WHO IS SHE?
Tam G Bryant
Tamara Goshay-Bryant is the Founder & CEO of The TIP Writer, a consumer advocacy organization dedicated to protecting, empowering, and educating the public. Her work centers on scam prevention, consumer rights, identity protection, and financial recovery—helping everyday people navigate systems that often feel overwhelming or unjust.
Tamara’s advocacy journey began after she personally experienced workplace bullying and discrimination. What was meant to break her instead revealed a powerful gift: an ability to confront unfair practices, speak truth to power, and stand up for individuals who had been overlooked, mistreated, or dismissed. Through that experience, she discovered her voice—and her mission.
For over a decade, Tamara has assisted individuals and organizations with:
-
Recovering lost or stolen funds
-
Holding corporations and institutions accountable
-
Negotiating major purchases and financial decisions
-
Understanding consumer protection
-
Navigating complex documentation disputes
-
Educating vulnerable populations about scams and predatory behavior
Her straightforward, no-nonsense approach has restored money, confidence, and peace of mind to countless consumers.
"Don’t get scammed IN your home! Don’t get scammed OUT of your home! Knowledge is key!"
THE ORGANIZATION
The TIP Writer exists to teach, inform, and protect. Through workshops, consultations, classes, and digital education, Tamara equips consumers with the tools they need to recognize scams, protect their identity, and avoid financial traps. Her mission is simple: empower people with knowledge before they become victims.
Your Advocate (Nonprofit Division)
Tamara is also the founder of Your Advocate, a registered Illinois nonprofit focused on supporting and educating senior citizens, one of the most frequently targeted groups for financial scams. Through community partnerships, training programs, and direct assistance, Your Advocate provides seniors with practical protection strategies, awareness training, and hands-on help during financial vulnerabilities.
Both entities reflect her deep commitment to justice, education, and community empowerment.
