Reliving the Most Memorable Moments That Shaped Our Year

What if confidence isn’t about doing more—but about recognizing everything you’ve already done?

In this heartfelt and honest episode of Her Unshakeable Confidence, Simone and Olivia Knego reflect on the start of a new year by looking back at accomplishments, growth, and the moments that shaped them—both joyful and painful. From personal milestones and unexpected travel stories to managing health challenges, navigating grief, and redefining success, they explore what it really means to honor your journey.

With humor, vulnerability, and real-life moments, this conversation is a reminder that confidence grows when you give yourself credit, focus on experiences over perfection, and allow space for both loss and hope.

Actionable Takeaways

  • Take time to reflect on what you did accomplish—not just what you didn’t.
  • Recognize that even small wins count, especially during hard seasons.
  • Choose experiences and connections over accumulating “stuff.”
  • Allow yourself to feel grief without letting it erase joy or progress.
  • Redefine productivity to include rest, creativity, and self-care.
  • Practice self-compassion—confidence grows when you acknowledge resilience.
