We had the good fortune of connecting with Kamaria McMillian and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kamaria, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I have always felt prepared and understood the sacredness of my menstrual cycle. As an adult, when I began experiencing excruciating menstrual cramps, PMS symptoms, and reoccurring BV, I sought a more holistic and organic alternative to all of my vaginal hygiene needs. I began to research and look into the different chemicals and additives that are in the mainstream marketed vaginal and sanitary hygiene products. Something that I was once so passionate and confident about, had been almost tainted by the painful experiences I was having. I switched to all organic menstrual and feminine care products in 2016 and with this change, my menstrual experiences were more and more manageable each month. This sparked the passion to educate women on the importance of using menstrual care products that are not bleached or filled with dioxins and chemicals that are known carcinogens. Moonly Organics was born from the threat of losing my love of embracing my menstrual cycle each month. We offer menstrual care products that are not only organic but are made with love and the intention to provide a divine menstrual experience for all women, without causing unnecessary harm to your celestial body.

What should our readers know about your business?
Moonly Organics Co. is revolutionizing the feminine hygiene industry by providing high-quality organic products. Our holistic approach and empowering position is taking center stage when it comes to educating women about the importance of understanding the female menstrual cycle. Unlike big-name feminine care companies, Moonly Organics has established its foundation solely on the facts about periods and taking away the stigmas often associated with the woman’s body. With organic products delivered right to your door. Moonly Organics is a fully organic menstrual hygiene collection, featuring organic vaginal washes, vaginal sprays, and vaginal scrubs, that align with the natural pH of our vaginas. Not only are our products good for you, but they could also help to decrease your cycle length, flow, and PMS symptoms. So many women are experiencing the same things that I once did. Women who choose to switch to Moonly Organics for their period and feminine care needs can expect more manageable, divine, and sacred feminine hygiene experiences. We provide women and girls around the world with top-quality menstrual hygiene alternatives that are better for us – and better for the Universe! I started Moonly Organics with a bold vision; for every woman and every girl to have access to organic feminine products. For years our ancestors and elders have suffered from womb diseases, heavy menses, and other related diseases due to many factors, including our genetics, environment, and the products we use. Today, I present a company that caters to your womb. Moonly is on a mission to change how society sees the female body by raising awareness of the materials commonly used for women’s hygiene. By creating naturally derived alternatives that provide a luxurious experience, Moonly Organics Co. intends to connect women with each phase of divine femininity.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
For a best friend visiting Atlanta, we’d have to go to Ponce City Market first! The best day to go is on a Friday! They have a rooftop playground upstairs, and a nice lounge area, which is a great time! Usually, there is an event or feature that is worth the sight. Bar Vegan ATL would be a great vibe. Great drinks and music, and vegan friendly which is a must for me! We absolutely MUST ride the Ferris wheel in downtown Atlanta at night. This night ride provides such a beautiful view of the Atlanta skyline. Let us end our weekend with a beautifully scenic hike at Stone Mountain Park on a Sunday sunrise.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Yes, I would love to recognize both of my parents for creating me, Bridgette, and Demetrius! Thanks for the love, strength, and determination that you both poured into me. Also, my business and life partner Kayonna McMillian has been one of the driving forces within the operations of this company. I love you and all you do. The development of Moonly Organics required a team of professionals and passionate individuals. I would love to thank Nicole Martinez and her team at Brandifi, LLC for the fabulous job done with our branding and design development. Thank you to Nancy Polina with The Marketable Co. who was our brand strategist and helped to develop the “Moonly” language.
