What it reported doing in 2025
TCWI continued to re-organize. TCWI Headquarters has relocate to Nha Trang City, South Vietnam to slash overhead cost, cut spending, and serve an underserved population. However, this international move has been costly with expenses leveling out in 2025 and 2026. TCWI is Privately Funded to bring immediate services to the public. TCWI continues its research by piloting new Nutritional Programs based on its Time Restricted Eating Every day, which is called (TREE). This program is designed to change a persons Gut Microbiome within 90 days and also features a significate amount of supplements, minerals, compounds, and fresh fruits and vegetables. The Gut Microbiome is responsible for 95% of all illnesses and likewise changes the bodys DNA and Gene Production. Our TREE program changes the Gut Microbiome. This is a game changer in the arena of personal health and longevity. Our approach improves overall health and cognitive function and lowers overall Stress with the integration of our TCWI meditation program. There is a growing interest in the TREE program among the South Vietnamese population and several weeks of testing was conducted in Nha Trang City (between 2022 2024) to determine its compatibility with traditional Vietnamese cultural foods. The Vietnamese culture relies heavily on foods which contain harmful amounts of Lectins. Lectins pose a significant health risk to the human body by compromising the Gut Microbiome. TCWI continues to measure the local interest in its beginner Meditation and TREE. TCWI has invested in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and several language translation technologies to help communicate meditation instructions in real-time from English into Vietnamese. TCWI is looking to a bright future as it moves from from Washington DC to Nha Trang, South Vietnam. This is our conclusion after conducting several workshops (expanded over 4 months and several weekends) to audiences in the National Capital Region. However, it appears that these audiences have relocated to being accessed by social media platforms life Zoom Workplace Groups, Facebook Groups, Linked-in Groups, Google Workspace Groups, and Instagram. TCWI continues to rely heavily on AI technology to translate our self-development courses and meditation scripts into 126 multiple languages. TCWI continues to invest in Microsoft Office Products, GoDaddy website applications, Squarespace website applications. TCWI has found a growing value for its self-development platform in South Vietnam, which has a rapidly growing middle class that is open to dynamic self-development. TCWI is piloting a dynamic self-development Life-Coaching curriculum that was launched in Panama Central America and Australia. It will be launched later in 2024 in South Vietnam.
