In this episode, we get to know Alice personally, learning about her childhood upbringing, how she learned about sex-ed, and her early career steps that led her to becomming a legal brothel sex worker. We have a discussion on the common misconceptions about the sex work industy and its stigmas. Lastly, I get to ask Alice some fun and juicy questions about her work as a sex worker — the good, the bad, and the ugly. Alice has managed to use her notoriety as one of the highest-earning sex workers in the world to push forward causes that she believes in. She founded the political action group "Hookers for Healthcare" to fight for healthcare policies that benefit sex workers and other stigmatized groups. She also co-founded the Nevada Brothel Association, a committee that advocates for the rights of women working in Nevada's bordellos.
