Tess shares her fascinating journey from working as a nanny in Orlando to navigating careers in hospitality, property management, and eventually discovering her passion for women's sexual health and wellness. With 18 years of experience in the industry, she discusses how American attitudes toward female sexuality have evolved since she first began, and how "50 Shades of Grey" created a revolution in how women discuss desire.
