Kyra’s Story

Kyra is a young mother and small business owner (hair and spray tan artist) who will be competing for the title of Miss Indiana USA next year.

“I’ve already learned more in this 13-minute session than I have in 30 minutes with a normal interview coach.”

Following on from the mock interviews I did earlier this month with the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA contestants, I wanted to lean more into the mock interview space and see if I had anything unique to offer. As a coach, I’ve always believed that my client comes first—to put it simply, if I don’t believe I’m the best coach for you, I’ll refer you on to someone else.

Earlier this week, I put out some feelers to our VIP’s and members of our broadcast channel, to see if anyone would be interested in jumping on a free mock interview session. I wanted to get clarity on exactly what a session with me would look like, and how I could absolutely over-deliver on value, given my years of experience in the pageant industry both interviewing and working with hundreds of contestants who’ve competed on the biggest pageant stages in the world.

Why Should You Watch?

You might wonder why anyone would want to watch someone else’s mock interview session. There are two main reasons:

1. To see what a session with me looks like (I guarantee it won’t be like any other traditional pageant coaching session you’ve ever seen before).

2. We can learn so much from watching other people. We might all be unique, but we share many of the same struggles.

Key Ideas/Teaching Points

• The Three Cs: Clarity + Competence + Confidence = Crown

• My job as a coach is to act as a guide, not an authority. I’m here to understand your vision, align with it, and then help you execute on it.

• Immediate video feedback: I record Kyra’s interview answers and play them back to her immediately, so she can see and hear them in real time. This is the key to rapid self-improvement.

• Sell the sizzle, not the steak: we want to hit the judges with emotional and persuasive arguments, not read out a list of our achievements or our resume.

• Practice the questions you find hard, not the ones you find easy. ChatGPT’s voice functionality is amazing for this.

• Non-verbals (body language, tonality, facial expressions etc) are key. It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.
