JOSLYN JAMES in CONVERSATION with GODDESS GRACE
She doesn’t need an introduction—her presence in the adult industry is both undeniable and entirely on her own terms.
One of the adult industry’s most celebrated stars opens up about her journey from a small town to becoming a household name. We explore the delicate balance between vulnerability and control, fame and anonymity, truth and performance, as the lines between the personal and the public blur. Joslyn provides a window into the contradictions of a life lived in full view—where every moment is an act of both revelation and reinvention.

How did you first enter the adult industry?
JOSLYN JAMES
I was introduced to the adult industry when I was living in Seattle. I started working at a peep show at Deja Vu in downtown Seattle. It was fascinating to me. I’ve always admired people in the adult industry—the confidence, independence, freedom, and liberty they exude. Getting into the industry helped me let go of my own inhibitions and insecurities. Growing up in a small village, if you enjoyed sex or anything like that, you were seen as a “tart” or a “hussy,” especially as a woman. To embrace your sexuality was frowned upon. Over the years, I’ve embraced and loved how these cultural attitudes are changing, at least in some places. Seeing women gain more freedom is beautiful.
I love how you've embraced those values and made them your own. It's so empowering to see how you entered the industry and drew strength from others within it. Were there any challenges you faced when you first entered the adult industry?
