The art world is notorious for its gatekeeping. This makes Hannah Studnick's story all the more remarkable. At 31, with zero art world experience, she opened Ruby/Dakota Gallery in New York's Alphabet City because a psychic told her she would.The space (originally found on Craigslist) transformed into something profound. In this candid conversation, Hannah reveals how Ruby/Dakota honours her late twin sister Emma, turning personal grief into a platform for artistic healing. Hannah's journey from the reality television industry to dental assistant to gallery owner unfolds like a screenplay, complete with chance encounters, spiritual guidance, and a driving belief that supporting living artists creates something meaningful in a fractured world. With disarming honesty, she discusses navigating the commercial gallery landscape during "the worst period in history for art sales," and creating daring exhibitions. What makes Hannah's perspective so refreshing is her commitment to democratising art collecting. Her advice to aspiring gallerists pulls no punches: "Don't do it unless you need to do it," she warns, describing the "manic-dead cycle" of exhibition preparations followed by quiet gallery hours.In just one year, Ruby Dakota has been visited by art critic Jerry Saltz, featured in New York Magazine and The Wall Street Journal, and participated in Future Fair. Beyond these achievements, Hannah's greatest accomplishment is creating a space where emerging artists can process trauma through their practice, collectors can discover meaningful work, and the traditional barriers of the art world begin to crumble. Today also happens to be Ruby/Dakota's one year birthday! I'm excited to share Studnick's story and see where the gallery goes from here. Listen today to learn how an art world outsider is challenging conventions and proving that genuine passion, coupled with business savvy and an authentic voice, can create space for new perspectives in contemporary art.

Sex workers describe their very first day on the job NSFW - r/nsfw Podcast - Reddit NSFW StoriesEvery job has a first day — and that includes sex work.It's not like what you see in the movies (though sometimes you may find some elements of Hollywood in there), and it's not all pretty, but it can be interesting and, sometimes, even a little funny.According to prostitutes, erotic masseuses, and other sex workers on Reddit, here's what that very first day on the job is like."I started working because I'd gotten a few propositions through a dating website. I was studying med at the time and I was short on money. So one time, this guy made me what seemed like a lucrative offer and I agreed... A week or two later, I drove over to his apartment. I was petrified, but I needed the money so I rang the doorbell. It was a lovely apartment, and he paid upfront. He was nice enough. He asked me to do some things that I didn't want to do, so I said, 'Maybe not this time.' Kept an eye on the time (via the helpful clock radio next to the bed) and thankfully he finished on time. Had a shower, bit of a chat afterwards, and then he kissed me goodbye on the cheek.""I drank a heap of wine before I went to the agency. This was about 2.5 years ago when the industry was booming. I did booking after booking and went home with a massive wad of cash. I didn't think about it too much. I just loved the rush of being booked and making so much money. The industry is dead over here now and I have no idea why.""My first night, I was ridiculously nervous. I went to an upscale hotel, nervously walked through the lobby, hoping I looked like I belonged there, and not like what I was really there for. I was nervous the whole elevator ride up. I walk to his room, lightly knock on the door. He opens the door, says (for the story's sake, we will use the name Sarah) 'Hi, Sarah?' and like an idiot I reply with my real name. We laughed it off. It was quick, 10 minutes. He was polite and clean. In the area for business. I ended up seeing him a few more times over the years, always very nice. Tipped on top of the hourly rate, which was always appreciated and made me choose to see him over other clients in the future.""I was a different type of sex worker, a pro Domme. My first pro session was terrible! He was a good client, however anything bad that could have happened did happen... Including cracking his rib during a trample session (very rare when everything is done correctly). However I never had an issue after that first session, and ended up with quite a few wonderful regulars.""I'm a straight male escort and... for my first booking, I received an email from a girl that basically went as follows: 'Hi, I'd like to book you as a birthday present for my friend's 24th surprise party.' ... I turned up early to help these girls prepare the surprise and they're all insanely attractive. Out-of-my-league attractive. The girl who booked me then drops this bombshell on me: 'Oh, by the way, all of us are either escorts or strippers.' Uh oh, I'm in way over my head...""The guy paid me $60/hour for three hours. He smoked a few bowls, talked about jazz, and then very creepily went on and on about my boobs. I jerked him for like 30 minutes with this horrible rose-scented lotion, blew him, and eventually we had sex. I was impressed he could get it up with how high he was and figured he must be on something else. That's mostly what I was thinking about the whole time.""I was 22, just graduated with a BA in a major that would make me no money... I posted on Craigslist ($400 an hour; I had no clue about rates and still don't, but from this thread it seems high) and met a man the next night at his house for an agreed-upon 30 minutes. We sat on the couch and talked a little bit. He ran a small business, divorced, overweight, 40s... I liked him, so I kept going until he finished -- maybe another 20 minutes? I didn't charge him for the extra. I didn't enjoy it as much as I would with a regular partner, but it wasn't bad.""He was in his 40s, from another town, and offered me $900 for the night. When the night came along, he booked a hotel, and I went over there some time that evening. I was so nervous, I could barely speak a word when I got there. He was an average-looking guy. I wasn't attracted to him but it didn't cross my mind that it mattered. I was still about to have sex with someone I technically just met, and for money... After that, we just went to sleep and I left in the morning."Sex workers describe their very first day on the job NSFWr/nsfw Podcast - Reddit NSFW StoriesSex workers describe their very first day on the job NSFW - r/nsfw Podcast - Reddit NSFW StoriesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-cheating-wives-and-girlfriends-stories-2025-true-cheating-stories-podcast--5689182/support.

