Care Packages
Motivated Woman is committed to combating period poverty by providing care packages to female students in high schools across South Carolina. Period poverty, as defined by the National Institutes of Health, refers to the lack of access to safe and hygienic menstrual products and basic sanitation items during monthly periods. Our care packages include essential feminine hygiene products such as sanitary pads, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, deodorant, lotion, and lip balm. To support this initiative, click here.

"Voices of" Panel Discussions
Motivated Woman is dedicated to inspiring and empowering women as they navigate various health challenges. Our signature program, “Voices of…,” is a virtual panel discussion featuring women who have faced illnesses such as diabetes, infertility, mental health issues, cancer, heart disease, and obesity. These conversations are enriched by medical professionals who provide valuable insights, tips, and feedback on these and other topics.
Each series includes a "Mental Health Moment" segment, where panelists and experts delve into key mental health topics. From coping with grief and prioritizing self-care to discussing issues like imposter syndrome and anxiety disorders, the panelists share facts, personal experiences, and answer questions from attendees.
We invite you to join Motivated Woman, along with award-winning meteorologist Von Gaskin, who serves as the moderator, and our panelists for these insightful and empowering discussions.
