lead a sex worked book club once a month - this is hands down one of the most relatable and honest sex work books I have ever read. I read it with my boyfriend (who is not a sex worker) and he found it very insightful as well. I encourage all sex workers and SW allies to check it out!!

Informative, intelligent, practical, heartfelt and beautiful. Lola Davina has crafted a work that strikes back in the loveliest way against isolation, stigma and shame.
