Today we’d like to introduce you to Simonetta Lein.
Hi Simonetta, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I started with a dream — to use my voice and creativity to make a positive impact. Coming from Italy, I built my career step by step, first as a model and writer, then as a social media personality using my platform to empower others. When I founded The Simonetta Lein Show, I wanted to create meaningful conversations that inspire, uplift, and connect people across the world.
Over the years, what began as an independent digital talk show grew into a global movement — one that now welcomes some of the biggest names in entertainment, business, and culture. By Season 7, we’ve reached billions of viewers, trended worldwide, and become a space where authenticity meets purpose.
The show’s impact has been recognized on major stages, including Emmy special invitation, marking a powerful step from digital success into the mainstream spotlight. This new season is dedicated to Team Humanity — to resilience, legacy, and the collective power of people who turn challenges into change. It’s been an incredible journey — from manifesting a dream to living it, and now sharing it with the world.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road — but I believe that’s what makes the journey meaningful. I came to the U.S. as an immigrant with a dream, not from the “club” or with any connections in Hollywood. I had to build everything from the ground up — learning the industry, facing rejection, and proving that authenticity and consistency can break barriers. There were moments of doubt, but every challenge made me stronger. I’ve learned that you don’t need to be born into privilege to create impact — you just need vision, resilience, and heart. Those struggles shaped me and became the foundation of The Simonetta Lein Show and everything I stand for today.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
As an artist, I see my work as a bridge between creativity, emotion, and purpose. Everything I do — from fashion to media to The Simonetta Lein Show — is about storytelling. I use art, style, and conversation as tools to inspire and heal. I’m known for my ability to blend glamour with meaning — to make people feel something real, even in a world often focused on appearances.
What sets me apart is that I create from a place of empathy. Whether I’m interviewing global icons or designing clothing that’s gentle on the skin and good for the soul, I want my work to remind people that beauty and kindness can coexist. I’m most proud of having built a platform that celebrates authenticity — showing that success doesn’t have to come from privilege, but from passion, consistency, and heart.
Is there anyone you’d like to thank or give credit to?
No one succeeds alone, and I’m deeply grateful for the people who have believed in me along the way. My husband, manager, and executive producer of The Simonetta Lein Show, Raphael Anthony Amabile, has been my greatest supporter and creative partner. He’s believed in my vision from the very beginning and has worked tirelessly behind the scenes to help bring it to life on a global scale.
Our journey together has been built on trust, perseverance, and a shared passion for creating something meaningful. Alongside Raphael, I’m thankful for my dedicated team, Ausonia Partners for producing it all, to our incredible guests, and the mentors and collaborators who have helped elevate the show into a true movement. Every person who has contributed energy, talent, or encouragement has played a part in this beautiful story.
