In this episode we talk about pageant coaching, what you should be looking for in your coach, what you can gain from coaching as well as ways to still train without having a coach! We know here at Sparkles and Rhinestones that not everyone can have access to coaching so we have lots of products and free advice to help, but if you want to step up your game and can afford to, there are lot's of coaches here in the UK (us included!). Pick who is right for you and get that crown girl!

With lockdown, there has been an increase in pageant campaigns. But the question is, do you really need to create a campaign? How does it benefit your pageant journey? Could you talk about it in your interview? Does it make the impact it should? Have a listen and see!

Remember you can find us on Facebook and Instagram, let us know your thoughts and what you want us to talk about! 

It's the question that we all think, are pageant queens required to be role models?! Should we be inspiring, should there be consequences for not fulfilling the role? What do you think? 

You can find us on social media, just search for Sparkles and Rhinestones! Drop us a message on what topics to cover, if you would like to be interviewed for our Facebook series or whether you would like to book in for coaching! 

The blunt truth of it all, if pageants don't bring you joy and you don't love the system you are in, get out! Change! Remove yourself and find a path where you want to do appearances, where you want to love your platform and show that passion, where you love the system and everything it represents! You gotta love yourself! This is what we talk about on today's podcast!

Today's podcast talks about when you will come up with disappointment in pageantry, from lack of people joining in your campaigns, not winning or not having your winning year the way you expected it.

This podcast is simply an interview prep tool for you to use, we have a little intro and outro but the main focus is providing you with different questions for you to practice to.

Practice tool! Use this podcast, pause after the question to give your answer. Use a timer to see how long it takes you to answer, record yourself saying the answer so you can identify what parts you need to take out or include and use it in a series of different mock questions!

In a pageant interview, we want to be projecting our best selfies and not focus on anything. negative unless it's proving a point with our platform. Some questions that the judges may ask can make you say things that can seem negative on your other competitors or borderline that fine line between cocky and confident. In this podcast episode we discuss the questions of, "Why should you win over everyone else" and "If you could change anything about this pageant, what would it be?"

We will be talking about more pageant interview answers as well as lot's of other pageant topics! if you want to know more, you can buy The Ultimate Pageant Handbook which goes more in depth with all things pageantry! Just message us on instagram at @sparklesandrhinestonesuk to get your copy!
