The price of Success: Money & Mental Health in the adult industry.

Money in the adult industry isn’t just about what you earn, it’s about what it costs emotionally, mentally, and relationally. From unpredictable income and financial stigma to burnout and challenges to self-worth, this panel explores the complex relationship between money and mental health for adult industry professionals. A panel of therapists, financial educators, and performers will dive into the emotional rollercoaster of feast-or-famine pay cycles, the pressure to monetize every moment, and how to cope when income becomes tied to identity. Expect real talk, evidence-informed strategies, and a judgment-free space to unpack shame, build financial resilience, and protect your peace while pursuing success. Whether you’re navigating inconsistent income, setting boundaries with fans, or simply trying to find balance between the hustle and your health, this session offers tools and community to support your financial and emotional well-being.
