Also on August 19, Red Evie will present “Building a Life I Own: How Money Skills Set Me Free” from 2:45pm – 3:45pm.

“Financial insecurity, banking discrimination, and the pressures of hustle culture can take a heavy emotional toll on adult industry professionals,” said Pineapple Support founder and CEO Leya Tanit. “By bringing these conversations to the forefront, we hope to break stigma, offer practical resources, and provide a community of support. Because financial health is mental health.”

Registration for the event is free and open now to content creators, studio professionals, platform owners, and allies. To sign up and view the full event schedule, click here.
