Sentence help

I would like your help on the below sentences. I have two questions:
1. Are both sentences written correctly?
2. Is the word (the) optional or necessary?

We hope we can always provide you with (the) inspiration and motivation to live a healthy life.

We hope we can always give you (the) inspiration and motivation to live a healthy life.

  • Your choice.

I see. So 'the' is optional and correct in both of these:

We hope we can provide you with (the) inapiration and motivation.

We hope we can provide you with (the) inapiration and motivation to live a healthy life.
