The CIA'S $20 Million Mistake Reveals Why You're Failing With Women
You're Closer Than You Think To Natural Dating Confidence – Once You Address These 5 Hidden Obstacles
In the 1960s, the CIA thought they had cracked the code to espionage.
They spent $20 million implanting a sophisticated microphone inside a cat as part of the real-life Acoustic Kitty project . Years of training. Countless hours of preparation. The most advanced technology of its time.
And on its first mission?
The cat wandered into traffic and got flattened by a taxi in less than five minutes.
Intelligence agencies later confirmed that while the cat had been trained to eavesdrop on conversations, the project was ultimately scrapped after its failure.
That's what happens when you overcomplicate things.
And if you're like most men, you're making the exact same mistake in your dating life.
You've spent years collecting tactics, memorizing conversation starters, and overthinking every interaction—essentially implanting a "microphone" in your brain that was supposed to help you succeed.
But just like the CIA's cat, your over-engineered approach is getting flattened the moment it meets reality.
IF YOU'VE BEEN STUCK IN YOUR DATING LIFE AND DON'T KNOW WHY...
YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET THE FEEDBACK YOU'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR.
This is for you if you've tried everything - watched YouTube videos, read dating books, practiced conversation starters, worked on your appearance - and still feel awkward and disconnected around women.
I'm going to reveal something I've taught men around the world for years - the myths regarding dating confidence and the Overthinking Trap.
You'll discover why your interactions may look normal on the surface, yet the connection never happens.
Or if you've reached the point where you can start conversations, you'll learn why even when you say "all the right things," you still don't create attraction.
THERE'S A REASON YOU STILL FEEL DISCONNECTED. AND THERE'S A SOLUTION.
- PROBLEM #1 -
THE MENTAL PARALYSIS LOOP
In every interaction, your brain has a natural confidence pathway. For attraction to work, your authentic self needs to connect with the woman across from you. When this pathway is clear - all flows naturally.
IF SOMETHING IS BLOCKING THIS PATHWAY, THEN IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT LINES OR TECHNIQUES YOU'VE MEMORIZED...
The reason your conversations seem to go "well enough" but lead nowhere is because there isn't a problem with what you're saying - the problem is that you're trapped in your head, overthinking every response.
Women sense this disconnect instantly, even when they can't name it.
Unfortunately, that's where most dating advice starts - giving you more things to think about.
- PROBLEM #2 -
THE VULNERABILITY BARRIER
There's surface-level interaction and there's genuine connection. Most men are stuck in surface-level mode - discussing safe topics, asking predictable questions.
Why is this such an issue? To create real attraction, you need to cross into authentic vulnerability.
The problem is: this transition requires dropping your guard, which feels terrifying when you're trapped in self-judgment and fear of rejection.
The point?
If you're not crossing this barrier, you'll be having "nice" conversations that seem normal, but you'll remain invisible to women.
- PROBLEM #3 -
THE MASCULINE IDENTITY CONFLICT
Look at this dynamic - you've got social pressure telling you to be the "alpha" down on one end.
But the place I really want your attention is right in the center of your experience.
Something called authentic presence. That's the control tower.
That's what women actually respond to, what creates magnetism, and what makes interactions flow. What you'll see is that...
WHEN TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BY MEMORIZING MORE TECHNIQUES...BUT YOU HAVE A CONFLICT IN YOUR AUTHENTIC PRESENCE, THEN YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET BETTER.
This was my client Louis's issue. He had unexplainable awkwardness all of a sudden after a conversation would start.
Then anxiety, mental blanks, self-criticism, and more. But after spending thousands on dating products, his results stayed the same.
Where he went wrong: He spent years trying to fix his conversation skills, only to find it was really the "control tower" to blame - his disconnection from authentic presence.
- PROBLEM #4 -
THE SELF-CRITICISM SPIRAL
Every time you interact with a woman, your internal critic is analyzing, judging, and usually condemning your performance.
This constant barrage of negative self-talk creates a downward spiral where each interaction feels worse than the last.
You begin to dread social situations, creating a self-fulfilling prophecy of awkwardness and rejection.
