SW: Let’s start with how you incorporate mowing the lawn into your OnlyFans.
HB: I am a mom. I run a business, and I have 100-acre farm. So for me, I’m very time poor. My husband also works away. So, when I’m home, I’ve really got to try and juggle everything. When the kids go to school, I’ve got to try and run OnlyFans and the farm at the same time. So, it kind of came about to implement those two together, like do content while I’m doing farm chores. So that’s where I came up with the idea. I would do my gardening and I’d do OnlyFans content, or I would mow and I’d do OnlyFans content.
SW: Prior to OnlyFans, did you flash in public? Did you like the attention? Or Was that just something you did only for OnlyFans?
HB: No. So beforehand, I’ve always been very open-minded, I’ve always been an open book with my sexuality. I’m not someone that’s embarrassed about who I am or how I hold myself. I’m very open. I’ll talk to anyone about anything. But I was never seeking attention, that doesn’t sit with me. I don’t do things for attention. I just do it because I love it. And I really love the freedom side of OnlyFans and what I can do and getting to meet new people and chatting to new people and the life that’s created for me. I think that’s what really drew me in.
SW: It’s admirable the fact that you can run a 100-acre farm and be a mom and do this. That’s amazing.
HB: Thank you. It can get tough sometimes, but I mean, I love it. I wouldn’t have it any other way. It doesn’t feel like work. I just wake up and I get to, enjoy nature and be outside and do all those things.
SW: How did you come to find OnlyFans in the first place? Did it find you? Was it a friend doing it?
HB: I believe it found me. I believe the universe put it out there, but I had no idea what OnlyFans was. I was just a normal mum. We were travelling around Australia in a caravan with my family. And it was there that we met a mum or a lady that was travelling that was doing OnlyFans, and it was so new to me. I just saw that she was living an incredible life, living on her own terms, doing her own thing. At that time, I had a business that was going under, and I was slaving away to it, and the business owned me, and I didn’t have my freedom.
So yeah, that’s the first time I heard about it. And yeah, we jumped in.
SW: When you decide to do it, had that been the first time you’ve taken risqué photos or had you taken risqué photos before that?
HB: No, I’d never taken risqué photos. Myself and my husband, we were very open in the bedroom, and we loved doing new things. But in terms of filming or taking photos and just taking content around that. We’ve never done that before.
SW: What was that like for you the first time you had to show your boobs?
HB: Honestly, it wasn’t a thing for me. I think maybe now because I’ve had kids and I am open with my sexuality. It wasn’t an issue for me. I think if it was an issue, I wouldn’t be here today. You know, it was new, but it was a learning curve. I think because it’s online, I don’t have physical clients with me. I don’t have physical people in front of me when I’m doing it. It’s very different, and you can distance yourself from it. But yeah, I thought the filming part of it was really enjoyable. It was much more difficult than what we thought. But yeah, it was a big learning curve.
- Ok, three questions suddenly come to mind: First, did your husband come in and pitch this to you, or did you come to him and say, ‘Hon, you know I want to be an OnlyFans? ‘
HB: So, when we found out about the OnlyFans business model, we were together. We we’re travelling; we met that lady together. So, it was a conversation, really, together. It was never, a case of I wanted to do it, and he didn’t, or he wanted to do it, and I didn’t. It was like, ‘Wow, this chick’s living a really cool life. Should we look into it more?’ So, it was always a discussion. We never come from a place of one wanting to do it and one not. I don’t think we would be here if that was the case. We always made sure that each other were comfortable with it and that we’re going to do the right thing by each other.
SW: Number two: you mentioned it was a lot more difficult than you thought. Was that in terms of the amount of work involved or some other aspect?
