Kita started writing 15 years ago and published her first children’s book “You’re Special Wherever You Are” at the end of 2009. (The book was honored as a finalist in the 6th Annual U.S. Indie National Excellence Awards in the Children’s Inspirational/Motivational category in June 2012). Having already begun her research into the subject of happiness, Kita co-authored “Tipping Point to Happiness” in 2010. As a follow up to the book’s release, Kita undertook a U.S. radio campaign and earned the title of “happiness expert” along the way. Subsequently, Kita was identified as one of the top 50 authors on www.TheAuthorsShow.com (2012-13). Presently Kita is an in-house happiness expert on Jim Blasingame’s smallbusinessadvocate.com; contributes to Parenting Times (Ottawa); is published online as well as has been a contributing writer for Status Magazine, WORKING moms Africa, and jenningswire.com.

In previous years, Kita presented three international online telesummits on the topics of “Happiness for Parents Formula” “From Guilt to Gratitude” and “Happiness and Success” as well as hosted BlogTalkRadio’s “A Kind Voice on Big Ideas and Philosophy” giving her the opportunity to interview over 50 experts in the areas of happiness, parenting, positive psychology, education, health and well-being. Three years ago Kita completed outreach interviews with U.S. and Canadian educators, administrators, healthcare professionals, and parents on psycho-social needs in the pediatric cancer sector thanks to her affiliation with the Max Cure Foundation in New Jersey. Her article “Developing Successful and Happy Students” was published in in the Fifth Annual Professional Journal of The New York Academy of Public Education in May, 2016. It is her objective to teach the “how to” of happiness in these sectors as well as in corporate settings. Out of all this activity has also grown the Happiness Road Tour initiative: www.happinessroadtour.com
