Pro Cuddle Hustle is a labor of love. Felicity never promotes corporations during this show.
*Throughout this episode, you may hear Felicity accidentally say 'certified' interchangeably with 'trained'. That is a mistake. Under the current system at Cuddlist, being trained and being certified are separate tiers. Apologies for any confusion that may have arisen.