HB: Absolutely. I thought because I was a tall, blonde, I had big boobs,that it would be easy for me, it would just be a walk in the park because stereotypically, that’s what men like. And when I came onto the platform, I realized that there are thousands of other women that are tall, blonde, and got big boobs. So, I didn’t realize that there was such a business side to it, or how hard you had to work. It wasn’t just flashing your boobs or taking a pussy pic and putting it online and getting rich. It was really understanding the business model, the branding, and how to set yourself apart and stand out in a saturated market.
SW: So, from your perspective and with your experience so far on OnlyFans, for branding purposes, to be successful, do you think it’s people come for your personality or they want to see your boobs?
HB: A hundred percent it’s personality. The boobs and the porn and everything is the main aim for sure, but anyone can go to mainstream porn sites to find that, right? They can go absolutely anywhere to get that for free. So, the reason why people are paying to subscribe to you is for your personality. You’ve got something that they like. Yeah, you’ve got boobs, and they’re nice, and that’ll get them over the line. But once they’re on your page, they want to get to know you. And your personality is what sets you apart. Your personality and your relationship-building with your fans is why people come to you. They get that connection, and everyone craves connection, right? We can all go and watch porn and have a happy ending, but not everyone has that opportunity to connect with people, and sometimes they don’t have the opportunity to connect with beautiful women.
SW: From your perspective or maybe your data, have you found you have a specific audience, like maybe eighteen to thirty-five-year-old males or something?
HB: It’s really a wide mix. I do probably get more of the middle-aged men, I would say, but I do get young people all the time. So, it’s really diverse. I don’t get a lot of younger men. I don’t know why. I think the middle-aged men that are working on farms or run farms are the ones that really appeal to my brand.
SW: So you think a big portion of your fan base are people from the farming industry or people that have farms, and it’s a turn on to see you coming from a farm?
HB: Yeah. When I first branded and really exposed my farm side into the business, I did think that it would cut down my niche and it would be only people from the country that would appeal to. But surprisingly, more of my fans aren’t from the country. They’re from small city towns or outside of Australia, and they love it because they either really want to come to Australia. They don’t know much about Australia, or they love the country. And it’s their way that they can kind of escape their city world and come out onto my profile and see what the country’s about and get a little bit closer to it. So a little bit more of the majority of my subscribers would be from cities.
SW: And you mentioned it earlier, there was thousands of women, but for some reason, and I’m not an expert, but a lot of the Australian mothers seem to do extremely well on OnlyFans. Why do you think that is?
HB: I don’t know. My personal opinion, just from what I’ve heard from feedback, is that we just seem to be more bubbly, more personable, and just friendlier in a general. I think that would have a lot to do with it, but I don’t know. I don’t really know many creators outside of Australia, but the ones I know in Australia are very bubbly, very friendly, and love to chat.
SW: At this point, what type of content do you do you provide?
HB: I do it all, all the X-rated content. Everything from implied nude to boy-girls, threesomes, girl girls, solo stuff, do it all.
SW: Is there any specific niche that you seem to be the most popular for you?
HB: Definitely, the boy-girl scenes are much more popular. And a lot of my solo content is very popular. A lot of my subs just really enjoy me and like me. So, my solos are really, really popular. And then, obviously, yeah, my boy-girl scenes that I film with my husband.
SW: When you go to shoot content, do you shoot stuff you want to see or stuff you think will sell?
HB: A little bit of both. So yes, content that I think will sell, but I’ve got to be comfortable with that. I’m not just going to put content out there just because it’s going to sell. I’ve got my boundaries. I’ve got things that I will do and won’t do. So, it’s more of like I want to do it, but I put out angles that I necessarily wouldn’t film or I necessarily wouldn’t do, but I know that angle films and sells really well. So POV, point of view, sells really well. So, things like that, putting those kind of views out there sell a little bit better for my subscribers.
There’s just little things that I would have done differently if it didn’t sell as well. I go with you know, making sure that I feel comfortable first. A lot of the time with filming, it doesn’t always necessarily follow that the way that it looks the best doesn’t always feel the best. So, there’s some compromise there.
SW: You do custom work?
