The Circuit Breaker Protocol

I remember the exact moment I snapped.

Standing in my kitchen, staring at food I didn’t need, feeling that invisible hand pushing me toward it. I had lost the weight before. Gained it back. Again.

I was tired. Not just physically—though that too. I was tired of the brain fog. Tired of waking up in another food coma. Tired of promising myself “tomorrow will be different” while knowing it wouldn’t be.

I realized I’d been living my whole life at the effect of things. Letting stress push me around. Letting cravings run the show. Letting some invisible force make my decisions while I just watched.

And something in me just said: enough.

I’m done being a victim to my own biology. I’m taking control of my own mind.

That was the start. Not a magic moment—just a quiet decision that changed everything after.

But I know how hard it is to find that clarity when you’re in the middle of it. When the craving is screaming and your willpower is shot and you just want the noise to stop.

So I made something for those moments.

It’s called The Circuit Breaker Protocol.

Five minutes. That’s it. A short audio designed to do one thing: stop the spiral before it starts.

When you feel that invisible hand pushing you toward the pantry, don’t try to white-knuckle through it. Willpower breaks.

Instead, put your headphones in and press play.

Let me talk you through it. Let me fly the plane for a few minutes while you find your footing.

We’re done being victims.
