In today’s episode, we’re getting real about what it means to grow beyond the crown. I’ll be sharing takeaways from my recent experience at the 2025 Regional Canada pageants, and why it's so important to focus on your personal development, build a strong personal brand, and create lasting impact, whether or not you take home a title.
We’ll talk about setting goals that go deeper than the competition and how to measure your success by the growth you experience and the lives you touch. This is a must-listen for every pageant girl who wants to train like a queen and walk away winning in life no matter the outcome.
