Our Story

Empowering Women to Unleash Their Purpose | Mental Wellness & Wealth | Sisterhood for Healing & Success

It is incredible how one small idea can grow into something truly special. We started with an idea of bringing like-minded women together to love, celebrate, support, encourage, and develop friendships. The first group of women began meeting once a month to be brilliant together back in 2009 in California. This monthly event was called No Boys Allowed (N.B.A.).  Who knew it would birth into an entire movement to unite God's precious daughters?

 

Since its founding in 2016, WOPU has been proud to witness the impact of its support, helping women step into their purpose with confidence and a strong sisterhood behind them. This empowerment has benefitted like-minded women initiatives throughout California and Texas communities. .

 Vision Statement

WOPU envisions a world where women of color embrace their God-given purpose, experience mental wellness, and walk boldly in their identity with confidence, clarity, and community. Through empowerment, sisterhood, and transformative resources, we strive to break generational cycles, foster self-alignment, and cultivate a legacy of healed, purpose-driven women who thrive mentally, spiritually, and professionally.​

Our Purpose

WOPU is a sisterhood committed to guiding women of color from feeling stuck to living in their divine purpose. Through a holistic focus on mental wellness, we empower women to achieve mental wealth—a life enriched with self-worth, spiritual and self-alignment, peace of mind, purpose, professional excellence, physical health, financial stability, and balance. We provide a safe space for restoration, resilience, and leadership, ensuring every woman finds her strength, embraces her journey, and uplifts others along the way.
