Sparkles and Rhinestones Pageant Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Hello, hello, hello

WE have been ill, summer holidays, just busy and I won't promise that we will be back posting loads of eps but every two weeks would be nice! A short but sweet ep about pageant advice and hot picks/takes as well as talking about some of the things we have going on as well as things we've stopped doing!

Dearest pageant listeners...

Hello my queens I am SO sorry that I have left the podcast unattended for so long! From finishing my second year of Uni, volunterring, being ill and a million mum things to do, I have not been able to record! But we WILL change (don't hold us to that!)

Today I am not alone and am joined from Down Under as the podcast takes to the shores of Australia where we interview Kimmi Jayne, of Kimmi Jayne Consulting as well as your newly crowned Ms Galaxy Australia who will be competing next month for the Galaxy International Ms Crown!

We talk all about pageant branding, how important it is to your winning success but also how you can gain valuable talking points in your interview as well as early access to the judges eyes! As well as talking about mindset to stay on top of your game and your mental health!

Kimmi can be found here on Insta @ kimmijaynecounsulting as well as ms_galaxy_australia_2024

The two H's of pageant coaching are talking pageantry! We have another special guest The Crown Coach aka Harriotte Lane, who has won national titles and placed 4th runner up at Miss International! She has won numerous awards for her coaching and charity pageants, as well as creating Crown Camp and her new social media business of The Social Generator!

We talk about how she became a coach, her highlights, how social media is a great tool in the lead up to the finals, pageant heels and those pageant icks!

You can find Harriotte on insta @thecrowncoach or on her website at https://www.crowncoach.online/

If you have any pageantry questions or want to hear a subject on the podcast, message us on insta!

Today we discuss about the aftermath of pageantry with the negative vibes and fix claims, as well as how to deal with your feelings of lost after a pageant.

For me, this is the ugly side of pageantry where someone needs to be blamed when someone doesn't do as well as one hoped.

Of course there will be times where it could be true and we will never silence anyone's voice, but think before you angry type...

We got former Ms Galaxy International 2019 Beth on the podcast! Beth has been on the pageant scene since 2007, and has held many national titles such as Miss and Ms Galaxy UK, Miss Grand England as well as Miss International UK! After finishing her International reign, she turned to pageant coaching to be able to share the knowledge on! Since then she has coached national and international winners, with all FIVE of the Galaxy UK 2023 winners training with Beth!

We talk about how she got into pageant coaching, coaching transparency, our pageant icks as well as what we want to more girls to learn/do more of!

It was amazing to talk to the queen herself, you can find her website at https://www.queenbpageanttraining.co.uk/

From Canada to the UK, we talk to The Pageant Gal Maria all about pageantry, from owning your power, not comparing yourself to others, the mindset of a queen as well as what we want to see in 2024 pageantry!!

Maria is a FULL time pageant coach hunnniiiii, she has followed her passion to a full time career in pageantry! Having the experience as a past national and international titleholder, she is helping queens from all over the world with her skills and knowledge! She is slaying the social media game with her unapologetic self, saying all that we wish we could!

Ok so I recorded this a week ago and nearly did what I have been doing for the past month of just not uploading and not liking the episode, writers block is real y'all

But we have had so much talk about the cost of pageants so I wanted to have a little chat about budgeting, how to reduce your costs with appearances and what no and just a general pageant chit chat!

A bit of a natter at the start but we break down the most asked questions in interview and how you can ace them!

 Comparison is the thief of joy, and that is what you do when you start to compare yourself to other contestants and to the current winners. We talk about how to focus on you, and be the queen you want toe be, without trying to be someone else.

We are SO sorry for the lack of episodes recently, summer holiday and illness has taken over! Remember you can suggest topics and give us feedback! Just find us on insta and DM!

What do you do with it, the do's and don'ts.
