What if you could preserve your family's legacy while honoring the powerful women who shaped history? Join me, Carmen Cauthen, as I share my ambitious vision for 2025, where we celebrate the influential Black women of Raleigh, North Carolina, through extraordinary initiatives like the "Woman of Substance, Strong and Beautiful Dinner Event."

This episode is a heartfelt tribute to these remarkable individuals, including my mother, and introduces my upcoming book projects and classes on creating family histories through written memories. Together, we'll explore the stories of the Black community that built Raleigh, delve into a personal connection with WWII veteran Millie Dunn Vesey of the 6888th Battalion, and embark on a journey from the legislature to preserve history through storytelling.

Forging strong relationships and a supportive network is key to embracing the future with optimism and gratitude. Whether you're envisioning a new invention, launching a business, or nurturing your family, personal growth stems from being present, open, and connected. As we anticipate the possibilities of 2025, let’s reflect on our shared aspirations, break free from the mundane, and ensure our stories are told for generations to come. Tune in to Quiet, No More, and let's navigate this journey together, leaving no one behind as we honor the past and build a brighter future.
