I Don’t Work 24/7: Why Rest Matters

One of the biggest myths about sex work is the idea that we’re available at any hour of the day, ready to meet a client’s needs with no breaks. I’ve had clients ask, “Are you always working?” or send late-night messages assuming I’m always "on call." But the reality is, just like anyone else, I need rest, time to sleep, and space to recover. And I’m fortunate that my best clients not only understand this — they truly respect it.

I absolutely love my work. It’s fulfilling to connect with different people and offer them a positive experience. There’s a special kind of energy that goes into what I do, whether it’s creating a comfortable environment, being a good listener, or just making someone’s day a little better.

But with that energy comes the need to recharge. While I put my heart into every session, I also need time to reset and take care of myself. This allows me to bring my best self to each client, ensuring that our time together is enjoyable and meaningful.

Rest and recovery are an important part of my life. When I take time for myself, I can approach my work with fresh energy, creativity, and enthusiasm. Sleep, downtime, and self-care aren’t luxuries — they’re essential to being able to perform my job well and give my clients the experience they deserve.

Just like anyone with a demanding job, I need balance. While some clients may wonder why I’m not available around the clock, I know that the time I spend resting helps me be more present and fully engaged when I am working. My well-being matters, and when I feel good, I can offer my clients an even better experience.

I’m lucky to have wonderful clients who really understand the value of my time, both when I’m working and when I’m off the clock. These clients appreciate that I set boundaries and respect my need for personal time. They know that when we do meet, I’ll be fully focused and energized because I’ve had the rest and recovery I need.

My best clients never push for last-minute bookings or expect me to be available at odd hours. Instead, they ask about my availability, book in advance, and make sure that our time together is mutually enjoyable. They treat me with respect, not just as a professional, but as a person with her own life and needs outside of work. And that kind of respect makes all the difference.

To keep things balanced, I’ve learned to manage my time in a way that ensures I’m at my best for every client. I set clear working hours and make sure to carve out plenty of time for myself. When I’m off the clock, I focus on activities that help me relax and recharge, whether that’s spending time with friends, getting a good night’s sleep, or just doing things I enjoy outside of work.

Communication is key. From the very beginning, I’m upfront with clients about my schedule and availability. It helps set the tone for a positive, respectful relationship. When we both know what to expect, things run more smoothly, and everyone walks away feeling good about the experience.

What I love most about my best clients is the mutual respect we have for each other’s time. They understand that I have a life beyond work, and they respect my boundaries. In return, I’m able to give them my undivided attention and energy when we do meet.

This mutual understanding creates a better experience for everyone involved. My clients know that when they see me, they’re getting someone who’s fully present, engaged, and genuinely happy to be there. It’s a win-win, and it’s something I truly value in my relationships with them.

At the end of the day, it’s all about balance. I love my work, and I’m passionate about providing the best possible experience for my clients. But to do that, I need time to rest, recover, and enjoy my personal life. Thankfully, my clients respect that, and it only makes our time together more rewarding.

So no, I don’t work 24/7 — and that’s a good thing! By taking care of myself, I can take better care of my clients. And I’m grateful for the wonderful people I get to work with who understand and respect this balance. Together, we make our time together truly special.