Turning Trash into Cash – The Freecycle - Craigslist Side Hustle Blueprint I

Business Coaching with Join Up Dots

In this episode of Join Up Dots, we pull back the curtain on a side hustle that's so simple, so accessible, and so completely overlooked by most people, it might just become your favourite way to make money. It's a strategy hiding in plain sight—right there on your street, online in community forums, and even tucked behind the ‘Free Stuff' section of your local Facebook Marketplace. We call it Turning Trash into Cash, and today we break down exactly how you can start turning discarded items into real, regular income. You don't need a website, a brand, or a social media presence to get started. You don't need to sign up for courses or buy into business systems. This is business at its most grassroots: you find something someone no longer wants, you clean it up, maybe fix it slightly, and you find someone else who's happy to pay for it. The profit is in the gap between who wants it gone and who sees its worth. And that's where you come in. This isn't about being a scavenger—it's about being a problem solver. You're helping people declutter, giving items a second life, and supplying others with things they need at a better price. And while you're doing all of that, you're also earning money for yourself. It's practical, purposeful, and completely within your control. We start by explaining why this hustle works. The world is drowning in stuff. People have garages, sheds, spare rooms and even storage units full of things they no longer use or want. Whether it's because they're moving, downsizing, or just fed up with clutter, many of them are happy to see it gone for free. They just want someone to come and take it. You become that someone—and what you do next is where the magic happens. The heart of this side hustle is the ability to see opportunity in what others overlook. That wobbly side table? That stack of old books? That rusty bike? Most people ignore them. But if you can look a little deeper, you'll see what they could be, not what they are. That's what makes this work. A little elbow grease, a quick fix, a good clean and a photo taken in decent lighting can be all it takes to turn an item from forgotten to valuable. To show just how possible this is, we walk you through a real-life scenario in the episode. Imagine scrolling Facebook Marketplace and finding a solid oak coffee table being given away for free. It's a bit scratched but still in great shape. You arrange to collect it that day, give it a good clean and a polish, and then list it for £40. Within 48 hours, someone picks it up—and just like that, you've made money. Now repeat that five times a week. That's £600 to £800 a month in your pocket, just by being proactive and creative. We also explore where to find the best free stuff. Freecycle, Craigslist, Nextdoor, Gumtree, and Facebook Marketplace all have rich “Free” sections full of potential. But don't forget about offline gems either—car boot sales, house clearances, skip bins and those serendipitous finds left out on the street with a “take me” sign. There are opportunities everywhere, once your eyes are trained to look. One thing we love about this hustle is that it grows with you. You don't need a van or warehouse to start. You can use a bike trailer, your car boot, or even just carry items home. You can store things in your garage or spare room and set a personal goal of flipping just one or two items a week. Or, if you catch the bug and want to scale it up, you can expand into house clearances, develop a reputation in your local area, or create a small community brand. You're in charge. You decide how big or small it becomes. Throughout the episode, we also talk about how to price items, how to spot red flags, and how to avoid things that could cost more than they're worth—like broken electronics or water-damaged furniture. We cover safety tips, transport hacks, and clever ways to maximise space. And we finish with a clear, step-by-step action plan that will help you turn this episode into action by the end of the week. But this is more than just a hustle for income. It's a mindset shift. Once you start seeing value where others see waste, you'll never look at your surroundings the same way again. You'll notice potential in every neighbourhood skip, every dusty box of books, every garage clear-out. You'll find purpose in giving items a second life. And with every flip, you'll be building confidence, resilience, and resourcefulness. It's also worth saying that this hustle is environmentally conscious. Instead of adding to landfill, you're reducing waste. Instead of buying new, you're encouraging reuse. It's circular economy thinking in action—and that makes this more than just a way to earn money. It's a way to do good while doing well. So if you've been waiting for the “right idea” to get started… if you've ever told yourself that business is too complicated, or that you don't know what to sell… or if you're just looking for a way to put an extra £100 a week into your pocket without risking anything—you've just found it. This episode gives you everything you need to know to begin, with zero investment and total control. Now it's over to you. Listen. Learn. Take action. And if you found this episode helpful, share it with a friend or someone in your community who needs a boost of inspiration and a path forward. The more people we help see opportunity where others see obstacles, the stronger and more resilient our communities become. Use the hashtags: #JoinUpDots #TrashToCash #FreecycleHustle #OfflineIncome #FlipForProfit and let's build a ripple effect of creative, resourceful earners making something brilliant from things others throw away.
