#14 - Stripping as a Double-Edged Sword: Art and Addiction

Today we bring on Phoenix Rose, an all-around artist and former stripper (okay, she still strips on occasion!) who had a very peculiar way of entering the industry. We won't spoil the story here - it's a long but really, really good one - but will say that her journey has been truly inspiring. From pole athlete to stripper to fighting injury and addiction, Phoenix Rose has been through it all. She also speaks about her art which she channels through ceramics and film which has been showcased throughout the world with recent works influenced by her time at the club. Such an incredible journey and story.
