In this episode of Heart to Hustle, I sit down with Reed Amber Thomas-Litman to explore her journey as both a sex worker and the co-creator of Come Curious, the influential sex-positive podcast and YouTube channel. Reed shares the realities of working in an industry often met with censorship and stigma, discussing how she’s built a career that allows her to educate, advocate, and inspire others. We dive into the complexities of sex work, the importance of dismantling shame around sexuality, and the challenges of maintaining a public platform in a world that still polices conversations about pleasure and intimacy. From navigating the stigmas of her profession to using her platform for activism and community-building, Reed embodies what Heart to Hustle is all about. Whether you're interested in sex positivity, curious about the world of sex work, or simply looking for an inspiring conversation about following your passion, this episode delivers raw insight, authenticity, and boldness straight from one of the most outspoken voices in the space.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
