Background:

I’ve been independently escorting in the US for almost 4 years now. Business was great for the first 2 but the last 2 have been difficult for me, financially.

I now work a full time job in my field on top of escorting. Escorting makes more money but I definitely wouldn’t be getting by without both.

I want to move up in my field which would require I go to grad school, and I would likely be relocating for school. I’ve been in the same city since I started escorting, and I’ve always been face out, but moving up in my civi professional career makes me want to reel in some of my digital footprint from escorting to maintain privacy.

Question:

For those of you that have made this transition (for whatever reason), how did you go about it? Was it abrupt? Slow retreat? Full rebrand?

My current thoughts are to get everything set up for a full rebrand, new persona, new photos, new everything, then just make old stuff disappear overnight to the best of my abilities.

I understand that some things are forever, and there is a risk of people connecting the dots from old you to new you, but how can this be minimized?

I’ve never been one to censor my photos in any way so not only is my face out there but so are my tattoos. Do you think I should not show tattoos when I rebrand? Or is the risk minimal?

Any thoughts/tips are appreciated 💖