HB: I do. I do custom videos, and I do one-on-one video calls with my subscribers as well.
SW: What’s the craziest request you’ve gotten for a custom?
HB: My craziest requests are actually the most normal ones…for me to be fully clothed. So I get a lot of requests just to be clothed, be myself, walk in mud, massage mud on my feet, take my boots off, go work with my clothes on, answer questions in my clothes, smoke a cigarette in my clothes. So yeah, just a lot of it is just being fully clothed. It’s got nothing to do sexually with my body, but more personality of ticking their box of doing something a bit kinky.
SW: How often do you update your OnlyFans and all that?
HB: I try to aim anywhere between four and six new photos a day on my feed. I put out new content every week, new videos every week. It’s constantly got new stuff on there.
I think it’s really important to have fresh, fun stuff out there and, yeah, just keeping it all vibing.
SW:: What are your social media handles? HB: My social media is my Instagram, and it’s Honey Brooks with two Ys. I’ve got Twitter, which is Brooks Honey with two Ys. And that would probably be my main ones that you can access me on. I do use TikTok and a few other things, but I get banned quite regularly on there, so.
SW: Banned for what you say or banned for the angle you’re showing or what you’re doing?
HB: Just for being a sex worker, I suppose, in general. A lot of the times the video doesn’t even have to be that bad. It’s just if you are if you’ve got a link that’s sending them somewhere else, then those particular platforms aren’t happy with that. So, they will remove you. It’s just the constant battle of being a content creator, I suppose.
SW: In Australia, is being a sex worker is still frowned upon? Do people still look down at it?
HB: Yeah. Absolutely. I think there’s a lack of education around it. I think it is starting to be spoken about a little bit more since COVID’s happened. A lot more women are doing things like this. And you know the times are changing. People are a lot more open now to people’s sexuality and what they want to do with themselves and how they want to live their life. But it is still very taboo. We’ve still got a long way to go, but it is slowly, slightly changing.
SW: You’re a mom. A lot of people say people go on the internet and use sex-related stuff almost like a training device for sex. Do you think you as a content creator have a responsibility to maybe show people that, ‘Hey, this is entertainment. This isn’t real.’
HB: Yeah. I think that it shouldn’t be put upon content creators to put that education out there. I think there should be a lot more education in schools. I think there should be a lot more education from parents. I think there should just be a lot more education in general that’s accessible for young children. I know growing up, my sex conversation with my mum was next to nothing and had to figure it out on my own. And unfortunately, yes, porn is not a very nice educational tool for young people because it’s not teaching pleasure. It’s teaching what looks good. So there needs to be a big change around that, schools need to start really having a proper sex ed, not just one hour out of the whole schooling to just sit down and show how to put a condom on a banana, but really talk about the women’s reproductive system, the male’s reproductive system, how to respect each other, what respect is. It needs to be really in-depth around that.
SW: So people coming to content creators for educational purposes is not the right place to do it, but I mean, you know where else do they go?
HB: When I was growing up, sex education was that sex is bad. It’s was all about don’t have sex, it disgusting. You’ll get pregnant. Somebody will die. So, if there was an open conversation of sex being healthy, men and women both need sex. We respect each other. It’s a part of life. It’s how babies are made, but we also do it for pleasure. It’s not frowned upon. There’s no shame around that. If it was bought into schoolings in the right way, then yeah, I’d be absolutely all for it because, like I said, it is something that’s definitely lacking. It just needs to be done in the right way.
SW: Are you from Melbourne originally, somewhere else?
HB: I’m from Victoria.
SW: Did you go to a public school, private school? Is this educational system there like in America where you go to first to eighth grade and then you go to high school, or is it different?
HB: We have primary school, which goes up to grade six, and then seven is high school that goes up to year twelve, and then you graduate.
SW: In first part of school, we’ll call it grade school for the sake of discussion, did you have a favorite subject?
HB: Yes,my favorite subject was definitely sports, being outside and enjoying the outdoors.
