He Left His Career to Give Women What They're Starving For
Manage episode 523045865 series 3508706
"You can rent. You can't buy." That's George Goulburn's mantra and it's the key to understanding one of the most emotionally complex professions in the world.
George is a male paid companion in Australia. Most of his clients are women 45-80 who haven't experienced intimacy in years. Some have been in sexless marriages for 10+ years. Others are widows who thought desire was behind them.
He says, "The misconception is that it's just about physical intimacy. It absolutely is not." But George has a problem: He's TOO good. "You've set the bar too high," clients tell him. "No one else will be able to step up to your level." When you provide genuine intimacy—when you make women feel truly seen and desired—they fall in love. Easily. So how does George maintain boundaries while giving someone the experience of their life? "That can be heartbreaking," George admits. "It can be really tough." What these ladies are paying for is feeling seen, desired, and safe—without complications.
