My Black Trans Life As A Former Sex Worker Turned Entrepreneur
I was heading down a dead-end path to nowhere. One night in February of 2019, I came home from my posh bowling birthday bash to depleted funds and depleted ambition.

Since I was always raised to make a difference and not put limitations on myself, why had I succumbed to my circumstances? Why was I lever