This spiral doesn't just affect your dating life - it undermines your entire sense of self-worth.
- PROBLEM #5 -
THE EMBODIMENT DISCONNECTION
While you're trapped in overthinking, something critical is happening: you're completely disconnected from your body.
True confidence is embodied - it's felt physically as relaxed presence, natural movement, and comfortable eye contact.
When you're stuck in your head, women immediately sense this physical disconnect.
No amount of clever words can overcome the impression created by a man who isn't fully present in his own body.
THE MODEL BRUNCH WORKSHOP SOLVES ALL THESE CORE PROBLEMS WITH A UNIQUE APPROACH THAT GOES BEYOND TYPICAL DATING ADVICE
BUT MOST MEN HAVE NO IDEA BECAUSE...
MOST COACHES DON'T ADDRESS THE REAL ISSUES... BECAUSE THE QUICK-FIX ADVICE THEY SELL IS ALWAYS THE SAME
So, to them, it doesn't matter. But the point is that dating confidence issues should, in fact, be approached differently.
Overthinking and social anxiety don't just affect your dating life.
Clarity and Direction: Achieve a profound understanding of your goals and the actionable steps required to realize them
Relationship Struggles: Fear of rejection and societal pressures can cause emotional withdrawal, leading to communication issues and reduced intimacy in romantic and personal relationships.
Confidence Spillover: Struggles in dating and self-esteem can negatively affect workplace morale, communication, and overall job performance.
COULD THIS BE YOUR PROBLEM?
THE MAJORITY OF THESE SYMPTOMS START LONG BEFORE YOUR WOULD IDENTIFY THEM AS A DATING ISSUE...
Freezing up in social situations
Constantly replaying conversations in your head
Feeling "invisible" to attractive women
Forced, unnatural conversation
Social exhaustion
Feeling like you're performing rather than connecting
Difficulty maintaining eye contact
Second-guessing everything you say
Tension in your body during interactions
Fear of silence or "awkward moments"
Inability to flirt naturally
Feeling stuck in "friend zone" patterns
So, the question you should be asking is: what's the solution?
It's simple - address the root causes.
THERE ARE 2 ROOT CAUSES WE NEED TO ADDRESS TO BUILD NATURAL CONFIDENCE:
1. Mental-Physical Disconnection
Science acknowledges this, and I'll show you in a minute, that disconnection between your mind and body is the cause of most dating and social anxiety issues today.
2. Fear-Based Response Patterns
Science acknowledges this, and I'll show you in a minute, that disconnection between your mind and body is the cause of most dating and social anxiety issues today.
Both need to be addressed to be successful.
THE OVERTHINKING EPIDEMIC: WHY MOST MEN FAIL WITH WOMEN
The truth is: dating success should be approached completely differently. The overthinking trap doesn't just sabotage your dating life.
It shows up as constant self-doubt in business and career decisions
It manifests as awkward social interactions that cost you valuable connections
It creates a pattern of hesitation that women can sense within seconds of meeting you
It's responsible for the growing epidemic of male loneliness and disconnection
When "overthinking becomes chronic rather than situational... the minad turns against itself - with effects that seem to undermine all aspects of attraction and connection."
You see, these mental barriers represent blocking mechanisms.
They come in, attach to your natural confidence pathways, and even disrupt your ability to be present in conversations.
And once they get activated, you can't connect naturally.
You can't move from surface-level conversation to deeper connection, and you can't move past rejection without spiraling.
Therefore, it triggers patterns that get locked in. One of which could be your dating paralysis.
This will become more clear in a moment.
But right now, here's what I want you to understand:
YOU CAN MEMORIZE ALL THE PICKUP LINES AND PRACTICE ALL YOUR CONVERSATION STARTERS... BUT WHEN YOUR MIND IS TRAPPED IN OVERTHINKING, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO IMPLEMENT ANY OF THOSE TECHNIQUES EFFECTIVELY.
Just like your true personality can't show through when you're stuck analyzing every word.
You experience a drop in presence, which means you project insecurity instead of confidence.
