Vered Kogan | Momentum isn't a Mystery - It's a Method (Here's How to Find it)

Episode Overview

Change‑catalyst Vered Kogan, founder of Momentum Institute, sits down with Tina to share science‑backed tools that help entrepreneurs dissolve limiting beliefs, regulate their nervous system and stay in forward motion. She walks listeners through her five‑step S‑H‑I‑F‑T roadmap live on‑air, demonstrating how a two‑minute internal reset can turn inertia into inspired action.

🔥 What You’ll Learn

  • The four “stuck” quadrants— inertia, spinning, incubation and momentum— and why each one carries valuable data
  • How to run the S‑H‑I‑F‑T process:
  • State: Name every feeling (“A part of me feels…”)
  • Heart: Use heart‑focused breathing to create coherence
  • Insight: Ask your heart what really matters and wait for the answer
  • Focus: Identify one aligned priority that moves you forward
  • Take Action: Commit immediately—momentum loves speed
  • Why heart–brain coherence boosts creativity, intuition and influence (90 % of the signals travel from heart → brain!)
  • A daily “shift‑once‑a‑day” ritual that keeps stress hormones in check and energy high

🧠 Notable Quotes

“You cannot think your way out of it—it’s a body thing.”
“To go faster, we’ve got to go slower.”
“No bad parts.”

🎯 Actionable Takeaways

  1. Run S‑H‑I‑F‑T every morning. Two minutes of heart‑focused breathing plus an intentional question primes your nervous system for clarity and momentum
  2. Map your stuck quadrant. Ask: Am I inert, spinning, incubating, or in momentum? Then choose the next micro‑action that aligns with where you want to be
  3. Active listening beats perfect pitching. Approach every sales or partnership call with curiosity and rapport to calm the other person’s nervous system and yours
  4. Anchor heart coherence before big decisions. A smooth HRV pattern improves intuition and reduces decision fatigue
