What Does Your Past Really Cost You

from Let's Talk About It Hosted by Derick

+1-816-207-7881 A listener named Becky writes us with a question most people only think about in private: if you knew my past, would you still date me? She’s 32, she’s been in adult films since she was 18, and she’s tired of the porn industry drama, the way people see her in public, and the feeling that her life has been reduced to sex and money. She’s safe, she’s never had an STD, and she’s trying to figure out who she is without the labels. We get into what “starting over” really takes when your digital footprint follows you everywhere. We talk about the chaos of a livestream hookup gone wrong, why privacy and personal safety have to come first, and how the internet changes dating for anyone leaving adult entertainment. We also wrestle with the hardest part: when do you tell someone about your past, what do you say, and how do you read the reaction without shrinking yourself? https://www.instagram.com/d6empire357 https://www.instagram.com/thaicon357 https://www.instagram.com/letstalkaboutit357
