Our guest today is Amber Neff, here's Amber describing her platform.... My platform is that of building confidence through pageantry and sisterhood. Since competing in Miss Curvy Nevada 4 years ago, I have met women who have built my confidence and have supported my dreams and become sisters to me, and I have supported them as well. In turn, I continue that by encouraging people to support each other through pageantry. Pageants may be a competition, but by teaching our contestants that rather than stepping on someone on your way up, you lift each other up. I genuinely believe that people who h ..read more

Our guest today is Audrey Walleser Martin.  Many people are not use to seeing a pageant queen and a firefighter as the same person. The amazing part about being a title holder is the crown is a key to unlock opportunities that would not be available otherwise. In the course of my daily duties I do a lot of public education and awareness. I spend my day working with local, community, county, state and national individuals on safety strategy and policy. When able to put on a crown you are able to educate and bring awareness on a different level. Through parades, PSA's, appearances and non p ..read more

Darcy Castro is our guest today, she is the Winner of the Elite State Pageant for Georgia and 2nd runner up for Elite National.  My advocacy platform is intensely personal.

I know from personal experience, and from reaching out to survey families in the same situation, that the needs of children of parents with a brain tumor have largely gone unrecognized. Thankfully, much effort and resources are pledged to research and patient services, but I am working to ens ..read more
