Since retirement from Georgia Power of Southern Company in 2013, June Wood found her life’s purpose to use her God-given passion, skills, and abilities to encourage, inspire, and mentor women from all walks of life especially single mothers & working women through the non-profit established as the Virtuous Women Life Academy.
 

Wood has some personal experiences and have witnessed many of the challenges that women face in family, personal and professional situations.   Many women are challenged with depression, low self esteem, overcoming divorce and are stressed to the max. They want a better life for themselves and their children. They are overwhelmed and need encouragement, mentoring and help to move forward towards their purpose driven lives.
 

Since 2014, Wood has provided outreach to women by offering inspirational support, referring them to counseling & transitional housing, personal & career assessments and coaching for career preparation/placements & entrepreneurship, parenting, higher education, financial planning and other life skills.
