Ari sits down with Therapist and Sex Worker Raquel Savage. Raquel talks about her fantasies, being autistic and on the Ace Spectrum, and educates us about sex work from a labor framework. We also discuss recognizing the signs of abuse, gaslighting, trauma bonding and how to heal from abuse using community and harm reduction.
