MPBP, Inc. invests in women and aspires to provide opportunities for them to engage, communicate, and build relationships with other women to be able to optimize their own personal and professional development in order to give back to their families and communities.

DON’T FORGET ABOUT YOU

Women for centuries have put everything and everyone before their own needs and dreams, and only a few know the sacrifices mothers of professional athletes make for their children to reach the pinnacle of their pro career.  Ideally, we all should practice self-care in order to best take care of others, but the reality is women are nurturers by nature, leaving little to take care of themselves. "Don’t Forget About You” is a holistic approach to women’s health that considers the mental, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, physical, and social well-being of women, which often is connected to lifestyle choices as well as family and work stressors. The goal of “Don’t Forget About You” is to empower women by providing information, resources, education, and mentoring opportunities that improve personal habits, invoke lifestyle changes, build leadership skills, and reduce stress and anxiety. Topics include heart health (#1 killer of women), breast cancer awareness, physical fitness, entrepreneurism, financial literacy, domestic abuse, stress management, and depression & mental health.

 

MPBP, Inc. STUDENT-ATHLETE HEART SCREENINGS

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCD), the #1 killer of student-athletes, is not detected through regular student-athlete pre-participation physicals, and requires a specific type of heart screening. Moms often refer to their children as “their heart”, and MPBP, Inc. is dedicated to hosting heart screenings and donating AEDs to area schools and recreation centers to decrease deaths in student-athletes from sudden cardiac arrest as well as raise awareness of HCD throughout the country and Canada.
