Yasmin Vantuykom: The invisible middle. #66


No one hands you the next step.
You make it, and then you take it.

April 2026

This Week on "Scrollaholics"...

Someone told me last week: “You’re relentless. I see you everywhere”

And I haven’t stopped thinking about it.

Because I think they meant it as a compliment. But from the inside, relentless does not always feel beautiful.

It feels like waking up every day knowing there is no plan B. No one is coming to hand you the next step. No one is going to say: this is the exact thing you need to do now.

You just have to move.

Again.

You look at the numbers. You look at the work. You look at the gap between what you are building and what the world has understood so far. And then you open your laptop, make the call, send the proposal, adjust the story, follow up, rethink, restart.

Every day again.

That is the strange part of entrepreneurship. People see the launches, the photos, the milestones. But so much of it happens in the invisible middle. The part where you are carrying belief before there is enough proof.

And still, you keep going.

Not because you never doubt. Not because you always feel brave. But because something in you knows that what you are building matters.

For me, that is QUYET.

Not just a product. A full guidance to more rest, focus and productivity.

So yes, maybe I am relentless.

And maybe one day, what felt relentless will simply look like belief that refused to leave.

Yasmin Vantuykom: Newsletter #65 Belief is what you do before the numbers agree. February 2025 This Week on "Scrollaholics"... I didn’t write a newsletter lately because work has been… loud. Not “busy” loud. More like existential spreadsheet loud. Because here’s the part nobody romanticizes: it takes a very specific kind of belief to keep going when the math isn’t rewarding you yet. When you’re doing a lot, reinvesting everything, and the numbers don’t reflect the effort. When progress is...

Yasmin Vantuykom: Newsletter #64 Not everything needs celebrating. But progress deserves tracking. December 2025 This Week on "Scrollaholics"... Since 2020, I’ve been keeping a Tada-Da list next to my To-Do list. It’s a simple habit: capturing what has actually been delivered, especially the things that, a year earlier, were still just plans. Here’s what made the list recently: A real leap into a new space. From concept to physical product, and from solo building to an expert community,...

Yasmin Vantuykom: Newsletter #63 The new status symbol? Being offline. November 2025 This Week on "Scrollaholics"... Offline is the new luxury. At least, that’s what Vogue says. Brands are leaning into analog experiences, tactile materials, and slower ways of living, because apparently, scrolling less is suddenly chic. Tote bags filled with books, puzzles, and journals are trending on TikTok. A flip phone or “no followers” status? Instant cool. Wearing yesterday’s micro-trends online is...
