When We're Not Hustling: Sex Workers Talking About Everything But

In this episode of *When We're Not Hustling After Party*, Jessie Sage, Emery Fields, and Emily Foster discuss the appeal of van life and the challenges of minimal living. Emery shares his dream of a U.S. road trip and a simplified lifestyle, while Jessie reflects on her own experiences with van living, including the difficulties of maintaining cleanliness in small spaces. They explore the emotional significance of housing security, the comforts of home ownership, and the dynamics of solo versus group travel. The conversation shifts to psychedelics, examining their potential for self-discovery, ego reduction, and heightened self-awareness. The hosts differentiate between using substances for escapism versus exploration and consider the societal and legal controls on psychedelics. The episode concludes with reflections on the value of personal rituals, self-reflection, and the role of intention in fostering growth.
