If any of these sound familiar, keep reading.

You often don't know what to say in conversations—and tend to worry about what others think of you.

It's not uncommon for you to feel insecure in social situations—whether at work or in your personal life.

You have a tendency to be overly critical of yourself—which can make it hard to feel good about who you are.

The Centeredness Retreat is designed to help you master all these challenges and more through proven frameworks, practical techniques, and lasting shifts in how you see yourself.

A few words from TJ.

Portrait of TJ

Hi, I'm TJ, and I've been teaching communication, confidence, and self-esteem full-time since 2009.
‍
In that time, I've had the pleasure of teaching workshops on three continents, coached people from all over the world, and had over 650,000 enrollments in my online courses. I've also been featured in publications such as the Wall Street Journal and Cosmopolitan, made over 100 other media appearances, and published two books.

I absolutely love what I do, and it's hard for me to imagine doing anything else, for one simple reason:

I've personally experienced how transformational mastering these topics can be, and helping others do the same is the most rewarding thing I know.

Until my mid-20s, I struggled with confidence and communication myself. Though I was comfortable with close friends and family, I felt insecure and out of place in most other social and professional situations.
‍
So I decided to learn. I traveled the world, learned from world-renowned coaches and experts, and earned three university degrees along the way, including a teaching degree and a master's in education.

What I learned changed my life. Today I truly live a life I hardly dared to dream of in my 20s—both personally and professionally—and sharing the knowledge that helped me create it has become my life's work and biggest passion.

I hope you'll join me at the 2026 Centeredness retreat in Las Vegas, and let me support you in reaching your goals.

Yours,
TJ

"This isn’t the kind of event where we hype you up and tell you everything is perfect as it is, and you just need to embrace life. Every important concept in this workshop includes practical exercises and techniques that will help you create the real-world results that you want."

The retreat takes place in an incredible 5-bedroom, 3.5 bath mansion, complete with a pool and a heated hot tub, located just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip.

Each participant will have a private bedroom, and there's a fully equipped kitchen, two living rooms, and a loft lounge—in addition to all other amenities such as laundry and WiFi—all available for you to use.

The teaching sessions will primarily take place in the house, which means you can start your mornings at your own pace—whether that means to sleep in, go for a dip in the pool, or whatever else—before the day begins.

While the workshop runs March 31st through April 4th, you're welcome to arrive March 30th and stay through April 5th, in order to make your travel easier to plan.

"I learned things at this workshop that I didn't even know I needed to learn. And the fact that it was a small and intimate workshop also helped make it easy to ask questions.
TJ is a fantastically good teacher, and you can feel how much he cares about you learning what he's teaching. I definitely feel like I've gotten better at communicating.
I recommend his workshop without hesitation."

What to expect.

This is an intentionally small, curated retreat. To help everyone—including TJ himself—feel confident this is the right fit for you, TJ personally speaks with each potential participant before accepting registrations.

These conversations let TJ learn about your goals and circumstances to confirm whether the retreat aligns with your individual needs, tailor the curriculum to the group, and ensure that the participants are likely to mix comfortably.

Only after this call will you receive payment information to secure your spot.

The teaching itself combines lectures, discussions, practical exercises, and personal coaching. TJ will also be at the mansion most days after workshop hours for continued conversations and support.

Outside workshop hours, your time is yours. Relax and recharge at the mansion—alone or with other participants—or go out to explore Las Vegas. Options range from spas, museums, and fine dining to shows, tours, and nightlife.

After the retreat, you'll have 2 follow-up coaching sessions with TJ to help you retain and implement what you've learned.

"After learning from TJ it wasn't just my relationships that changed dramatically. But I now have the confidence to follow my passions. And it's been the most amazing adventure ever since.

I couldn't have done that without the confidence I got from his workshop."

Frequently Asked Questions

All attendees must be 21 years or older at the time of the event. That said, it’s rare that participants are younger than their mid-20s.

The retreat is open and welcoming to everyone, including members of the LGBTQ+ community and individuals with disabilities*. The only requirement is that participants are able to take care of their own daily needs, and that they can comfortably engage in approximately eight hours of activities per day.

*Please note: the retreat house has only one bedroom on the ground floor which will be prioritized for guests with limited mobility or difficulty using stairs. If you have any special needs, please reach out to confirm that this room is still available, and/or that we'll be able to meet any other accessibility needs you might have.

Thankfully, this can vary a great deal, which means that every member of the group gets the benefit that diverse groups bring to discussions and exercises, including but not limited to things such as novel ideas, a deeper understanding of others, and the opportunity to learn from other people’s experiences.

While the majority of participants tend to be professionals between 30 and 50 years of age, both older and younger participants have participated—to TJ’s delight and their own gain.

Yes! Las Vegas locals who don’t require accommodations at the retreat house will only pay for the workshop itself, and get a $750 discount on the total price.

Since this retreat has a very limited number of spots, we don’t have the option of offering discounts for partial attendance, and it’s highly recommended that you attend all days in order to get the most out of it.

However, if you need to arrive late or leave early, TJ will work with you to—within reason—ensure that you are prepared or caught up. If you know that this will be necessary, please let TJ know on your exploration call.

You may arrive at the mansion on March 30th at 5 pm, and check-out has to be completed by 10:30 am on April 5th.

While there will be water and light snacks available at the house, participants are expected to arrange and pay for their meals themselves.

There will be a full kitchen available, and there will be multiple excursions to nearby grocery stores. There will also be time in the evenings to go out for dinner, and you may also order food delivery to the house.

If you have a severe allergy to the point of not being able to be in the same space as a particular type of food, please let TJ know on your exploration call. We will ensure that all participants are aware that they are not allowed to bring or consume any items that might be a danger for you to be around.

TJ doesn’t do sales and is only interested in having participants on this retreat who are excited to be there because they feel confident that it’s the right place for them to be.

The call is an opportunity for you to ask any questions you want about the retreat and share your goals and circumstances with TJ, so he can confirm that this retreat is designed to help you reach those goals.

Book your call with TJ here.

While you’re encouraged to share whatever you’d like about what you’ve learned on this retreat, all participants are required to anonymize any personal information they learn about the other participants unless they have expressed consent to share it. That includes videos and images that contain other participants, as well as full names and other potentially identifying information.
