Raised by her podcast

Weddings, NAACP Freedom Awards & Halloween Traditions | Raised By Her


Listen Later

In this episode of Raised By Her, we catch up after a whirlwind week — from a breathtaking family wedding in Chattanooga’s Lookout Mountain to receiving a Social Justice award at the NAACP Freedom Awards.

They share what made the wedding truly special (hint: thoughtful details, live music, and fireworks), reflect on Ed Gordon’s powerful keynote about activism and accountability, and dig into the question: What happens after the march?

From there, the conversation flows into classic Raised By Her territory — family traditions, Halloween memories, fears that follow us into adulthood (yes, spiders), and how therapy and self-awareness help us break cycles we didn’t create.

It’s equal parts laughter, reflection, and real talk — the kind of mother-daughter conversation that reminds you why generational dialogue matters.

In This Episode:

  • The beauty (and logistics) of an outdoor wedding done right
  • Lessons from the NAACP Freedom Awards and Ed Gordon’s keynote
  • The difference between marching and movement
  • Systemic bias and the importance of speaking up
  • Halloween nostalgia, family memories, and the joy of community
  • Facing fears, finding therapy, and growing through self-awareness
  • Why shows like This Is Us still matter in an AI world

Listen If You Love: Family conversations, civic engagement, social justice, culture, therapy talk, and the kind of storytelling that feels like home.
