For the first time publicly, Thea shares that she spent two years working as a high-end escort, often earning more than $20,000 a month in this season’s finale. She opens up about why she entered sex work, what the experience was actually like for her, and how it changed her views on sex work, money, and the people who pay for sex.Thea discusses advertising, screening, safety, boundaries, and the loneliness and desire for connection she witnessed among clients. She began escorting to buy back her time, fund the early stages of Testie, and eventually move to New York City to continue building and fundraising for the company. Although she has stepped away from the work, she remains committed to the sex-worker community, advocacy, and more honest conversations about the industry.SPONSOR 🧪Seggs Talk Radio is brought to you by⁠ ⁠⁠Testie⁠⁠⁠, which offers nationwide walk-in STI testing.

In this episode of Seggs Talk Radio, the host interviews Dominnique Karetsos, founding partner at Amboy Street Ventures and a strategic advisor to Testy, about the business of pleasure, sexual health, women’s health, and money. They discuss how COVID accelerated sexual wellness (Cult Beauty saw an 800% increase in vibrator sales) and how telehealth shifted conversations about issues like erectile dysfunction, which men may wait up to eight years to discuss with a provider. They explore why STI testing remains taboo, how language and “social permission” shape behavior, and why brands like Testy should guide users through results, care pathways, and partner disclosure.SPONSOR 🧪Seggs Talk Radio is brought to you by⁠ ⁠⁠Testie (testiehealth.com/show)⁠⁠⁠, which offers nationwide walk-in STI testing.
