Caitlin, 32, is a director and writer at the female-owned pornography studio Afterglow.
The star recently spoke out about what it's like on the podcast.
Caitlin said: "The content is pretty intense, but it runs just like any other film set.
"The sets tend to be really inclusive. There's a lot of women.

"In fact, I think there are more female directors in pornography than there are in mainstream film and television."
She added: "As an actor, your job is to come in... You have control over such a small portion of this massive enterprise.
"And when you're the director, you are judge, jury and executioner."
Caitlin has since produced a number of films since working at Afterglow, including Eau de P***y and U Up?

The star also explained what inspired her to write and direct Eau de P***y.
"It's as if they're written by an algorithm on another planet.
"But they're always so sexy and it always feels like sex is about to happen - everyone's sniffing each other's necks and licking each other's wrists.
"So I kind of came up with the concept of a perfume commercial that then becomes a lesbian threesome," Caitlin said.
The soap star shot to fame in 2002 when she took on the role of Frankie in The Sleepover Club.
In 2005 she began playing Rachel in Neighbours, but left in 2009.
She's gone on to star in other TV shows such as Please Like Me, For the People and Class of '07.
Caitlin has also appeared in films All Cheerleaders Die, Lust for Love and Smile.
