In this day and age, a lot of us are gig workers. And that can mean flexibility, but it can also mean unpredictable ups and downs. In this episode, we learn from the real experts on hustling and succeeding as a freelancer: unionized strippers! When dancers at the Star Garden strip club were fired for speaking out against an unsafe workplace, they rallied together and went on strike. In our final episode of The Dough, we give you an empowering story that leaves you with tips on how to make your work, work for you.

 

Please note, The Dough contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.
