#201 - Sex Work is Care Work with Fiona Dawson
Manage episode 405608572 series 2895848
Often times, our clients like to dump on us. No, not literally (but maybe they do?!) but moreso dumping on us the woes from life, work stressors, home life, depleting marriages and more. Sometimes our services are sought out for that nurturing care, the the support, the embrace...which is why crises counsellor and fellow SWer, Fiona Dawson, is joining me on this week to speak just about that! Fiona share this perspective that sex work is care work. She compares our work with those who are in the umbrella of care work (ie. therapists, counsellors, social workers, etc.) and we analyze how there is a bit of a double standard going in. Such a fascinating conversation - listen in to the whole episode and let us know what you think!
