The Legend
Our Founders are like yin & yang, Sunday jazz brunch & fish fry in the backyard, bubbly socialite & self-proclaimed homebody. They are kindred spirits who met via Facebook and discovered a destiny bigger than each of them. As they bonded in the comments section on posts about wellness and beauty, they also discovered many serendipitous connections including being born the same year a couple of weeks apart, both being Leos, having the same initials (before Madonna got married) and their parents knowing each other long before they met.
Madonna and Margaret birthed and built TryBe through a series of early morning text conversations about the state of our world, the difficulty of relationships, & the challenges of personal wellness and self-care. Serving as support for one another, they began to dream of a way to spread love and encourage others to just BE.
The Chiefs

Madonna is a licensed real estate broker and owner of a successful, growing firm. She has over 13 years of experience leading and helping people find homes.
MARGARET A. BRUNSON, Ph.D
Co-FounderMargaret fell in love with people at an early age. She learned the value of community very early from her pastor father and counselor mother, who were both raised on farms in rural NC. They taught her that the human experience is about love and compassion, and we need each other in order to fulfill our life's purpose. As a trained leadership scholar and entrepreneur, Dr. Brunson has branded her lifestyle approach as #TheLoveLife™. She views herself as a luminary whose purpose is to lead people to love.
