At the core of powerful leadership is alignment — with vision, with people, and with self.

Yasmeen didn’t just help me get hired — she helped me believe I was ready by providing tools that gave me the clarity and confidence in my abilities. While also providing the language to own my value and lead from it. Today, I am a stand-alone HR leader for 100+ employees. I’ve never felt more internally aligned and capable in my role.”
