From Self-Doubt to Unshakable Confidence with Simone Knego | The Susana Gibb Show
Ever catch yourself thinking, “I’m not ready yet” or “My voice doesn’t matter”?
Yeah… same. And that’s exactly why this conversation hits home.
In this episode of The Susana Gibb Show, I sit down with Simone Knego, empowerment coach, keynote speaker, author, and mom of six, to talk about what real confidence actually looks like (spoiler: it’s not loud, perfect, or fearless).
Simone shares her winding career journey, from accounting to horse farms to medical sales to the speaking stage, and how discovering the power of her own story changed everything. We dive into the sneaky ways self-doubt shows up in everyday language and how the words we use about ourselves quietly shape our reality.
She also teaches her simple but powerful mindset reset tool: Control-Alt-Delete, a way to interrupt negative thought spirals and replace them with beliefs that actually serve you.
We talk about:
Why confidence is built, not born
How to reframe the stories you tell yourself
The REAL method from her new book Real Confidence
What it takes to share your story vulnerably
Speaking on stage without spiraling into fear
Small daily habits that create big confidence shifts
Simone also opens up about co-hosting a podcast with her daughter, writing more vulnerably than ever before, and why celebrating tiny wins might be the most underrated confidence strategy of all.
