Simone Knego on Real Confidence, Kitchen Table Leadership, and Everyday Choices

from The Adventure Paradox · host Cat Caldwell Myers

What if confidence was not something you were born with or without, but something you could build, moment by moment, through the choices you make every day?In this episode, I sit down with Simone Knego, bestselling author, international speaker, and creator of the REAL Method, for a thoughtful and honest conversation about confidence, leadership, and seeing yourself differently.Simone invites us to widen our definition of leadership beyond titles and achievements and into the everyday moments that shape our lives. We talk about her concept of kitchen table leadership, how family decisions become leadership decisions, and what it looks like to lead with values, compassion, and presence at home and beyond.She walks us through her REAL framework for building confidence from the inside out by respecting yourself, embracing failure, asking yourself what you truly want, and choosing to live without limits. Along the way, Simone shares stories from motherhood, adoption, career pivots, podcasting with her daughter, and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, each one pointing back to the same truth: confidence is built through lived experience, not perfection.Links and ResourcesWebsiteREAL Confidence bookFacebookInstagramLinkedInYouTube: Her Unshakeable ConfidenceHer Unshakeable Confidence Podcast I’ve also launched a new podcast called Year Of The Horse Adventure Coach.
