Benny Nikole - Boyfriends, Boundaries, Multi-talented & Running a studio & more!

Author: Kristy Jessica June 13, 2024 Duration: 1:01:20
Benny Nikole is a full time creative person: nude model, photographer, studio owner, makeup artist and more! I have known her personally as we are both from Seattle.  Benny and I talked about supportive versus unsupportive boyfriends, the nude modeling community, and taking the leap of faith into starting her own studio during the pandemic! She is gutsy and fully immersed in full time creativity, which is super inspiring!  We also talked about how we learn to stick up for our selves at photo shoots, through experience... some people make some pretty unsafe and crazy requests! Check out Benny on her socials! https://www.instagram.com/bennynikole/

Hosted by Kristy Jessica, Sunrise Life-beyond skin deep conversations with freelance nude models pulls back the curtain on a profession often shrouded in mystery and misconception. This isn't a series of sensationalized tales, but a grounded space where traveling freelance models speak candidly. They share the full spectrum of their lives-the genuinely awesome and liberating moments alongside the occasionally creepy or challenging encounters on the road. Each episode reveals how these individuals navigate the same complex human struggles as anyone else, from financial instability and social anxiety to overcoming shame or leaving toxic relationships. The core of this podcast is found in that raw confiding, where vulnerability becomes a strength. By focusing on these deeper conversations, the series moves past the surface to explore how connection and understanding are built. Listeners will hear authentic dialogues that are by turns entertaining, thought-provoking, and deeply relatable, reminding us of the shared experiences that unite us all. Tune in for a unique perspective that artfully blends personal narrative with broader themes of society, art, and culture.
