In this insightful and power-packed episode, I sit down with speaker, author, and confidence coach Simone Knego to break down the hidden truth about confidence. So many high-achievers look confident, but underneath the surface, they’re battling self-doubt, impostor syndrome, and a constant need for validation. Sound familiar?
From self-doubt to impostor syndrome, we uncover why so many confident-looking individuals are quietly battling fear and unworthiness behind the scenes. You’ll learn what real confidence actually looks like, how to build it, and why self-respect is the foundation of it all.
We dive deep into Simone’s REAL Method, a 4-part framework (Respect, Embrace, Ask, Live), that helps you move from performance-driven living to authentic, unshakable confidence.
In this episode, expect to learn:

• Why real confidence is built, not born
• The toxic difference between confidence and performance
• How perfectionism, people-pleasing, and validation-seeking destroy self-worth
• A simple mindset reframe that will help you set better boundaries
• Why most confident people still battle insecurity behind closed doors
• How to identify and rewrite the stories sabotaging your self-esteem
• What most people misunderstand about confidence in men vs. women
• How your inner dialogue is shaping your entire identity
• Plus much more
