It’s a challenging time for people who experience anxiety, and even people who usually don’t experience it are finding their moods are getting the better of them. Anxiety hits hard and its symptoms are unmistakable, but sometimes in the rush and confusion of uncertainty we miss those symptoms until it’s too late. When things seem to be coming undone, it’s still possible to recognize the onset of anxiety and act to prevent the worst of it. George Hofmann takes a unique approach to developing better awareness of the body and how to head off disabling angst-filled episodes. Hofmann has used these techniques to successfully overcome crippling mood swings himself and has successfully taught these techniques to countless others, who have found them beneficial in their own lives.

Paul Powers - The founder of multiple successful tech-focused enterprises, Paul is an accomplished serial entrepreneur. His earliest entrepreneurial endeavors paid his way through school from the age of 16, when he moved independently from the US to Switzerland to finish high school. This trend continued through his studies at the prestigious Ruprecht-Karls- Universität Heidelberg, where he studied law in German and passed the bar with more than twice the required points. He was recruited by one of Germany’s top law firms as their youngest employee, where he focused on complex international matters involving Fortune 500 and Dax 30 companies. He was also hired by high-ranking legal figures to assist in drafting international law for the European Union. Paul left the law firm at the age of 25 to focus on his companies, which had since grown exponentially in size and sophistication. He returned to the US as part of a major partnership deal with one of Europe’s leading e-commerce companies to develop advanced live collaboration software and e-commerce technology. In 2015, Paul developed a tech innovation firm (Zoozler LLC) with a diversified client portfolio consisting of a growing number of tech startups, which Zoozler helps in both through development and fundraising guidance. Paul spent years creating new tech development models that coincide with investment and business milestones, which has enabled him and his clients to quickly develop high-performance companies with valuations that vastly exceed industry averages, including Physna, which has developed technology to analyze 3D models far more quickly and accurately than any other technology. Paul has been featured in numerous news articles in Germany and the US highlighting his unique approach and the technologies he helped develop.