SW: I know you’re really young at that point. Did you have any idea what you wanted to do with the rest of your life?
HB: No, I had no idea. I had no idea when I was in my twenties. I never had an idea of what I wanted to do.
SW: When you got to high school, were you a popular girl? Were you a loner? Were you a geek? Were you a nerd?
HB: I was one of those girls that was in between. I had a really great friendship group, and we were those ones that just kind of floated around. We weren’t popular, but we weren’t geeky, I suppose. We were just those ones that spoke to everyone and got along with everyone. There was really no drama, we were pretty chill.
SW: Were you popular with the boys?
HB: I suppose at one stage I was popular with the boys. Yeah, but then I got a boyfriend quite young and that all stopped.
SW: Do they have a prom, you know, like they do in America where you go to the dance and the whole thing?
HB: Yeah. We call it a debutante. It’s kind of like a prom, it’s similar.
SW: Did you go to yours?
HB: I did.
SW: Was it everything you expected it to be?
HB: Yeah. I mean, I didn’t have high expectations. It was a really great night. At that time, I did have my boyfriend and we were in an unhealthy relationship, so it didn’t pan out exactly how I had hoped it to be. But in terms of the actual night, yeah, it all went straightforward. It was pretty good.
SW: Did you do any modeling, did that ever come up at that point in your life, like when you were high school?
HB: Yeah. I did touch on modeling when I turned eighteen. I never did it as a child, but when I turned eighteen, I did a lot of modeling. But I fell out of it quite quickly just because, for me, I found it was quite a dangerous industry in terms of body image, body weight. I also got tattoos quite young, so that really stripped me off a lot of campaigns. So yeah, I didn’t really dive deep into it.
SW: Do you remember the first time you saw an adult magazine, an adult movie, an adult anything?
TB: No, there’s not a distinct moment that I remember seeing it. No. I think I remember being younger when I would walk into the petrol stations and there would be all the covered up porno mags. And then if we went to a movie store like Blockbuster back in the day, they would have like the hidden area of the X-rated videos department. But in terms of actually watching my first porno, I don’t really recall.
SW: Either when you were modeling or when you saw an adult material, did the thought ever cross your mind that, I could do that?
HB: No. No. Not really. It was never really on my radar. It was never like, ‘Oh, this is going to be an option for me.‘ Not because I was judge-y on it. I never came from a space where I was like judging it. It never popped up for me. I think if it did pop up in my twenties, it would have been a hard no for me because I was a different person back then. I was young. I was worried about what people thought of me. I was so caught up in, you know, the impact society had had on me in terms of views and values. So, it wouldn’t have happened. When it did come into my life in my thirties, I think it was a very different story into why I said yes.
SW: After your finished high school, did you get a job at that point? Did you go to college?
HB: I went straight into a nine-to-five role after I finished school. I worked like that probably for about six years, but I was job-hopping every year. I just kept getting jobs other places, quitting it because I was over it. I just really, really hated working for other people, I couldn’t stand it. So, I just kept chopping and changing. : After I started my 9to5 and I was chopping and changing, I fell pregnant, had my kids, and I didn’t want to go back to the 9to5. I didn’t want to keep working. So I actually started network marketing, if you’re familiar with that. I started in the network marketing industry, and I was running my own business in network marketing. And I did that for about four years. And that was all done from home, all on my own terms. It was creating freedom for myself. And then we decided to travel around Australia because I was able to work my network marketing business on the road. It was there on the road where everything kind of started to fall apart. And that’s then when we met that lady that was doing OnlyFans.
SW: Had you always had the farm, too, or is that something you picked up later?
HB: Yeah, we have always lived on a farm.
We didn’t have the farm that we have now though, but we had a previous farm that we rented out while we went traveling.
SW: Is it fun for do you do a lot of growing stuff there? Or is it more about peace and quiet, being out in the country.
