Power. Pride. Period.
In our lives, we take on many roles - daughter, mother, entrepreneur, caregiver, and more. One experience unites us all: menstruation. We deserve to embrace every role we play with ease and confidence, even during our periods.
Why I Created Maitu by Liz
My name is Elizabeth - and before Maitu by Liz became a brand, it was first my personal truth.
For years, my period was a quiet struggle I carried alone. Synthetic pads and tampons left my body irritated, uncomfortable, and inflamed. The rashes. The itching. The burning. The constant unease. The fear of leaks. The question I never dared ask out loud: "Is this really normal?"
I endured it because I thought I had no alternative. Until my body demanded better. That moment marked the beginning of my search - not for a business idea, but for relief, dignity, and honesty with my own body. When I discovered organic menstrual care, the change was immediate. My body felt calm. Safe. Heard. That was my awakening.
Maitu means "Our Truth." Because the truth is this: periods should not hurt, harm, or humiliate us. Maitu by Liz was born from lived experience. I am not just the founder - I was the first user, the first believer, the first testimony. Every product exists because I needed it myself.
