Break the Cycle Before It Breaks You

If you've ever felt silenced, shamed, or stuck in generational pain-this book is your revolution.

In this raw, empowering memoir-meets-manifesto, Priscilla María Gutiérrez, J.D., invites readers on a journey of healing, self-love, and radical truth-telling. From surviving sexual assault, domestic violence, substance abuse, and eating disorders to discovering the power of self-validation and boundaries, Break the Cycle Before It Breaks You is a call to reclaim your voice and write a new story-on your terms.

Told with heart, vulnerability, and cultural nuance, this book is for the cycle breakers-the ones healing in the middle of the mess, standing up when it's hard, and choosing to lead with compassion in a world that tried to silence them.

Through gripping personal narratives, reflection prompts, and cycle breaker challenges, Gutiérrez equips readers to:

• • Own their story and release shame
  • Advocate for their mental health without apology
  • Set boundaries rooted in self-respect
  • Transform trauma into wisdom and self-trust
  • Embrace resilience as a lifestyle, not a destination

Whether you're still healing, just starting, or guiding others along the way, this book reminds you: you are not broken-you are breaking free.

Perfect for:

• • Survivors of trauma ready to reclaim their voice
  • Latinx, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ readers seeking culturally aware healing
  • Therapists, advocates, and educators guiding others through recovery
  • Anyone choosing self-love over silence

Break the Cycle isn't just a book. It's a movement. One page at a time, you'll rediscover your power.
