Personal growth, business growth – it’s all there! Thank you.
What are you waiting for?
It was a great day!
The program was very inspirational and has given me a lot to think about - questions to ask myself in the weeks to come.
A lively, creative seminar filled with new concepts and wisdom.
A wonderful event of thought provoking discussions, mind expanding ideas, fellowship, great for all for a very reasonable cost!
My 1st step towards transformation
This seminar gave me the reinforcement to dare to be something different than I am today – to dare to believe in myself. Thank You!
Jan’s workshop opened my thinking to new ways I can be a force for change in the world and ways of challenging me to follow my dreams.
Thanks for the opportunity to appreciate anew the creative potential each of us has to share.
Comfort to an aching heart
NOW is all we have!
How do you fall in love with someone if you never meet? In order to hear answers / fall in love with yourself / to hear the spirit – you have to spend some quality time in silence.
Jan Phillips touches your mind and your soul.
A time to reflect, connect, laugh and be transformed.
A spiritual ROI
The energy shared @ “The Art of Original Thinking Seminar” renewed a spark in me to seek the deeper connection between all people.
“This day was a confirmation to me in my life now and very much what I needed.”
Learn to harvest your stories to empower others and changes lives.
A great transforming experience. It left me with a desire to be more creative.
I wish all of the leaders of our country could spend a day with Jan. It could help us build a better world – maybe faster.
Inspiring
I’m ready to go back to my community and get the art center I want to establish – and make it a reality!!
“Slugger” Phillips delivers a knock-out!
This is the best seminar I’ve ever attended – in content – in spirit – in my life!
I’ve got a lot of thinking to do.
Appreciation & balance in life is a great gift for all of us to possess.
Wonderful! Well organized creative, balanced between presenter & group participation, very inspiring & useful.
Life is lived in the present moment. Don’t miss it by being somewhere else.
A very inspiring and uplifting seminar.

Refreshing
Touched my heart and opened my mind to possibilities.
Opened my mind to the realization that one person can make a positive difference in the world… and I can be that person.
This was an inspiring seminar which helped me focus my passion into activity that can make a difference.
A touching and mind-expanding and heart-opening experience

Imperfect action trumps perfect inaction every time.
WOW wonderful mind / soul stretching
Everything Belongs (even though that is Richard Rohr’s book)
In a short time, among a groups of people I would not have guessed I would be comfortable with, I was opened up profoundly. Amazing. Thank you.
Internal healing
You are NOT way out there! It is so refreshing to hear such sanity and wisdom expressed so beautifully & passionately. Thank you! :-)
Time spent in discovering your inner self, your inner muse.
This is an event which must be experienced – we were challenged safely, deeply with great love. I leave with more courage optimism and joy than I could have imagined. I absolutely loved it and will carry it with me forever. Thank you so very much!
If you are looking to be stretched, to new ways of thinking, come and experience Jan’s provocative approach to original thinking
The trees, upon seeing the axe, said, “Look, one of us.”
Be a light not a judge,
A model not a critic
A wonderful way to think outside a person’s sense of security. Allows you to stretch yourself
Jan’s class validated all I’ve studied & come to know as truth. It was just what I needed to progress forward in visionary thought Leadership in our converging global world.
In appreciation,
Many blessings & thanks

“This is the 1st step of the rest of your life"
Insightful! Struck a chord! Challenges me to try more creativity!
Discovering Jan is discovering my inner desires, strengths and energy I had covered within my fears.
This was a belief-stretcher
Best hands-on activities coupled with real stories of any workshop I have ever attended.
We pay a fee to attend a workshop, but the value is in the investment of the heart. Thank you for calling out the heart.
This was an enjoyable and thought-provoking experience.
There’s someone out in the world who needs you, so live your life so they can find you.” I love this quote from Jan. It is inspiring and motivating.
The workshop exercises were wonderful in getting us in touch with our deepest feelings and expanding the idea of compassion.
This organization is what I yearn for and what is needed here in this community.
A time away to reflect on creativity and the way it can impact our lives.
Jan’s workshop created a sacred space for us to open our hearts and take risks to share our stories in an artist’s way to create a new world.
We are all enriched by the tangible loving energy in the room. Jan is an inspiration!
