Hi friends,
I was out beaming with pride yesterday as my little human was back on her scooter at the scene of the crime (our local park) after her A&E incident a couple of months back where she tore off her fingernail and we ended up spending a whole Sunday in hospital.

She was understandably nervous.

She growled at the corner of the bike ramp (yes, growled) to show she didn’t like it.

And then, after a cuddle and some “I can do this” mantras she was off.

Slow at first (she used to whizz round).

But slow didn’t stop her. She kept going. I kept cheering.

And then...

She didn’t put her foot down going round the bend.

She picked up speed and sailed over the three big bumps in one go.

And within 20 minutes she was flying round that track like nothing ever happened.


Yes, I am absolutely about to link this to your career 🤓

Because the clients I work with?

Most of them don’t show up overflowing with confidence.

They don’t recognise themselves in the mirror.

The version of them that used to feel sharp, assured, respected… feels long gone.

It’s like the mirror’s been dulled.

And sometimes (not always), that’s the result of toxic workplaces, a manager who crushed their confidence, or doing work that chips away at your energy and identity bit by bit.

So when we start working together, they’re not looking for surface-level pep talks.

They want strategy. They want clarity. They want to get shit done.

And maybe someone in their corner who believes in them loudly until they remember how to believe in themselves again.

So we start slow.

Not because they aren’t capable.

But because rebuilding confidence isn’t about bouncing back fast it’s about reconnecting with who you were before you got knocked.

And then?

You start taking bolder steps.

You say no to roles that don't fit.

You get clear on what makes you BRILLIANT and lean into it

You get comfortable with discomfort because you trust yourself

You pitch yourself confidently for jobs that once felt out of reach.

You stop apologising for wanting more.

Until one day you say to me:

"I feel like me again."

Except it won't be the old you

It’s the real you this time, with clarity, purpose, and a powerful plan.

If you’re ready to get back to “you” the version that knows what you bring, where you’re going, and how to own your space with energy and joy.

UNTAPPED is where we do exactly that.

It’s built for consulting leaders and generalists who are ready to reconnect with what they’re great at and use it to build confidence and land a role that finally feels right.

We kick off on the 9th June - and doors shut on the 6th June.

AND because this is the last cohort to join the BETA programme you have a £1000 discount reducing the price from £2599 to £1599

I will be sending a few more emails than usual over the next fortnight talking about UNTAPPED because this really will be the last chance to get this much direct access to me for a price like this.

So if you have been thinking about working with me for a little while I'd jump on it!

You can check out all the details here and then book a call with me to ask all the questions you need (and so I can say hello!)

Yasmin (back on the scooter) Da Rocha.

PS: Register for my FREE workshop on Monday June 2nd. 7:30pm - I won't be running it again till the end of July so don't miss out!
