The Only Consultant, Taxes and Titties with Katherine Studley

In this conversation, Mistress AudryLu Black sits down with Katherine Studley—a tax consultant who works fluently in the spicy economy—to unravel the quiet complexities of filing taxes as a sex worker. They talk about the realities that rarely make it into polite financial advice: stigma, discretion, and the very real labor of keeping your livelihood protected in a world that isn’t always kind or fair.Katherine breaks down why treating your work like a business matter—how clean organization, separating personal and professional finances, and, in some cases, forming an LLC can be acts of both self-respect and self-defense. Along the way, she offers clear, practical guidance on staying compliant, avoiding common mistakes, and building financial systems that don’t rely on shame or secrecy.Most importantly, she models what so many in this industry need but rarely receive: a judgment-free space where questions are welcome, realities are acknowledged, and taking care of yourself is not only allowed but encouraged.Important links:www.IRS.govhttps://stan.store/theonlyconsultantCredits: Producers Maypop, Siren, Sunflower, Zinnia and Dahlia; Sound Editor Primrose; Music Creators Nick Ruiz and Dawson Kroeger
