Let’s get to know one another…

Hey there! I’m Kathy Hood, Founder & CEO of Woman University.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to WomanU and I look forward to meeting you soon.

Woman U is the work of my heart.

We started in 2012 as a project of my nonprofit, Marvelous Light Empowerment Association. Over the years, WomanU has grown far beyond my expectations, and now we serve women internationally, supported by major funders who are equally passionate about women’s empowerment and growth.

I look forward to seeing YOU in my Discover U sessions.

Don’t wait, start your Woman U journey today!
