Simone Knego, Author, keynote motivational speaker
Biz woman/philanthropist and mom of 6 who scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro, having never climbed a mountain before—an inspiring and accomplished go-getter with a can-do spirit!
A former CPA, turned equestrian entrepreneur, turned teacher who’s the mother of 6—3 adopted from S. Korea and Ethiopia, Simone Knego has the uncanny ability to both motivate and inspire others to be the good in the world. An international leader and keynote speaker, she recently scaled Mount Kilimanjaro (the highest mountain in Africa) to raise funds for the Livestrong Foundation in spite of the fact she’d never climbed a mountain before. Simone believes changing the way you see yourself is the critical first step to helping the world around you change. In her new bestselling book, The Extraordinary UnOrdinary You: Follow Your Own Path, Discover Your Own Journey, she shares real-world and highly actionable insights with stories of humorous and moving everyday moments from her own life—and how others can discover they, too, are UnOrdinary...in the best possible way.
