In this episode of Creators Spicy Tea, I discusses my golden rules for adult content creators, emphasizing the importance of maintaining mental health, understanding personal capital, and implementing safety practices. I share insights on avoiding burnout, the significance of age verification, and the necessity of watermarking content. The conversation gets a bit intense as I go through the experiences that forced those Golden rules into practice and practical advice aimed at helping creators learn from my mistakes. Takeaways Do not spend more of your own capital than you get in return. Read the terms of service for every platform you use. Comparison is the death of self-confidence. Your growth is not defined by any numbers out there. Age verification is non-optional for direct sellers. Always receive payment in full before providing content. Watermark your content to protect your work. Burnout can happen, so recognize the signs early. Celebrate your progress, regardless of numbers. Utilize resources available for mental health support.