I have a saying:
"If you don't fix the mental patterns, you won't fix your dating life."
In essence, we have to get to the cause of what's driving the chronic overthinking in most men across the globe.
The 3 Mental Blocks That Combine Into A Perfect Storm... And It's Wreaking Havoc On Your Dating Life
THE REJECTION TRIGGER
Whether you experienced it during childhood or in early dating attempts, this is most likely a problem for you. I'll explain:
Rejection sensitivity is inherited through early experiences - and it compounds over time.
Right, so rejection triggers are established early. And just like in the studies I've conducted with my clients, it turns on the overthinking patterns.
Let me share some personal proof:
All of my most successful clients started with extreme fear of rejection. They would literally freeze up at the thought of approaching an attractive woman.
After working through the Model Brunch process, they discovered something shocking: the rejection they feared was largely self-created.
THE PERFORMANCE TRAP
This is when you're constantly "on stage" in your own mind.
Major sources include social pressure, comparison to other men, and cultural expectations about masculinity.
It's mental performance anxiety that is truly the hidden problem.
THE DISCONNECTION CYCLE
This is how these other mental blocks are being reinforced and deepened.
If you aren't familiar with the disconnection cycle, it's a pattern that's affecting nearly all men today. And it makes the problem a whole lot worse.
There's extensive research showing that this mental disconnection we're all experiencing makes these overthinking patterns we've been exposed to since adolescence go DEEPER into our thought patterns, into our self-image, into our nervous system.
Think about it: These 3 mental blocks come together and boom... all of a sudden the pattern is triggered.
TAKE THIS 30-SECOND OVERTHINKING QUIZ
Replaying conversations after they happen
Hesitating before approaching women
Mental blanking during conversations
Feeling awkward during silences
Self-criticism about your social performance
Comparing yourself to other men
Day dreaming about interactions
Nervousness around attractive women
Forcing yourself to be someone you're not
Feeling invisible or overlooked by women
Look over this list. How many do you experience?
If you have 6 out of these 10? Your mental chatter is actively holding you back. If you have 10 out of 10? Overthinking has hijacked your dating life and you better be running for the answer.
So let me give you that answer right now:
You Need To Remove The Source. If The Problem's In The Mind, The Answer's In Direct Feedback.
>Real transformation MUST happen at the CORE PATTERN level. But we need to do this a particular way otherwise nothing will change.
That's where Model Brunch comes in. This is a roadmap that I use to help men break free from overthinking and it's how we change these patterns permanently.
You don't need all the specifics right now, as my program does that. But what you need to know right now is that:
This Is How We Break Those Mental Patterns That Are Triggered... And How We Rebuild Your Natural Confidence
When your mind is trapped in overthinking, it prevents natural attraction and connection, regardless of what lines or techniques you learn.
Therefore we want to remove the mental blocks directly. Here's the problem...
Addressing Overthinking Incorrectly Results In Your Symptoms Getting Worse
When they go deeper, they create what I call a "confidence depletion cycle." That's a mental pattern that's created in the brain, stored in your nervous system, and activated in social situations.
When confidence depletion binds with social anxiety, we get a toxic confidence complex. The technical name is Social-Cognitive Reinforcement.
The problem is when confidence drops in social situations (as it's expected to do when you're learning), what happens is it brings the overthinking patterns with it.
So now the bigger problem is this:
In The Social Interaction, Your Body Is Designed To Go Into Protection Mode, So It Doesn't Have To Face Rejection.
Do you see the problem with that?
This is called social self-sabotage.
In my system, which I've been teaching almost 10 years, we follow my process to rewire these mental patterns.
I use specific feedback mechanisms and pattern interrupts, so we don't reinforce the overthinking, so we can keep them from ending up back in your mental processes and other places in your social behavior.
And so when this toxic confidence complex is triggered in social situations, this pulls you back into natural confidence, so you don't self-sabotage.
This is where most dating coaches go wrong. They don't address the mental patterns. Real transformation happens right here at the core. That's why I keep saying "if you don't fix the patterns, you don't fix your dating life."
So this system, you're gonna learn more about it, but that's how we do it.
