A woman quit her admin job during the pandemic to become an £120k a year camgirl - and now she employs 500 webcam models worldwide.
Emily Kathleen, 27, went from being ‘practically homeless’ to living in a four-bed house in Gloucestershire after starting up a camgirl business.
She was earning a whopping £8k a month - significantly more than the £12k-a-year she was earning as a customer advisor.
The business owner was signed-off sick from her job at a housing association after struggling from stress during the coronavirus pandemic.
Desperate for money, Emily signed up to a camgirl agency in August 2020 and found herself earning £400 on her first night - more than she used to earn in a week.
As well as stripping off her clothes, Emily provides the ‘girlfriend experience’ for her clients, which includes flirting, chatting, and building a relationship with
them.
After falling in love with the job, Emily set up her own agency, called High Society Models, in May 2021, and now has 546 models working for her.
She encourages ‘empowerment’ among her models and employs all ages, shapes, and sizes - helping women to gain 'financial freedom' through webcamming.
Emily even started a TikTok page about her agency and has racked up 12k followers.
Emily said: “Webcamming has completely turned my life around.
“I was practically homeless a few years ago about to lose my council flat.
“I can’t believe where I am now, and I absolutely love what I do - and it helps that I earn really decent money.
“It’s not for everyone I found my calling and become my own boss.
"I want try and break the stigma around the industry and show how empowering this work can be for women."
Emily was working for a housing association when the UK was hit with a lockdown in March 2020.
The key worker found the ‘pressure’ of the pandemic too much and was signed off due to stress.
Struggling to afford her rent, Emily joined a camgirl agency in August 2020 and made £400 in her first night.
She bravely quit her job to start webcamming full-time - earning up to £8k a month.
Emily said: “I have never been ill from stress in my life - it was a very difficult time.
“I had nothing to lose so I thought I’d give webcam modelling a go.
“It was scary leaving my job, but I found something I loved doing.”
Emily would log onto her laptop daily to ‘entertain’ clients from her bedroom via a live web link.
This would include everything from performing strip teases, to flirting and just chatting with them.
Her hours would vary week to week, but Emily would work between 20 to 30 hours a week webcamming.
She said: “I do strip and have fun with them if I feel comfortable.
“I provide a ‘girlfriend experience’ which is about building an online relationship with someone.
“Men are there to speak to an actual person - otherwise they could go and watch porn.
“I would chat to them, flirt and just have a laugh."
Emily found her calling in the industry and decided to branch off and start her own agency.
At the beginning of 2021 she set up High Society Models - a female-run modelling agency that offers webcamming and adult services.
She now has 546 women working at the agency including 17 international models.
Her aim is the 'break the stigma' around webcamming and offers guidance to women to and help them approach the industry safely.
Emily said: "I wanted my models to have full control over videos and outfits.
“In webcamming, nudity is preferable but not essential.
"Most important to me is that they feel comfortable and empowered by what they're doing.
"We have women of all shapes and sizes - one of our biggest earners is a size 20 girl.
"We even have couples who do webcamming together.
"I still can't believe how much I love my job and the fact I'm not living paycheque to pay cheque anymore.
"I want to help women gain confidence and live a better quality of life by finding the same financial freedom I did.
"It's completely changed my life - and I hope I can do the same for others."