HB: It’s a hobby farm. We’ve got animals. We run beef cattle on our farm, so that makes a little bit of income for us. And then we’ve got chicks, dogs, cats, goats, sheep for meat. So yeah, just a few bits and pieces for hobby, really. I mean, it’s still upkeep. We train the horses. Like I say, we produce meat on our farm and things like that. So it is still a working farm, but more a hobby farm. It’s not a huge business.
SW: When you shoot content there, is that strictly pictures or you do video clips and stuff too?
HB: All of it. All of it’s done on the farm.
SW: And do you have a preference of shooting content inside, outside? Does it make a difference to you?
HB: I love shooting outside. I really do because the sun just makes everything look really great. In terms of being in Victoria, it’s really hard because it’s freezing a lot of the time. If it’s windy, it makes the video really bad. So, in terms of the technical side of things, it can be really difficult. So, we are restricted sometimes to film elsewhere, but I really enjoy filming outside.
SW: And when you shoot with other people, you said threesomes and stuff. Is that other content creators? Is that people you know?
HB: It’s strictly only other content creators. We film with them with other content creators that are building businesses within the OnlyFans industry.
SW: And how long have you been on OnlyFans now?
HB: Two years.
SW: How long did it take you to understand the business, you know, how your personality is really key to it, and all that stuff? Did that take a while? Is that something you picked up right away?
HB: I would say about three months in, I started to go viral, and that kind of just happened. And then six months after that, my viral videos well, I lost my account and my viral videos stopped. And it was then that I realized that I had to change something. I couldn’t rely on my viral videos and the influx of people just coming in and sustaining my business and the longevity of my business. That’s when I realized more of my personality and who I am is going to have a big play in building long-term relationships with my fans.
SW: When you shoot content, do you do all the editing and stuff yourself?
HB: Yes, I do all the editing. I do everything in the business, so I edit it all. But in terms of editing, I don’t do anything fancy because my fans and subscribers really like that I show up on the farm authentically in my work gear and I’m just doing my things. So in terms of editing, it’s just editing out gaps or if we drop the camera or if Hank’s speaking or whatever it is, it’s just those little gaps that we’re editing out.
SW: From a physical aspect, do you find your fans want to see more of your boobs or your butt or your feet or?
HB: They love my boobs. My boobs are definitely the selling point for me. I don’t have much of a butt. But yeah, they really do enjoy my boobs.
SW: And you mentioned long-term. Do you look at this as a long-term, five years, ten years project, are you giving yourself specific time to work this?
HB: I’m a big believer in doing what makes you happy. And especially in this industry, I think that if you’re going to force yourself to do it just for money, you’re going to get burnt out pretty quick, and the business is going to die pretty quick because it’s not authentic. So, for me, I’ve just always said, ‘I’m going to keep doing it until like I don’t love it anymore. I’m going to keep doing it until it doesn’t light me up anymore.’ At the moment, I’m absolutely loving it, and I’ve enjoyed it over the last two years. There’s always been ups and downs, but that’s normal business, but I’m really, really enjoying it, and I’ll keep doing it while I enjoy it. So, I don’t really have a timeframe on that, just whenever the time is.
SW: Earlier, when we were talking about personality; how much different are you than the person people see on OnlyFans? How much of that’s an act?
HB: It’s not an act. What it is, is the parts of me I choose to share. So, the parts of me that I choose to share are authentic. They’re absolutely real. But there’s parts for privacy reasons and security reasons, staying safe that I keep to myself. So, it’s just really picking out the parts of me that I love and that I love sharing that I share with them. So, it’s not an act. I think if it was, I’d be burnt out by now. I’d be exhausted and I wouldn’t be enjoying it. So I think as soon as you can share your authentic self and share those really cool parts of you that are true with your subscribers, it’s a really fun journey.
SW: Now that you’re a sex worker, is sex still fun to you when you don’t shoot, or is it just business now?
