Who are you and what do you do?
A simple enough question but what if you’re too close to see it? I tell you what I see from the outside.
I’m Talyn Rahman-Figueroa, the Fairy BOSSmother. I’m a Public Identity Expert and British-trained diplomat, and I spot the strengths, contradictions and signals you may be too close to notice.
How do you talk about yourself in a way that serves you and other people?
That’s what I fix for you.
People need to make themselves understandable to strangers who have limited time, attention and context. Your public identity is what another person can recognise and understand from what you communicate and demonstrate.
YOU MIGHT NEED AN OUTSIDE PAIR OF EYES.
☑️ You know what you mean, but other people aren’t seeing it in the same way.
☑️ Something about your communication feels off, but you’re too close to name what that is.
☑️ Your role, reputation or organisation has changed, but the outside world hasn’t caught up.
☑️ What you intend to communicate and what people actually perceive are two very different things.
☑️ The people around you aren’t challenging you, so you don’t know what the truth is.
☑️ You need an outside perspective to understand your situation before making the next move.
HERE’S WHAT I NOTICE
The thing you barely think about might be the thing I can’t stop seeing.
When you speak, I listen out for patterns, contradictions, borrowed identities, your past self, and a future you may not have thought about. This level of heightened perception is something you don’t have in your own organisation or circle, but now you do.
I’ll know the gap when I see it. And now you’ll know it too.
What people say after I show them
what they couldn’t see themselves…

“I didn’t know what to expect, so I was a little nervous going in, but Talyn is so easy to talk that the conversation just flowed.”

Experience the
HUMAN BRAND X-RAY
You’ve been looking at yourself from the inside your whole life. I want to see what happens when I look from the outside. You send me a short video. I watch with as little context as possible. Then I’ll tell you what I see.
Don’t take my word for it. Watch me do it.
MEET TALYN
The Fairy BOSSmother
I didn’t set out to become the Fairy BOSSmother.
I spent years in diplomacy, politics and international affairs, surrounded by people with impressive titles. Heads of states, ambassadors, politicians, decision-makers. And I became fascinated by what happened when you stopped listening to the title and started paying attention to the person. What they repeated, what they avoided, what changed when they entered a room. The things everybody else seemed to accept without questioning.
Then I left that world and built businesses of my own. And somewhere along the way, I realised I’d been doing the same thing for years: watching people. The Fairy BOSSmother gave that part of me a name.
Today, I’m a Public Identity Expert and Perception Strategist. I look at people and organisations from the outside and tell them what I see that they may be too close to see themselves.
I don’t know what I’ll notice until I look. That’s rather the point.
