🪞Reflect + Progress ➡️

Ok, maybe not perfect, but that doesn’t mean you need to reinvent yourself.

Reflect on your strengths, note areas for growth, and ground yourself in the present. You’ve made it this far!

Join us as we look back at 2025 and forge ahead into 2026 🗓️

👀 2025 in Review

2025 is almost an entire month behind us, but let’s take a moment to recognize a few pieces of trivia from last year…

#Hashtag 🏷️

  • #milf continues to reign supreme as the most popular hashtag.

  • T or A? On SP, #ass leads with almost double the number of likes as #tits.

Intro Messages 💌

  • About 5,000 models have tried the new intro message feature.

  • Across the site, there is an overall open rate of 78% and reply rate of 18%.

Video Calls 🤳

  • Keep ‘em going—the average time on video calls increased again this year to 6.5 minutes.

  • Models spent 90,000 hours on video calls. That’s 3,750 days or 10.5 years 🤯

🏆 Recap: XBIZ, X3, + AVN

Most importantly, let’s break out the confetti cannon for all our XMA and AVN Awards winners 🎉🎉🎉 Making it to the top is no easy feat! Congratulations 👏 See the full list of winners at the end of this newsletter.

At XBIZ, X3, and AVN, we had the pleasure of connecting with several of our models face to face. Seeing you lovely people is always such a joy and gathering direct feedback is always so helpful 🙏

And in case you missed it, SextPanther won Creator Platform Company of the Year at the XBIZ Honors ceremony. As we said in our acceptance, this wouldn’t be possible without YOU and YOUR hard work 🙇 Let’s keep working together to make this the best place for creators. Job’s not done 🙌

🌅 2026: Clarity, Confidence, + Less Pressure

January can feel loud, like you’re supposed to instantly grind harder, post more, earn more. Here’s your reminder: You don’t need a reinvention… you might just need a soft reset 🤍 For models who want less stress + more stability, read on👇

🧠 Reality Check > Reinvention 

You didn’t “fall off.” You carried a lot. Start with what actually worked.

⏳ Content Pacing = Burnout Prevention

Choose a rhythm you can repeat (anchor days, sprint + float, or a two-week cycle).

📉 Numbers Are Info, Not Identity

A slow day is a low-performing session. It is not a low-value you.

🎭 Performance Rituals Help Your Nervous System

Tiny cues—e.g., music, scent, stretch, a phrase—tell your brain “we’re safe.”

🚪 Close-Out Rituals Matter 

Wash up, change lighting, hydrate, and do a one-sentence debrief to fully clock out.

✅ Try the 3-Focus Reset (30 days)

  • 1 income action 💰

  • 1 visibility action 📣

  • 1 care action 🫶

🧊 Minimum Baseline for Hard Days

Recognize small “I showed up” steps that keep momentum without self-punishment.

If you want the full pacing examples + simple pre/during/post performance rituals you can start today… Read on  👉 here.

💸 It’s Tax Time

If you are a U.S. model and had payouts totalling more than $600 in 2025, you should have received an email from “no-reply@track1099.com” with the subject line of “1099-NEC from RedEx Media LLC.”

This email includes a “Retrieve Your 1099-NEC” button, which is a unique link for you to confirm the last 4 digits of your SSN (or EIN if you have a corporation). Once entered correctly, you can download your 1099-NEC.

You can also access your 1099-NEC through the Model Dashboard (Payout Information → Tax Forms) with the last four digits of your SSN or EIN.
