Juniper Fitzgerald talks about her upcoming book, Enjoy Me Among My Ruins published by Feminist Press. Viewing her story as a reclamation project, she talks about playing with structure and writing against the progressive linear timeline by sharing fragments of her experiences as a sex worker, an academic and a mother, the significance of Lolita, journal entries, and letters to Dr. Scully.
In S02 E03 our guests share their experiences in navigating parenthood as SWers, the skillsets that are learned through SW, and how they are raising their children to further reduce the stigma around parenthood & SW. These sex positive stories teach us how to have hard conversations with our kids. On The Whorizon is a podcast about what's on the whorizon for sex workers, and how to navigate it. We want to elevate sex worker stories and experiences, as well as provide tangible takeaways to approach sex work as a business model, should listeners choose to envision it that way.

In Episode 7, we weigh into the debate that is so often recycled in leftist spaces, "Will there be sex work after the revolution?" We also ask, why does this question keep coming up? What does this say about leftist attitudes toward sex work? And most important, what is the value of sex work, what does it contribute to society, and what is its connection to capitalism? Welcome back to On The Whorizon, a SexWorkCEO podcast hosted by Jessie Sage, and MelRose Michaels. On The Whorizon is a podcast about what's on the whorizon for sex workers, and how to navigate it. In the first half of season one, we lay the foundation for the past and present 'war on whores' with the aim to educate and help listeners understand the historical context that's lead sex workers to where we are today. The second half of season one will focus more on the actual 'work of sex work' and what it means to work within the sex industry in a contemporary context. We want to elevate sex worker stories and experiences, as well as provide tangible takeaways to approach sex work as a business model, should listeners choose to envision it that way.
