Moment Zero

Stuck on a decision you keep going back to?

Bring it to a live session. Together we'll look at the feeling as data, how it's steering your focus, and what you might be missing about the information in front of you.

Does this sound familiar?

• You've made the pros and cons list. More than once.
• The deadline keeps moving, or you're hoping something will decide it for you.
• Every option looks reasonable on paper, and none of them feels right.
• You've asked people what they'd do, and none of the advice quite fits.
• You keep going back over it, and it isn't getting any clearer.
Being stuck usually isn't about the options. Something you haven't noticed yet may be setting how much each one counts.

What is Moment Zero?

Something sets how much each option counts before you start weighing your decision.
Moment Zero is a way to see what it is before you choose.

Have a decision you keep going back to? Bring it to a live session.

One live session.
One real decision.

Bring a decision you're facing right now: a job, a move, a relationship, a business call, anything that matters to you.We'll go through four things, with your decision in front of us.

01

What you know
The facts, kept apart from the story you've built around them.

02

What you're feeling
The feeling, treated as data. What is it telling you, and what is it based on?

03

Where it's taking your focus
A feeling narrows what you notice, so some information gets weight and some slips past.

04

What you might be missing
Information that didn't get weight. Seeing it can change how the facts in front of you look.

Look beyond the options. Deconstruct what's shaping how you see them.

A pros and cons list, a scoring grid or more research can help make the options clearer. That helps when what you're missing is information.But a lot of people who are stuck already have the information. Your brain filters what you notice before it feels like you're choosing anything. An expectation, a fear you haven't named, or plain exhaustion can be setting how much each fact counts. It isn't always the cause, but when it is, adding more data doesn't help.This work is about slowing that down enough to see it.

What to expect

This session won't make the decision for you, and I won't tell you what to choose. It isn't therapy, and it won't make hard choices easy. What it gives you is a different way to look at the decision you're carrying, and a way of looking you can try again on the next one.

I'm Kim Korte

Founder of Moment Zero. Author of Yucky Yummy Savory Sweet: Understanding the Flavors of Emotions.I came to this the hard way. I ran into a marriage because my emotions felt like the truth. They were built out of fear, and I had no idea. I lost two businesses I'd helped build from scratch in the divorce.A few years later, I walked away from a co-founder opportunity. There was as much evidence for saying yes as for saying no, but I couldn't see it. My insecurity was choosing which evidence I paid attention to.I don't think better logic would have saved me either time. What I needed was a way to notice what was steering my attention while I could still do something about it. In 2024, I wrote a book about how the brain builds an emotional experience the way a cook builds a dish, and I built Moment Zero to teach it in practice.My work draws on research by Lisa Feldman Barrett, Antonio Damasio, Anil Seth and others on how the brain constructs experience.

For teams and organizations

When a team has the same information and still can't agree, it's often because each person is weighting it differently without realizing it. I run working sessions built around a real decision your team is facing, introductions to this work for leadership offsites, and longer engagements tied to a specific initiative. Pricing depends on group size and format.

Decision System Cohort

Founding Cohort Pricing: $195

You're joining before this becomes a known thing, and the price goes up when the program is finished. In exchange, I'll ask for honest feedback on what landed, what didn't, and what would make it better. Your input shapes the next version.

Every decision gets cooked before you taste it.The Decision System rests on five pillars, each one mapping a part of how your brain constructs a decision before it reaches conscious awareness. We take one each week.The framework comes from my book, Yucky Yummy Savory Sweet: Understanding the Flavors of Emotions, where I made the case that emotions are constructed the same way a dish is built. The kitchen language isn't decoration. It makes what's happening relatable, so you can feel it, not just understand it.The work is noticing the feeling, where it's taking your focus, and whether a second taste would tell you something different.You can't stop the brain's prediction, but you don't have to be run by it. You'll get better at telling one signal from another, fear from doubt for example, and at knowing when you're too depleted to trust what you're sensing. Trust in your own judgment comes back, not because you feel less, but because you get better at knowing what the feeling is actually telling you.The Cohort Track runs participants through The Decision System together, one pillar per week, applied to a decision each person has already made. The intake brings it into view. The framework makes it visible.Before the cohort starts, you complete an intake that identifies a decision you've already made, one you'll look back on throughout the five weeks. Each week: one 90-minute online group session and one assignment applied to that decision.Week 1—Ingredients: What You're Bringing Into the Decision
Ingredients are all of the sensory data your brain takes in from your environment. We start with introductions, then a look at what a decision is, how it forms, and what the brain uses to construct it.
Week 2—Experiencing the Flavors: The Signal Before the Decision
Flavor isn't just taste. It's several sensory signals arriving together as one sensation. The feeling behind a decision works the same way. We cover interoception, the internal sensory system linking body and brain, and why it's central to better decisions.
Week 3—Ingredient Use: The Data That Gets Filtered Out
Your brain takes in far more than you notice and filters out almost all of it before it reaches awareness. Learn how that filtering works, and what shifts when you can notice it happening in real time.
Week 4—Flavor Discrimination: Why Vocabulary Matters To Your Brain
This is the degree to which you can tell one internal signal from another: anxiety, resistance, uncertainty or dread. The more specific your language for what you're feeling, the more accurately you can act on it.
Week 5—Capacity: Good Decisions Require More Than Good Data
Capacity isn't motivation or skill. It's what's actually available to you right now. You'll learn what allostatic overload does to decision-making, and how to reduce it.
What You Take Away
At the end, I build you a report from your intake and the assessments along the way. It's made to use in daily practice, not to file away.
Five weeks.
Limited to eight people.
One framework, applied to a decision you've already made.
