35. How to Become an Escort 101

The Whore's Bedroom

Show Notes

You have been asking me - how do I become an escort? What tips do you have for beginners in the industry? I'm finally answering that, and giving my advice for anyone who is interested in entering the world of full service sex work. This advice will also be helpful for those who are already established in the industry in other locations, but are looking for logistical information about specifically working in Europe.

To be clear, this episode is NOT a comprehensive guide that tells you everything you need to know about escorting successfully and safely. This is meant to be a starting point, and it is meant to encourage you to do your own research. Safety information specifically varies so much depending on your location - I touch briefly on safety in this work, but it is imperative that you do your own research and have multiple ways to keep yourself safe while working.

I met Rhys Phillips in London to dive into his work: being a male escort who services women and couples. Our jobs are technically the same, but there are so many interesting differences that I was so excited to ask him about. I absolutely loved this conversation and hope you guys do too!
