Episode 16: Why Young Women Should Not Cosplay as Sex Workers When Dating

In this episode, I explore the emotional, psychological and financial consequences of transactional dynamics in modern dating.   Money is not just practical. It is tied to power, survival, autonomy and dignity.   For generations, women were socialised to believe that financial safety should come through romantic attachment to men. Historically this made structural sense — but today, women have the capacity to earn, own and build independent financial lives. The psychological script,however, has not fully caught up with reality.   This episode also explores: ● the illusion of "getting one over" on men through financial extraction ● the long-term risks of dependency in relationships and motherhood ● the importance of adult dignity through income generation   Work with me   If this episode resonates with you and you want practical support to change your relationship with money, visibility, and authority:   If you are ready to move beyond awareness and begin structural personal change, you can learn more about:   Return to Self - The 6-Month Integration Container: https://unpunishablewoman.mykajabi.com/offers/ZSpXHs82/checkout   Learn how to generate income through selling your skills and expertise — online and to corporate organisations:   The Sales Intensive (DIY): https://unpunishablewoman.mykajabi.com/offers/uS2zdny7/checkout   Read My Substack:  https://substack.com/@unpunishablewoman Find Me on TikTok:  @theunpunishablewoman