HB: It’s more fun, my personal life with Hank when we’re having sex. We really understand each other’s bodies now. Filming OnlyFans ‘ content has forced us to know what feels good for each other.
You know, he needs to perform, and there needs to be an end to it, and I do squirting as well. So, a lot of our fans want to see us make each other finish. So, we really understand each other’s bodies now. And filming as content creators on OnlyFans has forced us to know what turns us on, what doesn’t, what feels good, and what doesn’t. So now, our sex life outside of making content is so cool because we get to dive deeper into that and try new things that maybe we wouldn’t have tried before.
SW: Do you ever find yourself when you’re not filming subconsciously doing stuff that you would be doing when you’re filming?
HB: No, not at this stage. No. I think it’s very different when we’re filming. We’re in love.We’ve got that sexual chemistry, and you know, we turn each other on. But when we’re filming, it’s business. It really is. It’s still that business aspect. You’re in your mind of what looks good. It doesn’t matter if it feels good.So, when we have sex with each other, we’re not in that business mindset, you’re in the good stage. For me, it doesn’t come up because it’s two separate things.
SW: And for you, what makes a good scene? Is it a good performance, or is that something that’s been captured well, you know the lighting’s good and all that, or is it good sex?
HB: Speaking from my experience, in terms of subs loving it and the feedback I get from my subscribers and then buying the content, it seems to be a mixture of both. We’ve got to have good lighting, you’ve got to have good angles, and you’ve got to have you know the right areas and changing locations, changing zoomed in on one area. I mean, if we were just to do it in the dark and Hank was holding his camera and it was bouncing everywhere, it’s not nice. But also, at the end of the day, they want that intimacy there. So, when we’ve got our camera on us, there’s a fine line between you know doing what looks good but also being really emotionally connected because they love seeing good sex.
SW: Because of OnlyFans, have you opened yourself up a lot more sexually? I know you mentioned you wouldn’t do stuff you didn’t want to do before.
HB: Yeah. I don’t think it was because I didn’t want to. I’m not doing things now that I don’t want to. I always do things that I feel comfortable with and that I do want to. It’s just now I think I’m open to experimenting more where previously sex was sex and we would do it, but now it’s kind of opened up a new door for us where, ‘Well, wow, we can do this. We can do that. Why don’t we try this?’
So, I think it’s just more now understanding that it’s not just the normal go-to bed under the covers with the lights off, have sex, and go to sleep, and have it as like a chore at the end of the night after being parents, but now being like, ‘Well, this is a big part of us. We can explore and it connects us better. ‘ So just understanding that, yeah, like I’m open now to trying more things and diving into it because it’s great for us sexually, but also it’s kind of like a twofold for OnlyFans as well.
SW: Are there any specific sexual things, maybe anal sex that you’re saving for later in your career?
HB: So I do do anal on the site now, but there’s nothing at the moment where I feel like I need to implement on my page that I want to explore. I feel like we’ve done a lot. But I also feel like the things that we’ve done, we can spice it up more.
I like the beauty of having a 100-acre farm that you know we can have boy-girl sex all over the farm on different equipment, you know, all areas. So, it’s not so much about implementing new scenes, I suppose, or adding new people in or whatever it is, but really just mixing it up with locations and different things.
SW: Do you get approached to do mainstream adult work? Would you even consider it?
HB: No, I don’t get approached. No. And I wouldn’t consider it just because I’m comfortable with what I’m doing. Like what I get to do is with my husband, who I love dearly. It’s in our own house. I don’t have to go anywhere. I don’t have to turn up. I don’t have to work on anyone else’s terms. Like I’m happy not putting on makeup, riding my bike, or riding my horse or whatever, and then filming in my shed just in my horse gear. Like I’m happy doing that. I don’t want to be in a position where I need to be told how to film my porn or what to do. And it’s working really well, and I’m loving it.
SW: Do your friends know that you have an OnlyFans account? Are they cool with it? Are they not?
