“Forget golden nuggets, all of TJ's programs drip pure gold. After working with TJ and attending his events, I walked away feeling validated and empowered to keep showing up and doing my work.”

“TJ is so incredibly supportive and really knowledgeable about the inner work we need to shift from where we are to where we want to be!”

“Given the quality of experiences I've had in programs and interactions with TJ, I knew this event would be a worthy investment of my resources. On the other side of it, I am so grateful that I made this commitment.”

“TJ is passionate about helping people discover and understand their potential and his commitment to this is obvious in his meticulous planning, production, and execution of a very informative and well-received workshop event.”

“I had a hard time defining myself, but after taking TJ’s Mindfulness, Mindset, Mapping Your Story workshop, I started thinking about MY story, MY value as an artist, and what it means to me to be an artist. The workshop helped my visual understanding of how I define myself as an artist.”

“You have a gift for creating programs that help so many. You’re inspiring.”

“I came to the Sandbox feeling embarrassed and even ashamed that I hadn’t been working in my studio or attending any art related functions. Not at all like myself as a creative. Having a group where everyone could share similar struggles in a safe environment with no sharp edeges, coaching and encouragement from Nathan and TJ, and great prompts to get me thinking got the momentum to start shifting. I am back in my studio working and that has been a huge step for me.”

“[The Sandbox] was right on time and just what I needed during such a time of turbulence. It's crazy how it was called the Sandbox when at the onset of it, I literally felt heavy like I was sinking in quicksand. But, I was reminded of how to play which then turned that heaviness into feeling lighter. I was then transformed into playing in the sandbox with other great creatives rather than sinking in quicksand alone. I felt stuck but the reflections made me realize I was in a deep rest that needed to be acknowledged for it being just that without judgment. Thank you for the space! It was right on time!”

“Inspiring and very helpful in organizing thoughts and practical tools for a brand and leadership development.”
