She was Miss Maryland 1988, a baton-twirling powerhouse who brought unmatched preparation to the stage and earned a spot at Miss America. But Lori Windsor Hunt’s story didn’t end with a crown.

In this episode, Lori shares how fierce ambition gave way to unexpected pivots- from earning her master’s degree and planning for a CEO role, to becoming a stay-at-home mom of twins and leading a thriving community service club in Alabama. She reflects on identity, impact, resilience through a recent cancer diagnosis, and the legacy of mentorship she’s now leaving through local pageants and service.

It’s a powerful story of growth, grit, and letting go.
