Welcome to the Pleasure Girls Podcast, I’m Citra. I wrote and published my book, Pleasure Girls, in 2018. Writing through a journey of challenging yet true story of my womanhood. Diving into the real issues which might be difficult to bear, yet it has given me a chance to learn about who matters most and that is myself. I will proudly say that it has given me some of the greatest pleasures of my life. I want this to be a safe and inclusive also empowering space where you can admit your vulnerability and unpack your baggage. You create your own pleasures and only then you can become whole. I am a pleasure girl and here is my story.
