Testimonials

"Tim Eggebraaten is nothing short of amazing! His stories reach your soul and make you think about your rhythm! I have never seen my staff so engaged in a presenter before! Tim is invigorating, heartfelt, and hands down one of the best presenters I have seen. I have been in education for 13 years and feel my rhythm is pretty good, but after listening to Tim I am revisiting things to make it even better”

— Joshua Mailhot, Elementary Principal

“I was honored to have Tim Eggebraaten come and speak with my school's staff to start off this new school year. As part of our back-to-school workshops, we invited Tim to Medora, ND for a staff retreat about 2 hours from our community, since we felt our staff deserved a nice welcome back after this past year! Tim's message of "Finding Your Beat: The Rhythm of Life" resonates to EVERY workplace, especially during these challenging times caused by COVID-19. In the spring of 2020 pretty much every school district in the US shut down and the country was left to grapple with the question of "how do we continue to educate our country's kids" and school district after school district stepped up and did their very best. It was a true testament to the dedication of teachers everywhere. And Tim's message is a stark reminder that, while we work every day to do what is best for kids, we also need to remember to take care of ourselves. His message is delivered in a comforting, welcoming, and engaging style that makes most of us remember our upbringings and is intermixed with his significant musical talents formed from that same upbringing that invites all voices. His presentation is delivered to each and every one of us a person... challenging us to think about those who have impacted our lives and to act in a manner that, in the same breath, makes us engage our past while projecting forward. A challenge to make the next day better than this one. His message is about home for us as educators and, at the same time, instilling in our teachers the reminder that our core mission is truly... hope. Tim is genuine. He speaks from real-life moments that have changed him over the years: those that have brought him to his knees and also helped him stand back up and be the person he is today, willing and ready to share his experiences. Tim Eggebraaten is, far and away, the best professional development I've shared with my staff in 22 years as a school principal. Seriously... book him!”

— Steve Morben - High School Principal

“The way Tim incorporates music into the presentation is incredible. It most certainly sets him apart from so many speakers … just cannot say enough about how awesome he was!”

— Randy Willis - Minnesota Sheriffs Association

"As a person, on and off the mic, Tim has an amazing sense of humor and zest for the best things life has to offer. With a personality that completely draws you in, he shares his dynamic and musical perspective of keeping with the rhythm of life. My colleagues and I agreed that we could have listened to him all day! For a speaker that is captivating and unique, Tim is definitely your guy!”

— Stacy Knott, Renville County Wellness Committee

“Tim Eggebraaten knocked it out of the park for us at Ladies Night Out. He was both entertaining and engaging. Tim had us all laughing one minute and crying the next. As a former police chief, he has seen things that most of us can’t even imagine, yet he continues to search for the positive in each situation. Tim’s message inspired us to find balance in our own lives, by focusing on the positives and learning to appreciate the “Normans” that pop into our lives.”

— Kristyn Wicht, Johnson Memorial Health Systems, Dawson, MN 2018

"Tim is a very credible individual who inspired and brought a message of hope and resilience, along with some laughs and smiles to a group of people who have stressful and challenging roles. In a relatively short period, Tim made a connection that left the audience energized and inspired. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to others looking for an engaging, inspiring, and entertaining message.”
