Our Founder Bio
Kit Maloney
For over twenty years Kit Maloney has been an activist, academic, and entrepreneur committed to channeling her passion for gender equity into a celebration of women and yoni bodied folks embodied health and healing. She’s earned a Masters degree in Gender and Social Policy from the London School of Economics and has been featured widely in the media, including Glamour, Self, and Bustle.
She is also the founder of O’actually & The Pleasure Pledge, two ventures honoring female sexual pleasure (and orgasms!) for safety, healing, and empowerment. Marie Claire named Kit an "Amazing Woman" for her work celebrating women's sexuality.
Founder Story: Skeptic to CEO
Kit's certainly no newbie to talking about taboo, exploring alternative healing modalities, and championing yoni bodied wisdom. And yet...
Even for Kit, upon first hearing about yoni steaming she herself was a bit eye rolley about the whole thing.
As Kit is known to say, Patriarchy’s grasp is strong! So we must stay open, curious, and listen to each other and our bodies inner knowing.
Knowing that many things that initially seem weird quickly become game changers, Kit connected to her boundless curiosity and booked a session with a trained and trusted vaginal steam practitioner to check it out for herself.
Kit's first yoni steam was transformative. The gentle yet potent power of that initial yoni steam unlocked a connection to the Divine Feminine she'd been seeking for years. Then, after three yoni steams, Kit realized her PMS of menstrual cramps and lower back were simply gone.
She was officially hooked on yoni steaming. Known for her relentless curiosity, unshakable commitment to women's safety and empowerment, and infectious laugh, Kit set out to learn everything she possibly could about vaginal steaming.
Kit fervently began her studies of vaginal steaming's global history, yoni steam protocols for addressing a wide variety of ailments, and the early yet wildly compelling science coming out to prove what women have known for thousands of years: yoni steaming is a medicine that works.
She embarked on a certification course to become a Vaginal Steam Practitioner and transitioned fully from being a skeptic to trained specialist.
Then Kit realized, without easy access to the quality products and expert guidance needed for safe and easy vaginal steaming, the practice would struggle to reach yonis far and wide. So with her unique blend of feminism, creativity, and determination, Kit set off to create a venture to spread the love and healing.
Thus Kitara was born!
