MIAMI, Fla. – “Sex power couple” Jet Setting Jasmine and King Noire announced Thursday they will be appearing at the virtual Sexual Health Alliance conference tomorrow, October 9 and Saturday, October 10.
The online conference is designed to “train sex therapists, sex educators and professionals on issues that create barriers to clients in alternative lifestyle relationships, sex workers and/or marginalized communities having healthy and genuine relationships with mental health providers,” according to the announcement from Jasmine and Noire.
The statement added that the SHA conference will “challenge providers to assess their own biases and undertaking of stigma towards clients with different backgrounds, professions and lifestyles, that taint their ability to provide comprehensive ethical care. Students will learn directly from sex-positive professionals including sex workers, medical providers and attorneys to be best positioned at supporting their clients.”
The SHA will offer two full scholarships to the Black Indigenous People of Color Adult Industry Collective (BIPOC-AIC) to pursue a career in sex therapy, educating and or consulting, with SHA saying “this negotiation is in full concert with King and Jasmine’s efforts to direct sex workers toward opportunities to pursue longevity in the sex industry, given the lived skills, knowledge and abilities that sex workers are very much transferable to the mainstream therapeutic space.”
“It feels right to have people that want to serve our community and or educate others about sex and sexuality actually learn from people that are living the life,” Jasmine said. “As a psychotherapist myself, I know that some of the best education I received was experiential and intimate with the population I wanted to help.”
“I am also thrilled that we have an opportunity to offer other sex workers this scholarship that can add another dimension to their careers,” Jasmine added. “Sustaining oneself in the sex industry is so important, as many have found that trying to shift into mainstream work is often met stigma and unsatisfactory ways of earning a living. I want to see people be able to use their skillsets long into their retirement.”
“We are beyond excited to welcome Jasmine into the SHA family,” said a spokesperson from the SHA. “We fell in love with her instantly with her work and wisdom surrounding unconventional clients and therapeutic approach. This is one conference you do not want to miss. Jasmine will do a deep dive into the hottest topics facing your clients. This weekend will push your boundaries and help you grow into a sexceptional professional.”
