When you consider turmoil often overshadows tranquility, Dr. Theresa A. Moseley stands as a ray of hope and transformation. As the founder of TAM Creating Ambassadors of Peace LLC, Dr. Moseley is a WOLMI United Nations Peace Ambassador, retired educator, US Army Veteran, International Motivational Speaker, and a 17-time best-selling author. Her remarkable journey, marked by resilience and a fervent desire to foster peace, has culminated in the annual Passion Purpose Peace Summit. This year, she elevates the event with a live awards ceremony, celebrating 100 individuals who have profoundly impacted her life and the lives of others.
A Heartfelt Beginning
Dr. Moseley’s path to becoming a global peace advocate began with a heart-wrenching experience during her tenure as a high school principal. The tragic loss of two promising students, Brandon and Israel, to violence ignited a passion within her to combat such senseless acts. Brandon, a gifted football player with dreams of the NFL, and Israel, a brilliant surrealist artist, both had their futures tragically cut short. Their lives mattered, and their loss became the catalyst for Dr. Moseley’s campaign against violence: “No More Violence: One School, One Community, One County at a Time.”
From Education to Entrepreneurship
Transitioning from the structured world of education to the dynamic realm of entrepreneurship was not without its challenges. In education, Dr. Moseley counseled students to maximize their potential academically, socially, and emotionally. As a coach, she had to adapt to helping clients understand their value and worth, often referring them to counseling first to address past traumas before crafting their blueprints for success. This shift necessitated additional training and education on leadership and coaching, which Dr. Moseley pursued through the John Maxwell Certified Team, leveraging its resources to build her brand and business.
A Unique Perspective
What sets Dr. Moseley apart in her industry is her unwavering commitment to creating world peace through individual purpose. She espouses the Ikigai philosophy, which explores the convergence of passion (what you love), mission (what the world needs), vocation, and profession. By aligning these elements with one’s gifts and sharing them with the world, Dr. Moseley believes that individuals can achieve happiness and inner peace, ultimately fostering peace in their homes and communities.
Notable Achievements
Dr. Moseley’s dedication and impact have been recognized with numerous accolades, including the Prince George’s County Outstanding Educator Award, the State of Maryland EGAT E Award, and The Joe Biden Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award. She has been honored as the Women of Heart International Queen of Peace, Rise to Greater Speaker of the Year 2023, and the recipient of the Speak Life Award 2024, among others. Her books, “Passion Purpose Peace” and “Creating Ambassadors of Peace – 16 Steps to Become an Ambassador of Peace,” further cement her legacy as a thought leader and advocate for peace.
Personal Reflections
The past year has been particularly poignant for Dr. Moseley, marked by the loss of three important individuals in her life. Her Aunt Nancy, best friend, and brother all succumbed to complications from diabetes. Their passing underscored the importance of celebrating loved ones while they are alive, inspiring Dr. Moseley to honor 100 servant leaders who have made a positive impact on her life and the lives of others. This recognition is the cornerstone of the live event at Martins Crosswinds in Greenbelt, MD, which runs concurrently with the free three-day virtual event from September 20-22, 2024.
Looking Ahead
Dr. Moseley envisions a future where she shares her message of inner peace and world peace with thousands, filling stadiums and inspiring individuals to discover their passions and live their purposes. She remains committed to coaching clients in self-discovery, passion identification, purpose development, accountability, and networking, continually expanding her reach and impact.
