What Happens When Your Past Never Goes Away?

Felicity's dietary approach is deeply rooted in her personal experience with chronic eczema as a child, which she discovered was linked to food sensitivities, including celiac disease. This led her to become 'obsessive and curious' about nutrition. She found that a 'paleo, more carnivore based diet' works best for her, especially as a blood type O positive individual. Her diet primarily consists of high-quality, organic, grass-fed meats and eggs, complemented by low-glycemic vegetables like squash and sweet potatoes, and organic fruits for carbohydrates. She strictly avoids grains, most dairy (except for organic parmesan), processed sugars, and seed oils. She emphasizes cooking with organic butter and preparing her own food to maintain control over ingredients. This disciplined approach is aimed at keeping her body 'clean,' supporting digestive health, and preventing issues like excess bacteria or yeast, which she links to skin problems and hormonal imbalances. She notes that even small amounts of sugar alcohols or processed ingredients can trigger negative reactions like breakouts.

Felicity maintains a highly disciplined routine of healing modalities to counteract the stresses of her lifestyle, which she admits can involve 'beating my body up' through partying and late nights. She considers float tanks a crucial part of this, doing them at least twice a month. She describes them as 'Epsom salt on crack' due to the intense magnesium absorption and the feeling of full body regeneration they provide. In addition to float tanks, she regularly gets massages, uses a vibration plate daily, and incorporates daily foam rolling, stretching, and yoga into her routine. These practices collectively serve as a proactive and reactive strategy to maintain physical well-being, flexibility, and recovery.

Felicity is highly conscious of her bone health due to a strong family history of osteoporosis, specifically her mother requiring both hip replacements. To proactively address this, she makes a deliberate effort to ensure her body is well-mineralized, focusing on consuming sufficient salts and high-quality protein. Additionally, she takes silica supplements, which she considers a 'game changer' for her. The host reinforces the importance of axial loading and strength training for bone density, particularly as women approach perimenopause, suggesting that even low-weight, high-rep exercises or single-set-to-failure training can be beneficial for stimulating osteoblasts without necessarily bulking up.

Felicity explains that prior to OnlyFans, adult film performers would work for production companies, receiving a flat fee for their work without any ongoing royalties. These companies would then own and distribute the content, using the performer's image to build their own brand. OnlyFans disrupted this model by providing a platform where individuals could directly create and monetize their own content, effectively becoming their own employers. This allowed performers to earn residual income from their fanbase, which was a significant draw for Felicity when she was looking to transition away from traditional adult film production.

Felicity expresses deep concern about specific categories within the porn industry, such as 'underage barely legal,' 'high school,' or 'college.' She views these categories as highly problematic because they normalize and romanticize the sexualization of young individuals, creating unrealistic and dangerous perceptions. She believes this desensitization can act as a 'slippery slope,' potentially leading individuals down a path where they become increasingly comfortable with, and eventually seek out, illegal and harmful content involving children. She mentions working with organizations like Exodus Cry that expose the dark side of the industry and the exploitation of vulnerable young women.

Felicity, despite having a Catholic background, describes feeling a palpable 'darkness' and 'weirdness' within the porn industry. She contrasts the energy at porn conventions with that of health and biohacking conferences, noting a stark difference in the 'vibration' of the people and atmosphere. She suggests that the industry attracts certain types of individuals and that the environment itself can feel spiritually oppressive. The host supports this by referencing Napoleon Hill's 'Outwitting the Devil,' which discusses how 'dark forces' use 'sex, drugs, and rock and roll' to corrupt individuals, aligning with Felicity's observations of rampant drug use and the 'bastardization of the sex act' within the industry.

Felicity explains that once a person enters the adult entertainment industry, it's incredibly difficult to leave. The financial incentives are significant, making it hard to transition to jobs that offer less immediate income. Furthermore, the digital nature of the content means that a performer's past work remains accessible online indefinitely, leading to constant fan engagement and pressure to return. This creates a situation where the 'door is always open' for performers to go back, especially during vulnerable times like breakups or financial insecurity. The lasting digital footprint also makes it challenging to pursue 'normal' careers or relationships, as potential employers or partners can easily discover their past work, leading to judgment and pigeonholing.

Felicity strongly believes that the legal age for entering the adult entertainment industry should be raised from 18 to 21. She reflects on her own experience, having entered the industry at 19 when she felt lost, confused, and prone to impulsive decisions. She argues that young people, particularly those under 21, lack the life experience and mental fortitude to fully comprehend the permanent and far-reaching consequences of their actions in an industry where content remains online forever. Raising the age would provide a crucial buffer, allowing individuals more time to mature and make more informed decisions about a career that can 'haunt' them and severely impact their future relationships and job prospects.
