About I AM Connected Ministries LLC
Everything We Build Is Connected to Something Greater
I AM Connected Ministries LLC is the engine behind a growing ecosystem of connected resources, information, initiatives, and ventures.
Our foundation is built upon one central truth:
Connection is Everything, and Everything is Connected in Love.
We believe business can do more than generate revenue.
Business can protect families.
Create opportunities.
Build ownership.
Strengthen communities.
Develop people.
Preserve stories.
And create legacies that extend far beyond a single generation.
That’s why I AM Connected Ministries LLC exists: to build, manage, and connect resources that create meaningful value while contributing to a larger legacy.
More Than a Company. A Connected Ecosystem.
Most businesses are built as separate entities pursuing separate goals.
We’re building something different.
I AM Connected Ministries LLC serves as the central management company connecting families that share a common philosophy.
Each connection has its own purpose, products, services, and identity.
But they are connected by a bigger vision:
Use this business as a vehicle to create value today while building something capable of continuing tomorrow.
Our role is to provide strategic direction, management, shared resources, operational support, and long-term vision across the resources within our ecosystem.
The Vision Behind the Connection
I AM Connected Ministries LLC was founded based on an idea by Taquee Hicks, a U.S. Navy veteran, entrepreneur, author, and legacy advocate.
The vision grew from a lifetime of experiences involving family, entrepreneurship, adversity, rebuilding, service, and the realization that nearly everything meaningful in life depends upon connection.
Families need connection.
Businesses need connection.
Capital needs connection to opportunity.
Ideas need connection to execution.
People need connection to resources.
And one generation needs connection to the next.
The same principle applies to business ownership.
Rather than allowing individual intellectual property, resources, relationships, and opportunities to exist independently, I AM Connected Ministries LLC was designed to bring them beneath a larger strategic structure.
One vision. Multiple strategies. Connected purpose.
What We Do
I AM Connected Ministries LLC operates primarily as a managing and consulting company.
We develop, acquire, manage, support, and strategically connect resources and services that align with our long-term vision.
Our ecosystem may include areas such as estate planning, life insurance, education, technology, consulting, media, community development, and other opportunities that complement our mission.
While each connection operates according to its own responsibilities and purpose, I AM Connected Ministries LLC helps provide the broader strategy connecting them.
That allows us to think beyond the success of one connection.
We’re thinking about the strength of the entire ecosystem.
Our Connected Business Philosophy
We believe the strongest businesses solve real problems.
That’s why our philosophy can be summarized through two principles:
People Over Products.
A product or service should never become more important than the person it was designed to serve.
And:
Truth Over Popularity.
We would rather build something meaningful and sustainable than simply follow what is popular today.
Together, these principles influence how we evaluate opportunities, develop companies, build relationships, and think about long-term growth.
Building Purposes That Build Legacies
For us, business isn’t only about what a company earns.
It’s also about what the company makes possible.
A successful business can create employment.
It can provide financial independence.
It can create intellectual property.
It can purchase assets.
It can fund new businesses.
It can provide opportunities for other entrepreneurs.
It can support families.
And ultimately, it can become something capable of being transferred to another generation.
That’s where business and legacy become connected.
We want the people within our ecosystem to create value now while contributing to assets, knowledge, systems, relationships, and opportunities that can continue growing over time.
Connecting the Family Legacy
Our philosophy doesn’t stop at resources and assets only.
Behind every company are people.
Behind those people are families.
And behind every family is a story.
We encourage the people we serve to think intentionally about the legacy they’re creating—not simply financially, but personally.
Your family legacy includes:
- The values you teach.
- The stories you preserve.
- The businesses and assets you build.
- The financial protection you establish.
- The knowledge you transfer.
- The relationships you nurture.
- The opportunities you create.
- The instructions you leave behind.
- And the love that connects one generation to another.
We believe wealth without connection can disappear, but wealth combined with knowledge, values, structure, and intentionality has the opportunity to become legacy.
Our Bigger Vision
Our vision is to develop I AM Connected Ministries LLC into a thriving family of connections capable of creating opportunities across multiple households while remaining connected through shared principles, resources, and purpose.
We want the connections to strengthen one another.
One relationship can create another opportunity.
One asset can help create another asset.
One successful venture can provide resources for the next.
One generation can prepare the next generation to build even further.
That’s the power of connection.
What Does “Ministries” Mean to Us?
Although Ministries is part of our company name, I AM Connected Ministries LLC is not defined as a church or religious organization.
For us, ministry represents service.
It means using what we’ve been given—our knowledge, businesses, experiences, relationships, resources, and opportunities—to create value for others.
Sometimes service happens through education.
Sometimes through entrepreneurship.
Sometimes through financial solutions.
Sometimes through housing/community.
Sometimes through technology.
Sometimes through simply connecting someone with the right person, resource, or opportunity.
Business becomes meaningful when what we build also helps someone else build.
The Legacy We’re Building
We aren’t building for one transaction.
We aren’t building for one company.
And we aren’t building only for today.
We’re building an interconnected enterprise designed to grow, evolve, acquire, create, collaborate, and continue.
Our goal is to demonstrate what becomes possible when business, family, service, and legacy become connected.
And we want other families to begin thinking the same way.
What are you building?
What do you own?
What knowledge have you accumulated?
What opportunities could you create?
What will continue after you?
And most importantly:
Are the pieces of your life and your legacy actually connected?
Build Something That Can Continue
Your legacy doesn’t begin when your life ends.
You’re building it right now.
Every business you create.
Every asset you acquire.
Every lesson you teach.
Every person you help.
Every relationship you nurture.
Every opportunity you create.
Every decision you make for the generation coming behind you.
They’re all pieces of the same story.
Connect the pieces.
Build intentionally.
Own strategically.
Serve meaningfully.
And create something worth passing forward.
