The Personal Mastery Retreat for Executive Excellence

A Breakthrough Retreat for Leaders Ready to Optimize Performance and Future-Proof Their Influence.

In today’s high-stakes environment, where leadership decisions carry exponential impact and the demand for clarity under pressure has never been greater, strategic excellence alone is no longer sufficient. Exceptional leaders understand that inner command—of mind, body, and emotion—is the ultimate performance edge.

Recognizing this, conscious performance expert Tim van der Vliet and LeaderMakers founder Peter Jansen have created a highly curated retreat for those leading at the top. This experience is crafted for individuals responsible for vision, velocity, and legacy—those who know that resilience, emotional intelligence, and physiological precision are no longer optional, but foundational.

Held in an exclusive setting, this immersive experience integrates rigorously tested somatic and cognitive tools into real-world leadership performance. It is not theoretical. It is transformational—engineered to enhance adaptability, elevate decision-making, and fortify the internal systems that carry the weight of sustained influence.
