LOS ANGELES—Imperfectly You, an online platform dedicated to the well-being of sex workers, has officially launched with an exclusive offer for 100 members: a monthly subscription of $9.99 per month, plus a 30-day free trial.
The platform’s mission is "to unite sex workers globally, empowering them to thrive and grow both personally and professionally through community, events, education and support."
Founded in 2023 by cam model and life coach, Emma Martin, the platform has been in beta testing for four months. Based in the UK, Imperfectly-You.com supports a diverse range of female identifying, assigned female at birth (AFAB) and non-binary members across various types of sex work, both online and in-person.
“For so long I felt isolated and yearned for a space where I could make genuine connections with others in the industry, free from judgement," founder Emma Martin said. "Imperfectly You is not about striving for perfection; it's about embracing all that we are, learning from our experiences, and growing together as a group. This platform is my answer to the isolation so many of us face, creating a community where we can all thrive.”
Martin said the site prioritizes "mental, emotional, and physical well-being."
"Sex workers often face loneliness, stigma, and the pressures of self-employment, making it hard to find a supportive space where they can truly be themselves," she added. "Stigma is one of the main causes of poor mental health, loneliness and isolation within the adult industry. This is why Imperfectly You provides a safe, verified community to reduce isolation, where members can share their experiences and connect with others, fostering a genuine sense of belonging."
The platform offers self-development tools, including expert-led events, workshops, and peer discussions. It also has weekly group coaching sessions to help members identify their next steps inside and outside of work; and forums serve as a hub for advice and information.
