CONFIDENCE FUELS PRODUCTIVITY
80% of People Struggle With Self-Esteem?
You want your team operating at their best—engaged, productive, and confident. When individuals believe in themselves, they take initiative, innovate, and contribute at a higher level.
Confidence is such a key ingredient to success that 93% of businesses cite it as the most important factor in hiring. Yet, 80% of people struggle with self-esteem, making confidence a highly desirable trait that many find difficult to attain.
At the same time, 83% of U.S. workers experience work-related stress, much of it self-imposed, chipping away at their confidence.
Pressure, stress, and self-doubt don’t just slow people down—they hold them back.
Here's how these persistent uncertainties show up in your life:
- Mediocrity at work
- Missed opportunities
- Seeking external approval
- Decision-making paralysis
- Comparing yourself to others
- Not setting healthy boundaries
- Staying silent instead of speaking up
There is good news.
We can change the way we see ourselves, feel about ourselves, and how we show up in the world. And the better news? It’s easier than you think.
I’ve been where you are—struggling under the weight of relentless pressure, feeling like no matter how much I achieved, it was never enough. But I found a way through. Now, I’m eager to share my journey with you, to help you break free from the self-imposed pressure and build unshakeable confidence—enabling you to perform at your highest level, take bold action, and create a greater impact in your work and life.
Hi, I'm Simone.
International Speaker, Award-Winning Author & TEDx Speaker
As a busy mom of 6, working full-time and managing a bustling household, everyone always assumed I must’ve had my sh*t together. Nothing could have been further from the truth. The reality is I was riddled with self-doubt, second-guessed every decision I made and struggled accepting even basic compliments because I did not believe in myself.
It wasn’t until I was asked to do something that shook me out of my shell that things finally started to shift for me. Summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro at age 42 was both the hardest and best thing I’d ever done for myself. It taught me that we need to do the things that we think we cannot do, the things that seem impossible, because THAT is where true growth happens.
After conquering what seemed like an “impossible” goal, I felt inspired and empowered to conquer all of my daily doubts: comparison, judgment, fear of what others will think of me… The decision to climb MY mountain of insecurities set me on the path to becoming the best version of myself and it changed all aspects of my life and my family’s life.
This is why I’m so passionate about helping professionals who struggle with pressure and self-doubt build unshakeable confidence and reach their full potential.

The REAL Method to Build Unshakeable Confidence
So, how do we build unshakeable confidence and become unstoppable?
In the 10 years since summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro, I devoted myself to studying the transformation that I underwent so that I could boil it down to a simple (and repeatable) framework that I could share with others.
That is how the REAL Method was born. I discovered that there are four key areas that create unstoppable resilience, rock-solid boldness and unshakeable confidence.
Self-respect
Self-respect forms the foundation for how we treat ourselves and dictates the boundaries we set with others, impacting our overall well-being. If we don’t show respect to ourselves, how can we expect it from others?
Self-acceptance
Self-acceptance allows us to embrace the totality of who we are, including our strengths and accomplishments and our weaknesses and shortcomings, leading us to understand that failures are simply stepping stones to success.
Self-worth
Self-worth is the internal sense of your own value as a person, regardless of external validations or accomplishments. When we have strong self-worth, we feel more confident, make healthier choices, and build more positive relationships.
Self-love
Self-love is the foundation for living without limits. It’s recognizing your worth isn’t defined by achievements or external approval but by who you are at your core. When you embrace yourself, you gain the confidence to take risks, pursue your dreams, and create a life of freedom.
Turn Pressure into Purpose. Transform Limits into Possibilities.
Unshakeable Confidence isn’t just about believing in yourself—it’s about boldly choosing yourself. It’s about shifting from obligation to inspiration, from self-doubt to self-respect, and from fear to fearless action.
- Redefine failure as a stepping stone to success.
- Make decisions with clarity—no more second guessing.
- Own your achievements without comparison or apology.
- Set boundaries that honor your time, energy and priorities
- Cultivate self-worth from within, free from external validation
- Speak up and stand out in any room, knowing your voice matters.
- Advance in your career and personal life by confidently advocating for yourself.
You don’t have to prove yourself to anyone. You just have to step into the power that’s already yours.
