I have watched Tuesday and Tim’s work evolve for over 15 years and am continually touched by how timely, practical, innovative, grounded and transformative it is. They’re both incredibly gifted and also so human. Their voices - and the way that they unleash collective voices - seems like the ripe medicine for our times.
— Robin Athey, Leadership & Somatic Coach
Tuesday and Tim not only have a vision of equity and inclusion in systems, but tools that teams and communities can apply immediately. Their models of co-design are all the more relevant in the context of racial and economic justice, climate change, and holding those in power accountable.

— Jenny Hegland, Facilitator, Community Engagement & Leadership Evolution
I’ve been following Tuesday and Tim over the last five years and they bring not only their experiences, but what they are wrestling with as well. They bring a ‘we can figure this out together’ environment to each interaction. Their journey has informed my thinking within my practice and influenced how I ‘show up’ for those I choose to serve and contribute.
— Bernadette Johnson, Leadership Alchemist, Innovative Strategist & Collaboration Catalyst
Systems change starts inside. Tim and Tuesday are willing to share their internal processes in a way that demonstrates generosity and courage. I’ve learned about being ok with not knowing - which is very important when we are looking for new ways to be and to work.
— Erika Rolston, Project Lead
Tuesday and Tim are amazing change leaders - singular at cracking open complex systems, ideas, mindsets, beliefs - and highlighting ways to be inclusive, and ways to design programs with that inclusivity top of mind. So many systems need foundational change, not surface look/feel upgrades. Many organizations have been caught in old question paradigms. Tim and Tuesday’s online programs helped our team find questions we needed to ask which in turn lead us to pivot and develop opportunities for equity and fairness, collaboration, and improved outcomes for our clients through responsive programming.
