About 5230
5230: Man in Progress is a faith-based transformation platform that helps men break generational cycles of rage, shame, isolation, and performance syndrome through what founder Larry C. Hill Sr. calls "blood transfusion theology."
The name 5230 represents 52 years of life experience distilled into a 30-day transformation pathway. Unlike traditional self-help programs that focus on behavior modification, 5230 addresses what Hill calls "contaminated blood"—the patterns, wounds, and trauma passed down for generations.
With a 70% completion rate—2.3 times the industry average—5230's unique approach involves both men and their partners in the transformation process. The program's flagship event, Suits & Shades, brings couples together on Father's Day weekend to begin their transformation journey as partners, not opponents.
Leadership
MBA Candidate | Certified Life Coach | Founder & CEO
Larry C. Hill Sr. is the Founder and CEO of 5230: Man in Progress, a men's transformation platform achieving 70% program completion rates—2.3x the industry standard. Currently serving as CIO at a tech company managing a $23M budget, Larry holds a BA in Business Administration, McKinsey Leadership Certifications, and is pursuing his MBA.
A Certified Life Coach with three years of professional practice, Larry identified a critical market gap: existing programs address behavioral symptoms but fail to address root psychological patterns ("contaminated blood"), resulting in low completion rates. 5230's blood transfusion theology framework solves this by targeting generational trauma at the source, not the symptom.

About Suits & Shades 2026
Suits & Shades is 5230's flagship Father's Day event, scheduled for June 20, 2026 in Atlanta, Georgia.
The event brings couples together for an evening of dinner, connection, and commitment. Unlike typical conferences, Suits & Shades includes separate breakout sessions—men with Larry, women with Jasmine—before bringing couples together to begin their 30-day transformation journey as partners.
The dress code (suits and sunglasses) symbolizes stepping into a new identity while protecting what's being renewed. It's designed to be both elegant and transformational.
