#301 Madison Hunt

International United Miss Tennessee

Each week, I share no-fluff pageant coaching to help you lead, speak, and leave a legacy. With 300+ interviews and coaching across Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss America, this isn’t theory—it’s what works.


About Madison

Madison Hunt is a 23-year-old licensed aesthetician and professional hair and makeup artist based in Lawrenceburg, Tennessee. She launched her beauty business at just 18 years old, driven by a passion for helping women feel confident in their own skin. Beyond the glam, Madison is the proud titleholder of International United Miss Tennessee and the founder of Crowned for Change, a mental health advocacy initiative dedicated to ending the stigma—especially within the pageant community. Having personally battled anxiety and PTSD after a traumatic childhood before being adopted at 2 years old and a life-changing ATV accident at age 12, Madison uses her platform to empower others through vulnerability, sisterhood, and storytelling.
