Hi, I'm Anita — Miraya's mom. 🌙

I never thought that one day my own child would become my greatest teacher. When I became a mother to a beautiful baby girl, I thought I was prepared for everything. I had read the books and promised myself I would always be there for her. But what no one told me was just how much I would learn from her.

I wish I had known more before she got her first period — how to prepare, what to expect, and how to guide her through this natural but often confusing phase. As a first-time mother of a daughter, I was learning right alongside her.

I wrote this book because I wish someone had handed it to me when my daughter was younger. It's for every parent who wants to be ready, and for the daughters stepping into this new phase of life — so they can embrace it with strength, confidence, and pride.

To Miraya — because of you, I have learned more than I ever imagined. And to all the young girls reading this: you are not alone. You are strong, you are beautiful, and you are a Period Warrior.

With love,
Anita Maiwar 🌸

Why I wrote it

To turn a nervous milestone into a moment of connection, pride, and magic between girls and the grown-ups who love them.

What I believe

That every girl deserves clear, kind, shame-free information about her own body — and to feel powerful in it.
