Deborah Blignaut: CEO & Founder of Quietly Confident Women. My journey is fueled by a deep passion for empowering women to embark on a transformative path of self-discovery, healing, and unwavering confidence. As a Confidence & Mindset Life Coach, I specialize in guiding women through life’s adversities to believe in themselves and elevate from self-consciousness to self-confidence.

With over 25 years in the corporate hair and beauty industry, I thrived while coaching teams globally for prestigious brands. Despite my external success, I battled self-doubt and sought validation externally. This changed dramatically when I faced profound personal adversity in 2018, losing my husband to cancer. This loss shook me to my core, compelling me to reclaim my power and confront how past traumas had eroded my self-worth.

Determined to transform, I delved into personal development, discovering that healing and inner confidence are pivotal to achieving a fulfilling life. Certified by the Brave Thinking Institute and The Institute of Leadership, I founded Quietly Confident Women to empower others. Our core values — Empowerment, Authenticity, Transformation & Growth, Integrity, Resilience, Growth Mindset, and Compassion — guide our coaching practice.

Through our 12-step program, “Regain Your Life,” using the QC Coaching Method, women shed self-doubt, overcome limiting beliefs, and design lives they love. My mission is to share these transformative tools, ensuring no one navigates their journey alone.

Confidence isn’t about being loud; it’s about embracing your worth. My goal is to empower women to believe in themselves, pursue their dreams, and awaken to lives they love. Through personalized coaching, I guide women to reclaim their power, overcome self-doubt, and realize their dreams authentically.

I believe every woman holds the power to create a life she loves. My purpose is to empower women, transform adversity into growth, foster deep connections with inner strength, promote inclusivity, instill self-worth, and facilitate personal development.

Today, Quietly Confident Women not only enhances outer beauty but also nurtures inner strength and authenticity. Join me on this transformative journey toward confidence, resilience, and radiant empowerment. Together, let’s unlock the magic within, elevating lives with true inner confidence.
