About Erika Lyremark

I’m Erika Lyremark. I confess, I know first hand what it’s like to have a life that sucks.  When I was in college, I worked as an exotic dancer.  The lure of fast money, flexible hours, and the opportunity to wear lots of wigs and neon green bikinis was too much to resist.

Fast-forward nine years. After two college degrees, I was still working in an upholstered hellhole.  Addicted to the money and the lifestyle, I was stuck. What was supposed to be a stepping stone had become a tight leash.

As I approached 30, I knew I had to do something.  I was extremely burnt out from repeating the same dances and having the same boring conversations with customers. Dancing wreaked havoc on my body, and I was forced to wear orthopedic high heels (those are the 3” kind vs. the 5” kind).

After one particularly dreadful evening where I only made $2 for a nights’ work, I ended up leaving the club crying my fake eyelashes off. I decided enough was enough! It was time to kick my own ass.

Once I made that decision a whole new world opened up for me.  In three years I went from being a college educated lap dancer to managing partner of a multi-million dollar commercial real estate firm. With my inspiration, passion, and drive restored, I decided it was time for me to help you.
