So many have visted with us here over the years... many changes, bumps and bruises, thru it all, you have remained steadfast and supportive to us all. Some have asked, "Who are we? What do you do? What is TeamMom? Can I join? Well, let us start at the beginning...

The creation of TeamMom actually came about sadly, thru malicious circumstances, brought upon us by other's, including some ryzer's too. Trusting souls that we are, I never thought that anyone would actually steal our very concept, let alone our names we came up, right from under us! Not being educated enough to the legal aspects of copyright, trademarks and registrations, we were literally left in the dust with no grounds to stand upon. Since, I have taken every precauction, thoroughly researched all avenues and am happy to say we are the one and only TeamMom (as we know) out there!

We originally started as "The Broker Team" (way back in 2004)with just myself and my sister Michelle (one of the original founder's of TeamMom), to only have to change the name.... when we found out the we could not associate our ryze page with the company we were involved in, we simply became "The W.A.H. Team". When we (my sister and I) disolved our partnership, I began the journey of reinventing myself and my purpose for being here, but for a 3rd time. As members of my family, friends, came and went, our name, mission and purpose evolved yet to another path on our journey.

Blossoming into "The M.O.M. Team!", we extended ourselves to include friends from ryze, changed our format and began to work on a permanent foundation. This too would not last! Once again, our ideas were pulled out from under us and we were forced to take yet another detour. Undeterred, filled with sincere determination, I searched out within my own heart, whether or not this was the road that I was to placed upon and took a few weeks off to find my answers.

The holidays rolled about, with it, the promise of new tidings, greater adventures for the new year to come, so with Bible in hand, I sat the ringing of 2006 in prayer, looking for a final answer to where and what we should become! When I awoke, teary eyed, unsure, my eyes beheld an article devoted to helping build your downline with a strong team base, thoughts began to scurry about me, "Could I possibly do this?" As I pondered and ran thru all the reasons why I could or couldn't go forth with this new found vision, it suddenly dawned on me that I was not alone, that I all the support I needed to make this leap of faith.

Phone in hand, I called my mother Kathleen and shared with her all my ideas, thoughts... while visiting with her, I decided to drag my sister Michelle into the gabbing (as she was the reason why I joined ryze in the first place) bouncing all sorts of ideas about. Once we had all come to some sort of agreement, I feverishly began the complete undertaking of changing everything about the page, our mission... After many days of hearty chatting (til 1, 2 even 3am), some tears, laughter, changes, we finally came to the end of our journey!

Our sincere wish is to help everyone in whatever way we can whether it be in business by providing helpful links, resources, tools or in friendship by connecting, networking or just being there when needed!

T o bring everyone together thru compassion, support and faith, encompassing the diversities of the world around us!
E ducate, assist and guide those who may reach out to us, when in need, to the best of all our abilities!
A lways be as fair and understanding to the many various, unique and different cultures we come upon or meet along the way!
M ake sure we leave a lasting impression upon those whose journies bring them here and to those we connect with!
O pen up door's of opportunites to those seeking to better enrich their lives, their families, by achieving their goals of success!
M ost of all, be ourselves, inhibited by nothing, to stand by our own beliefs, our own creativites and stand strong admist adversity!
