LOS ANGELES — Women in Adult (WIA) has announced the return of its biweekly Clubhouse chat series, set for Thursdays at 6 p.m. (PDT) with hosts Leah Mahi and Vanessa Eve, that will explore "a variety of relatable topics specific to women who work within the adult industry," noted a rep.
Tonight's discussion is titled "Finding Purpose in Porn" with guests Allie Awesome, Noah Bensi, MelRose Michaels and Sofia Rose.
"In this chat, the panel will discuss the path to building a meaningful career and finding fulfillment in their work through intentionality, passion and purpose," the rep explained.
"The mission of WIA is to connect with the community through honest, real and relatable conversations. Everyone is involved in learning from, support and relate to one another by sharing experiences," added the rep. "These conversations also give listeners from outside the adult industry a better understanding of the inner workings of the adult space and the people in it."
Mahi said she is "excited to get back to having talks with a purpose."
"We have some exciting topics of discussion and amazing guests lined up," she added. "We also want to continue talking about relevant topics, so if there is a topic on your mind that you want us to discuss, whether work-related or something that'd be relatable to our community, please hit up Vanessa or me with your ideas."
Eve offered gratitude for the camaraderie the series has already established.
"The afternoon before our last Clubhouse chat, my dad had unexpectedly passed away. You can never prepare yourself to receive news like that, so I just folded," she said. "I feel fortunate that all of the ladies rallied to show their support during that difficult moment. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Lotus Lain for stepping in as a last-minute host and Leah for being my rock."
"I'm looking forward to getting back into the swing of things tonight with these discussions about real-life topics that matter to us as individuals and as members of the adult community," Eve continued.
"It's relatable conversations like these that have validated just how important having a support system of people who can relate to what you're going through really is. Tonight's topic, 'Finding Purpose in Porn,' will explore how we've tapped into our passions to find purpose in our work. This conversation is essential right now as we emerge from the throes of a pandemic when everyone was pondering their life path at one point or another."
