My name is Jessica Yip, and I serve as Program Director of the organization founded by Katherine Woodward Thomas. For the past five years, I have had the privilege of working closely alongside Katherine and witnessing firsthand the extraordinary impact her work has had on people around the world.

On April 27, 2026, after a courageous battle with ovarian cancer, we lost Katherine—beloved teacher, author, visionary, and friend.

In the weeks and months since her passing, we have been deeply moved by the outpouring of love from people whose lives were transformed by her work. Again and again, we have heard the same question:

"How can I help?"

This fundraiser was created in response to those requests.

For those who may be discovering Katherine's work for the first time, Katherine Woodward Thomas was the New York Times bestselling author of Calling in "The One" and Conscious Uncoupling, two groundbreaking books that have helped hundreds of thousands of people transform their relationships and their lives.

Earlier this year, she released What's TRUE About YOU: 7 Steps to Move Beyond Your Painful Past and Manifest Your Brightest Future, a book she often described as the culmination of her life's work and her vision for creating a positive, possible future for us all.

At the heart of that vision is a simple but powerful belief:

The future is not something that happens to us. It is something we create together.

✨ A MESSAGE FROM KATHERINE ✨

On January 27, 2026, Katherine shared the message below at the launch of What's TRUE About YOU.

As we navigate this next chapter, we find ourselves returning to these words again and again.

We invite you to take a moment to hear directly from Katherine.

In the wake of Katherine's passing, we heard you loud and clear:

This work must continue.

What Katherine created has touched hundreds of thousands of lives, and it deserves the opportunity to touch hundreds of thousands more.

Her passing closed one chapter and opened a threshold into something new.

The team, the coaches, and the community we've built together are inviting you to step through that threshold with us.

We now have the opportunity to build something that can carry this work further than Katherine could carry it alone.

A future where people can easily find certified coaches, transformational resources, events, and community.

A future where coaches are supported and empowered to share these teachings with the people who need them most.

A future where Katherine's work continues to reach new lives while remaining available for generations to come.

✨ HOW YOUR DONATION HELPS ✨

Your donation helps support:

• Preserving Katherine's teachings and body of work

• Expanding opportunities for people to learn, grow, and engage with these transformational teachings through courses, coaching, and community

• Building the foundation needed to ensure this work remains accessible and impactful for generations to come

Every contribution becomes part of that future.

There is no small act of devotion here.

✨ A NOTE ABOUT YOUR CONTRIBUTION ✨

We want to be clear that contributions to this fundraiser are donations, not investments.

Funds raised will help preserve and steward Katherine's teachings, support our community, expand access to transformational resources, and strengthen the foundation needed to carry this work forward for future generations.

As Katherine reminded us at the launch of What's TRUE About YOU, just months before her passing:

"This is ours to do now."

With love, gratitude, and commitment,

Jessica Yip