HB: My friends know, yeah, for sure. It’s a mixture. You know, some people say that they’re okay with it but then their actions speak otherwise. Some people have been a really great support system. They’ve been amazing. And then other people have just completely cut me off. So, it’s a real mixture.
SW: Have you found within your members that maybe you have some people who joined your OnlyFans who you used to work with when you had nine to five jobs?
HB: No, I haven’t recognized a subscriber. The beauty of it is that people can come to your page and you know they just can put a fake name and that’s all you get to know them by. You don’t know anything else. So as far as I’m aware, no one’s told me, but I have had a feeling that some people that I know have joined the site just to see what’s going on, from what I’ve heard them saying.
But no, I’ve never had an encounter with someone being like, ‘Hey, like I’m your old teacher or something.’
SW: You mentioned that you had one boyfriend in high school. Was it in high school or just school in general?
HB: A high school, yes.
SW: Was that for like all three years or four years?
HB: No, it was only a really brief period. I think it was maybe a year or so.
SW: The reason I asked is because I was just curious, a lot of the adult girls get hit up because guys started going on social media saying they banged the famous porn star before she was famous. I was wondering if anyone had said that about you?
HB: No, not at all. I mean, I have only really had two relationships in my whole life, which was that boyfriend and then I met my husband. So, I didn’t really have a big party scene or sexual scene before meeting my husband. We met when I was seventeen, so I was still you know, young. So yeah, none of that has come up for me.
SW: And you touched on it earlier, but prior to getting into business, had you had any preconceived notions about the adult entertainment industry?
HB: Not really because I didn’t really know much about it. I knew that there was porn and mainstream porn stars, but I never had a feeling against that. There was never a pro or a con for me. I just knew that porn was porn. That was it. If I had found out about OnlyFans in my early twenties, I don’t know what I would have thought because I was a different person back then. I definitely think I would have had a little bit more judgment around that. But growing up and being open and learning and growing and just going through life events, being in my thirties, when I did find out about it, I was just like, ‘That’s fucking cool. I love it!’
SW: What’s the reality of this business versus what people think it is?
HB: The reality?
SW: Yeah. Of being a big content creator on Onlyfans accounts. What do you think people think as opposed to what reality is?
HB: I think a lot of people think that it’s easy, that it’s an easy way out of life, that we’re all, you know have no brains. We don’t want to work hard, and this is just the easy way to get rich. And it’s absolutely not that way. The reality of it is that so many women join the site and so many women don’t succeed and then all their content is out there and they, unfortunately, do regret it. So, the business is so much harder than what anyone says in terms of business, working mindset, like the people you lose, the people that judge you, the hate comments you get.
It’s a lot harder.
But you know if you are willing to work hard and absolutely go for it, then it can be a big payoff. I think the people out there that are saying, ‘You know, it’s easy. You’re doing it the easy way.’ The ones that also contribute to the hate comments, so.
SW: At this point, do you feel you’ve established yourself on OnlyFans or do you think you can get bigger and bigger and so forth?
HB: I think I’m definitely growing. I’m getting bigger. I’m 0.2% at the moment. And I know that’s not the end for me. I know it’s going to keep going. And I’m excited for that. The beauty of this business is that there’s no roof. You can just keep exploding through them and keep going, which is really fun. It’s really fun for goal-setting.
SW: And is there an adult, I guess, production scene in Australia? Do they have companies that shoot movies and do all that?
TB: I have no idea. Not any big ones that I know of, but that’s not to say there isn’t.
SW: Anything you want to say to all of your fans?
TB: Oh, to all my fans. Oh, my goodness. Just thank you for the support and following along on the journey. I remember when I first started, I started from zero fans. Like I literally had zero fans. Yeah, now on my Instagram, we’ve just hit over one hundred thousand followers, which is absolutely insane. And I just love that there’s a big online community and we have so much fun. So make sure you come to my site and DM me so we can get to know each other.
SW: Honey, thank you for your time today. I really, really appreciate it.