WANT MY HELP Breaking Free From Overthinking, Rejection Fear, Vulnerability Blocks, Masculine Pressure, and Body-Mind Disconnection So You Can Finally Create Hard-to-Ignore, Lasting Chemistry with Women?
After coaching hundreds of men around the world, I developed this comprehensive workshop.
It's been honed and refined over the past 10 years and is highly-effective in identifying the role mental patterns are playing in your dating life.
It's crucial you attend this workshop because it's going to be instrumental in transforming your dating confidence.
Here's What You're Going To Get...
1.) Live Interactive Sessions
Imagine you could step into a safe environment where you could ask any dating question that's been haunting you, and receive immediate, unfiltered feedback from the exact people you're trying to connect with. What if you could see, in real-time, how women actually respond to your approach rather than guessing or overthinking every interaction?
This is exactly what you'll experience in our two 3-hour interactive workshop sessions.
You'll get personalized feedback on your specific sticking points, communication style, and dating approach—directly addressing your unique challenges rather than generic advice.
Most men spend years and thousands of dollars on trial and error, never knowing why they're being rejected. How much is it worth to you to skip that painful process and get direct insight that eliminates the guesswork?
Wouldn't you rather invest 6 hours now than waste years of your life trapped in overthinking?
2.) Real Women's Feedback
Think about the last time a woman rejected you or seemed uninterested. What would it be worth to know exactly what she was thinking, what turned her off, and most importantly, what would have made her interested instead? Imagine having a panel of women who will actually tell you the truth instead of the polite responses you usually get.
That's the power of Model Brunch.
You'll receive direct insights from real women who will tell you exactly what they respond to and what repels them—without the sugar-coating or vague advice that leaves you more confused than before.
Men pay dating coaches thousands of dollars for second-hand advice about what women want, but how much more valuable is hearing it straight from the source? Can you see how this direct feedback could save you years of misinterpreting signals and making the same mistakes over and over?
3.) Expert Coaching
Picture having a trusted mentor who's helped hundreds of men overcome the exact same mental patterns that keep you stuck. Someone who can spot your blind spots instantly and show you the shortest path from overthinking to natural confidence—because he's navigated that journey himself and guided others through it successfully.
This is what you get with my direct no non-sense coaching.
He'll help you identify your specific mental blocks and show you exactly how to replace anxiety with authentic presence that women naturally respond to.
Top executives pay $10,000+ for executive coaching because they know external expertise is the fastest way to breakthrough. If having this level of expert guidance could transform not just your dating life but your entire self-concept, wouldn't that be worth more than any dating app subscription or therapy session that dances around the real issues?
4.) Live Q & A
Think about that burning question you have about dating that you've never had properly answered. The one that keeps you up at night wondering if you're doing something fundamentally wrong. What if you could ask it directly and get a clear, actionable answer that finally makes sense?
With our dedicated Q&A sessions, you can.
You'll have the opportunity to ask anything about your specific dating challenges and receive tailored advice that addresses your unique situation rather than generic tips.
How much time have you wasted Googling dating advice and getting contradictory information? What would it mean to finally have clarity on the questions that have been holding you back?
Can you see how this alone could be the difference between staying stuck and making real progress?
5.) ACCOUNTABILITY COMMUNITY
Imagine having a group of men who completely understand your struggle because they're going through the same journey. A place where you can be completely honest about your challenges without judgment, and receive support that keeps you moving forward even when things get tough.
That's exactly what our exclusive community provides.
You'll connect with like-minded men who will support your journey, celebrate your wins, and help you stay accountable to implementing what you learn.
Studies show that people with strong support systems are 80% more likely to achieve their goals. How much faster could you transform when surrounded by others who are committed to the same path? Wouldn't you love to never have to face these challenges alone again?

With lifetime access to all session recordings, you can.
You'll be able to revisit the material whenever you need a confidence boost or want to reinforce what you've learned.
Dating transformation isn't linear—we all have moments of doubt where we need to reconnect with our progress. How valuable is it to have a permanent resource you can return to whenever you face a new challenge? Isn't that peace of mind worth more than the price of admission alone?
