A lot of pageant girls will claim that they're not your typical pageant girl, but I'm willing to bet there aren't many who play AFL, rugby and are a sports commentator on radio. Miss World Australia 2019 Sarah Marschke does all of those on top of working as a disability worker and running a charitable effort in South Africa with the help of her brother. She also sings at the Conservatorium of Musi...

Saryna Ritter has a life that many pageant girls would be envious of. Not only does she have the title of Ms US Continental, she also works for exclusive designer brand Mac Duggal. Outside of that, Saryna is constantly on the go. When we caught up for our interview she was coming to us from a hotel room whilst on the road for work.

Turnabout being fair play and all, it's probably about time someone interviewed me rather than the other way round. That dubious distinction fell to The Inner Beauty Initiative, co-founded by Natalie Carley and Emma Collingridge, the latter of whom I had interviewed in the leadup to Galaxy International 2019. It was a wide-ranging interview, touching on my work with The Pageant Project in parts, b...

Starting off in pageantry can be an intimidating experience, especially if you have no idea where to start or who to turn to for advice. In this episode we're giving some tips on where we all started on our respective pageant journeys and some of the things we wished we had known when we were starting out. For this episode we were joined by special guest Sara Copeland, the newly-crowned Miss Model...

Ashleigh Wild was initially scouted to participate in a pageant and has the unusual distinction of winning all three pageants she has competed in. She credits pageantry for helping her deal with the death of her father from sepsis, and recently posted on Instagram about her battle with acne after receiving an abusive message at the gym. She initially won the title of Miss Grand England, but will n...

For someone who's tall, blonde and recently received Instagram's blue verification tick, Harriotte Lane is remarkably humble, down to earth and hard-working. She is also the Founder of The Pageant Network in the UK. We interviewed with just a month to go before she headed to Japan to represent the UK on the Miss International stage. If you enjoyed this interview, make sure to SUBSCRIBE for more am...

Freya Taylor was working as a bona fide Disney princess in Paris when she first heard about pageantry, deciding to enter as a bit of a laugh after a Google search. Six years later she is poised to represent her country of Scotland on the international Miss Global stage, after initially holding the title of Miss Grand Scotland as well.

Olivia McPike is the first Scottish pageant competitor I've interviewed, her pageantry journey also being a self-development journey for the make-up artist who suffered from anxiety and depression. Thankfully I understood her accent just fine, just make sure not to mention mashed potatoes, haggis or her least favourite word in her presence!

Kelsey Poulton says she enjoyed coming back to pageantry after taking a three year break because no-one really knew who she was. After being crowned Miss Galaxy 2020 in Orlando Florida, it's safe to say that anonymity is one luxury she may no longer have. Kelsey identifies herself as hard-working, and returned to the Galaxy international stage immediately after placing first runner-up in 2019 to h...

Heather Hopkins has had a pageant career spanning the better part of a decade, only recently coming back into the fray after taking a three year break. She has her eyes set firmly on the Galaxy system and loves to keep herself busy in between her shift work for the police and making appearances all over the UK.

Joanna Johnson is the first international queen I've interviewed who had just handed over her title (only two weeks ago at time of recording). We talked about the highlights of her reign, what she plans to do with herself both in the pageantry world and life in general, and a lot of random banter about things... like our mutual love for cheese. If you enjoyed this interview, make sure to SUBSCRIBE...

Crystal Cavey originally entered pageantry to better understand her daughter's pageant journey. She prides herself on being the hardest-working queen in the room and on having a plan, both of which will no doubt be on display during her reign as Mrs Galaxy 2020.

Susana Downes is a singer, dancer and actor with her eyes set on starring on Broadway some day. I caught up with Susana with less than a week to go before the National Finals of Miss Earth Australia 2019.

Pageantry isn't always sunshine and rainbows, but have you ever noticed how rarely negative experiences are brought up or discussed in public? If you plan on being in pageantry for any considerable length of time, the question isn't WHETHER you'll have a negative experience. It's what will you do WHEN you have a negative experience. For this episode we were lucky enough to be joined by Miss Austra...

I get the feeling Danielle Latimer didn't spend much time sitting still as a kid: dancing, cheerleading, playing dodgeball... any excuse to get out of homework basically. Now as Ms London Galaxy 2019 and with almost ten years experience under her belt, the self-confessed travel addict has her eyes set on the big prize.

So you want to enter (or re-enter) pageantry, but how do you pick the system that's right for you? Spoiler alert: there's obviously no definitive one-size-fits-all answer, however we cover some things you should definitely look for when on your quest for pageant nirvana, as well as some of the things to avoid. We also have a heart-warmingly awkward moment when Emily Egan (our special guest for thi...

Beverley Roberts' pageant journey started approximately twelve years ago in the Universe system. I interviewed her at the end of Day 1 of the Galaxy International pageant where she is competing in memory of her grandmother who passed away due to breast cancer. Beverley is an active fundraiser and also owns her own hair and beauty business. If you enjoyed this interview, make sure to SUBSCRIBE for...
