Nasya Kamrat and Ricki Pasinelli spent years watching the same pattern repeat, and recently built MOT: a new growth operating system designed to fix what one-thing-at-a-time consulting never could. Nasya is a recovering founder and CEO with twenty years across brand, story, and experience. She sees the pattern before the spreadsheet confirms it. Ricki spent two decades next to CEOs making sure the vision didn't kill the company: building revenue, holding rooms, and telling people what they needed to hear. Together they built MOT after watching momentum die in the spaces between strategy, brand, marketing, relationships, and decisions. This episode is about what they found, why the fix that held for a quarter always drifts back, and what it actually takes to build momentum that holds. → Read about MOT:  Your Momentum Problem → Register for the workshops here: https://revthink.typeform.com/MOTWorkshopWorkshop 1: Growth PillarApril 14 | Where is your growth actually breaking down?
