AS SEEN IN
You have a deep drive, a smart mind, a hunger to learn, a thousand different interests, and a burning desire for more. Yet you feel unfulfilled. Deep down, you sense that you're different from those around you. No matter how hard you try, you struggle to fit in.
​
YOU REALIZE THAT SO FAR, YOU'VE NOT EVEN SHOWN HALF OF WHAT YOU'RE CAPABLE OF.
​
And when you imagine what life could be like if you showed up in your full potential, it scares you. Because that's how BIG your impact would be.
​
But it also excites you. It makes you feel endlessly curious... And you LOVE to follow your curiosity.
​
​
If you want to unlock your giftedness and start living the life you know you're meant to live, then you've arrived in the right place.

Hi there, I'm Simone
I’m a giftedness coach, leader in life design for smart multi-talents, and founder of The Smart Rebel.
​
My own journey with giftedness has been full of challenges and growth. Growing up in the Netherlands, I often felt “different” and struggled with boredom, a lack of connection to others, and the constant feeling of “is this it?” These feelings led to depression, school trauma, and even physical illness.
​
However, things shifted when I began to channel my frustration into designing a life that worked for me. I took on unique experiences, like traveling the world solo, working as a sailor, completing three full-time BA degrees in three years, and living in various places—all while pursuing multiple passions at once.
​
This mindset has led me to incredible experiences: conducting award-winning research at the University of Cambridge, developing innovative methods, becoming a published author, releasing a music album, touring as a public speaker, and even working on ships in Antarctica—one of my biggest dreams.
​
Now, I work with gifted adults who want to design a life that embraces their multipassionate nature. From my base in Cambridge, I help my clients build careers, lifestyles, and mindsets that align with who they truly are, rather than trying to fit into a mold.
My Mission
My mission is to help multipotential, gifted individuals design a life that embraces their unique strengths and passions, empowering them to break free from limitations, overcome challenges, and create a path that truly aligns with who they are.
