Carlotta Ungaro
Executive Director (2011-2015) — Morrisville Chamber of Commerce

“Empowered Ideas designed a logo for our new East Meets West Festival for the Town of Morrisville, and it was exactly what we were looking for. This new festival will highlight a variety of cultures and would be a difficult concept to capture in one graphic design, but the Empowered Ideas Team did just that.”

Dr. Karen Mishra
Co-Founder — Trust Is Everything

“We needed a website to launch our new book and Empowered Ideas took our old blog and moved it from wordpress.com and transformed it into a fresh, new and professional looking website. James and Virginia were easy to work with — they listened to our needs, incorporated what we needed (and more) into our new site, and the transition has been seamless — we are so pleased with the results.”

Members of the Fuquay Coworking and the Empowered Ideas Team, were proud to be the marketing, communications, and logistics agency for the 2018 North Carolina Coalition Summit in Raleigh, NC.

Those in attendance discussed and shared their thoughts on prescription drug misuse and prevention methods. Throughout the two days, members and leaders had the opportunity to interact with others in the coalition, attend multiple breakout sessions, and listen to keynote speakers; one of which was Kevin Hines. Hines was only 1 of 36 people who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge and survived. He spreads the message of living a healthy mental lifestyle, all around the world.
