On the very LAST episode of Stripped by SIA, I invite erotic massage parlour owners, Emily and Riley Muse of MUSE Massage Spa onto the show to speak about sensual massages. As both of them are former SWers in erotic massages, the duo were unlikely business partners having started off as colleagues and then later coming up with the idea together to open up their own massage parlour. They opened up MUSE after wanting to disrupt the massage industry in Toronto having worked in the field themselves. We discuss popular offerings, client requests and asks, and how they have seen the industry change over the years.

I had to go out with a Big Bang and have these ladies on as my last guests.

Thank you ALL who have listened to even just one episode, those who have been there from the start, every single guest, every Patreon member, every brand new baby SWer and those who have been well-seasoned in this industry... Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for listening over the past 6 years, 8 seasons and 290 episodes later...

I'm closing this chapter (of podcasting, not SW or advocacy!) of my life and looking forward to what 2026 will be bringing. Thank you to everyone who I've met this industry and hope to stay connected and see you all at other community events!
