#1 MINDSET + HIGH PERFORMANCE PODCAST FOR HIGH ACHIEVING PAGEANT WOMEN
Do you sometimes struggle to believe in yourself, despite having big, audacious goals? Have you ever felt alone, because you’re the only one in your circle dreaming as big as you are? Do you desire a deeper, more fulfilled life spiritually, mentally, and professionally, without the dreaded + seemingly never-ending “motivated vs totally burned out” cycle? Do you desire to know Jesus at a deeper level, want Christ-centered goals in line with His will for you, but don’t know where to start or who to trust? Do you want to learn the REAL things that will help you reach your next BIG goal in pageants, work, or your relationships? Do you want to finally conquer the inner-monster inside of you and step into your most confident, courageous self?
God wants you to be even holier, happier, healthier, hotter, and wealthier than you have even allowed yourself to dream of! (According to Ephesians 3:20; 3 John 1:2) What do I call this woman? A POWERHOUSE.
Welcome to The Powerhouse Podcast - Your Go-To show for high achieving, busy Christian women who want to live their dream lives – confident, courageous, making a massive impact, and on fire for God.
As busy Christian women, sometimes we feel guilty or like we have no time to build the life we feel called to by God. Or, we feel alienated because we’re the only person we know dreaming as big as the calling God’s put on your heart.
I created this podcast to show you that everything you’ve dreamed of is 100% possible for you. If you’re a pageant competitor - this will help you win your pageant. If you’re not, it will help you connect with God and yourself on a whole new level (yes, even for women with “no time”) so that you can accomplish whatever goals are on your heart in this season.
How? Just keep plugging in, applying what you hear, + listening to the next episode.
WHY SHOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME?
Hi, y’all! I’m Megan (Swanson) Rhodes - 2x Former Miss Nebraska (MAO + MUO), wife + mama, 7-Figure Entrepreneur, Christian NLP Mindset + Life Coach, singer, and author.

Pageant 101: 5 Rookie Mistakes That Cost First-Time Contestants The Crown
First timer (or feel like one)? This rapid, heart-to-heart breakdown exposes the five rookie traps that make smart, capable women lose interviews and onstage moments they should win. You’ll hear the real “I tried to wing it” story from Miss Nebraska at Miss America, why “looking the part” isn’t enough, and how to swap perfection-pressure for connection-power so you walk in prepared, present, and unforgettable.
What you’ll learn
The #1 rookie mindset: “I’ll just figure it out” (and why judges can feel it in seconds)
Perfection vs. connection: how obsessing over “flawless” backfires in interview
Why treating interview like a test (memorizing 365 Qs) tanks your adaptability
Image ≠ substance: aligning your internal confidence with your external look
The solo-practice trap: how to self-audit (video!) and get the right feedback fast
02:10 Mistake #1: Winging it / DIY (and the Miss America wake-up call)
09:40 Mistake #2: Chasing “perfect” instead of creating connection
13:25 Mistake #3: Treating interview like a test vs. a conversation
15:55 Mistake #4: Over-weighting image and under-training substance17:40 Mistake #5: Practicing alone — the video review method that works19:30 Leadership = presence: how you make people feel in every interaction
20:30 Faith, identity, and leading with purpose (why it all shows on stage)21:45 Free resources + how to plug into community and coaching
