FOUNDED BY LEE McQUEEN, FEATURED ON:

WHY I BUILT ELITE RETREAT

I am the project.

Before 30, I was running a £32M division inside a corporate business. Then I went on to win The Apprentice and build three seven-figure businesses.

From the outside, it looked exactly how you’d expect. Successful. In control. Winning.

But behind closed doors, it felt different.

My body had slipped. My mind was constantly on. And even though I was performing… I knew I wasn’t operating at the level I was capable of. Not fully.

It’s a strange place to be.

Because on paper, everything looks right.

You’re building the business. You’re winning deals. You’re hitting numbers.

But something feels off.

You feel it in your energy. You feel it in your focus. You feel it when you get a moment to actually stop.

Like you’re running… but not in control of the pace.

And if you ignore it, it doesn’t just stay the same.

It gets worse. Energy drops. Focus slips. Standards lower.

And slowly, without realising it, you start accepting a version of yourself that you know isn’t your best.

That was the moment everything changed for me.

Not because something broke.

Because I could see exactly where it was heading if I didn’t take control.

So I made a decision.

Strip everything back. Start again. Rebuild from the ground up.

No guessing. No surface-level fixes. No motivation without structure.

I went all in.

Training before sunrise. Tracking everything. Sleep. Nutrition. Recovery. Breathwork. Cold exposure. Lifting with intent.

But more than that…I stopped looking for the answer. And became the experiment.

I tested everything. Worked with different coaches. Business, physical, performance. Invested thousands. Spent thousands of hours figuring out what actually works when life is full, pressure is high, and people are relying on you.

Not theory. Not trends. Not routines that only work when everything is quiet.

What actually holds when you’re building, leading and performing at a high level.

And that’s when everything shifted.

My body changed. My clarity sharpened. My business moved faster with less stress. I showed up better for my family.

Not just present. Focused. Leading. Alive.

And I realised something that changed everything.

This was never about aesthetics.

It was about energy. Leadership. Legacy.

Because when you lead yourself first, everything else follows.

That became the Elite Operating System.

A system built under pressure. Tested in real life. Designed for people who refuse to operate at half capacity.

Mind. Body. Business. Clarity. Execution.

All aligned.

Like I said, I am the project….

Now it’s time to step into yours

WHAT IS ELITE RETREAT

Elite Retreat isn’t something I planned on paper and hoped would work. It’s something I built, and then lived.

We brought 24 people together in a multi million pound villa in the Marbella hills. Different backgrounds, different businesses, different lives. But all with one thing in common. They knew they weren’t operating at their best.

For four days, they stepped away from everything. No noise, no constant messages, no being pulled in ten different directions. Just space. Space to think properly, space to breathe, and space to actually look at where they were and where they wanted to go.

And when you do that properly, not for an hour or a quick break, but properly, something happens.

You start seeing things clearly again. You start making decisions you’ve been putting off. You start reconnecting with a version of yourself that you know is there, but hasn’t been leading.

That’s what happened in £21m luxury in the Marbella hills.

People trained together. They sat together. They had conversations they’d been avoiding. They pushed themselves physically, and at the same time slowed everything down mentally. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, something shifted.

Not because anyone forced it. Because the environment allowed it. Because they were around the right people. Because for once, they weren’t distracted.

That’s what Elite Retreat is.

It’s stepping away from your normal world, properly. Not half in, not checking your phone every five minutes. Fully in. And doing it with people who are on the same path as you.

People who want more. People who know they’re capable of more. People who are ready to step into that next version of themselves.

That’s the Tribe.

Not a random group, not a room full of strangers. The right people, in the right place, at the right time. And when that happens, everything accelerates. You think differently, you move differently, and you make better decisions.

And when you leave, you don’t go back the same.

That’s not hype. That’s what actually happened.

So if you’re reading this and something in you is saying, “I know I’m not quite where I should be,” then you already get it.

And if you don’t, that’s fine. This isn’t for everyone.

But for the people it is for, this will be one of the best decisions you make.

THE ELITE ENVIRONMENT

One Villa. One system. Built for those ready to reset standards.

Strength & Performance

MIND &
STRATEGY

Recovery & Clarity

The environment builds you before the coaching even starts.

£30m private villa. Training areas. Coaching space. Recovery zones.

You arrive and step out of normal life. No distractions. No noise. Just you, your standards, and the version of you that’s been waiting to take back control.

And then we get to work.

Everything about this environment is there to support what we do inside it.

The sessions land harder. The conversations go deeper. The focus stays where it should be.

Every meal is prepared by private chefs. Concierge, housekeeping and seamless logistics remove everything that would normally distract you.

So you can fully commit.

To the process. To the sessions. To yourself.

That’s where the shift starts.

THE FOUR-DAY EXPERIENCE

Across four days, every session is delivered with intent. No filler. This is exactly how it unfolded.

You do not leave motivated.

You leave operating at a different level

Day 1: Grounding and Clarity

Day One is where everything starts to slow down.

You arrive carrying stress, pressure and noise from normal life. By the end of the day, that begins to drop.

You get back into your body. You start breathing properly again. You start seeing clearly.

You leave day one grounded, present and aware of what actually needs to change.

Day 2: Momentum and Execution

Day Two is where things start moving.

You wake up clearer. More focused. More present. Now there is no hiding.

This is where decisions get made.

You leave day two with clarity, direction and actions you know you need to take.

Day 3: Expansion and Perspective

Day Three is where it clicks.

You are not the same person that arrived.

You feel sharper. More certain. More in control. Now you start seeing what is actually possible.

You leave day three with confidence, energy and a completely different level of belief.

Day 4: Integration and Commitment

Day Four locks everything in.

No hype. No surface level motivation. Just clarity and decisions.

You leave day four knowing exactly what happens next and who you are operating as.
