Hoffman Institute
The Hoffman Process is an intensive personal development retreat designed to help individuals break free from negative behavioral patterns, emotional blocks, and limiting beliefs that stem from early life.
It’s an immersive experience that helps participants uncover and transform unconscious patterns that may be affecting their relationships, career, and overall well-being.
Both of us feel that it was equivalent to years of therapy and see our lives as distinctly B.H (before Hoffman) and A.F (after Hoffman).
The Hoffman Scholarship provides access to this otherwise pricey experience to people who are ready for change but may not be able to afford it otherwise. We feel really passionately about this kind of work being more accessible to every one.
My Start Project
My Start is a charity Aaron has taught workshops for in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya. They provide Arts education and mentorship for refugees displaced by conflict in the Horn of Africa.
The workshops enable young refugees to express themselves in a fun and dynamic way, as well as reflect upon their experiences and challenging circumstances. The exhibitions allow these stories to be shared and acts as a powerful, visual resource in the camp and UK schools.
My Start strongly believe Creative Learning is integral to all young people forging their place in the world and learning to express themselves. Art celebrates and values the individual and this is particularly important for displaced people trying to reclaim their sense of identity and purpose eroded through the refugee experience and obliterated in the abyss of war and suffering.
