forgotten passcode/encrypted data

so I had to recover my account because I forgot or mistyped my new passcode( I change it every few weeks as my job is security critical), I got back into it but can not access my encrypted data which is highly needed and highly sensitive, what do I do?

"About end-to-end encrypted data

End-to-end encrypted data can be decrypted only on your trusted devices where you’re signed in with your Apple ID. No one else can access your end-to-end encrypted data — not even Apple — and this data remains secure even in the case of a data breach in the cloud. If you lose access to your account, only you can recover this data, using your device passcode or password, recovery contact [ Set up an account recovery contact - Apple Support ], or recovery key [ How to generate a recovery key - Apple Support ]."
