The protocol · for people who can't slow down

More push, less burnout

A doctor's one page for people who can't slow down. Tell me where to send it.


Everything that works, on one page

The three ideas.

- You’re not broken, you’re depleted.
- The more you recover, the more you can push
- Unless you measure it, you're flying blind.

Eat. Sleep. Move.

The negotiable side, in steps you can start this week

Your day, and what each piece moves

Seven habits, and the number each one changes. Then the three things to measure before you change anything else: your watch, your blood, your cortisol rhythm.

The doctor for people who can’t slow down

For more than a decade I've worked with founders, executives and investors from Canada to Dubai to Hong Kong, all of it run remotely from a small town on the Portuguese coast.

I built Prime for people who do not want to separate health from ambition.

Nobody I work with is asked to stop. We measure what's draining them, and rebuild the capacity so they don't break.

The protocol is what works for most people most of the time.

What’s draining you specifically is a question for data, not a slide.

That’s what the Audit is: four weeks, precision medicine testing and a full blood panel, one session with me, a written plan. €1,750, and it counts in full towards anything you do with me afterwards.
