Today I explain why I've decided to end the Life After the Crown Podcast and what lies ahead. 

My guest today was Miss Kansas USA 1993 and second runner up that year at Miss USA. She was also a semi-finalist at Miss Teen USA 1990, representing Missouri. She is married to Clark Hunt, the Chairman and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs. Today we chat about being a pageant mom to her daughter Gracie, being the wife of an NFL owner and possibly getting more involved in the world of pageantry in the future.

She has also been featured in Cosmo, Shape, Maxim and Vogue magazines. She graduated in 2011 from Boston University with a Bachelor of Science in Heath Sciences. This past August she got engaged to her now Fiancé Jay Hector. Excited to welcome Miss USA 210, Olivia Jordan to the Podcast! 

A Nebraska native, Sarah graduated cum laude from Texas Christian University (AKA TCU) in four years with two degrees while working part-time as a pilates instructor at Tatiana at Lululemon Athletica.

Following graduation, she completed her clinical rotations to become a Certified Child Life Specialist. In addition to child advocacy, she is passionate about encouraging others to have a healthy relationship with food and fitness - she spoke out about body shaming during her year as Miss USA to shine a light on society’s distorted ideals of beauty.

She can now be found hosting events, taking a dance party cycling class, or enriching people’s lives through her new podcast called More Than A Crown.

Fresh off the latest version of Miss America airing on NBC, former Miss America's Betty Maxwell and Savvy Shields have plenty to say about the newest version of the pageant (aka competition) and today they share ALL their thoughts on Miss America 2.0

After 2 years and 102 guests, I explain why I'm taking a Summer Hiatus before I launch the 3rd season!

My guest today is the current Miss Texas USA and in 2017 was Miss Grand United States where she was able to travel the world and spent a month in Vietnam. With all the craziness surrounding being quarantined and not knowing when Miss USA will be in 2020, we chat about how she's preparing and what her goals are once pageantry is done. 

I've had a ton of requests for today's guest. She was Miss Tennessee Teen USA 2018 and placed Top 10 that year at Miss Teen USA. Since giving up her crown she has gone on to walk in the coveted Victoria’s Secret Fashion show, shoot their campaign, and has quickly made a name for herself as an up and coming model. 

My guest today was Miss USA 2003 and Miss Massachusetts Teen USA 1998. She co-hosted Miss Teen USA in 2005 and as had a successful career as an actor, television host, and author. She is also the co-founder of Pageantology with her Miss USA sister Shandi Finnessey and together they are known as two of the most prominent and sought-after pageant coaches in the industry.

You may recognize her from her years of being an MTV host and washing my face in commercials as a Neutrogena ambassador...or from one of her many acting gigs. 

My guest today is a former Division 1 track and field Heptathlete and Oklahoma State University. She made history as the first woman to hold titles in two major pageant systems back-to-back in Oklahoma. She was also Miss Oklahoma America 2018 and Miss Oklahoma USA 2019, and this past Spring took 2nd Runner Up at Miss USA.

My guest today is the reigning Miss World America Washington, a global speaker, and a survivor. At age 12 she had a heart block and received a pacemaker and was told she would never dance again. However, she overcame her heart challenges and was selected at the world-famous Joffrey Ballet. Then, just a few years ago, she was in a near-fatal car accident and suffered major facial burns, but she continued to rise up from challenges and focus her energy on what she can do to make a difference through pageantry.
