Hey guys! Last weekend was filled back-to-back with exciting things :) Saturday I set out for Overland Park, KS right after my track meet ended. That night, I visited my awesome hair sponsor, Pinkie Couture. Owner James Pillatzke treated me to some highlights and a haircut, which looks awesome!! My locks feel so healthy now :) thank you James!!
Sunday was the start of my first Vanbros boot camp, and every Vanbros teen & miss was there—it was so nice having everyone together in one place! This boot camp was entitled “Fearlessly Me!”, and CEO, Motivational Speaker & Certified Life Coach of Fearlessly Me!, Daryl Woods, was there all weekend to work with us. Even though we started our day at 8 am and ended at 5 pm, it felt much shorter—Daryl was incredible to work with. From sharing life experiences and sketches of what our future tattoos would look like (these were interesting, lol!) to hot topic drill-down sessions, I loved everything about this weekend.
Daryl said a few things which stood out to me. Number one: being at ease with ourselves helps others be at ease with us. Number two: speak to be heard. Number three: get out of your own world!!!!!
I loved the idea that you must see the “bigger picture”. Being able to relate to others makes you approachable, worldly knowledgeable and charismatic. Thank you to Mr. Woods for providing us ladies with such an inspirational & insightful weekend. I know this will help me not only at Miss Teen USA, but my life as well.
Sunday night, my mom & I went out for some Sushi with Mary-Kate Hartley (Miss Arkansas Teen USA) & her grandma. Then we indulged in some frozen yogurt at Orange Leaf :)
After Monday’s morning session of “Fearlessly Me!” my fabulous director John Vannatta and I traveled to Sassy Chic where Ashley Litton had designed numerous dresses for me. We picked my Miss Teen USA gown, which is AMAZING! Miss Danielle Bounds of Sassy Chic—it was lovely seeing you!! Ashley—I would not have dreamed up anything more beautiful than what you have designed for me. I cannot wait to wear it this July. Thank you for being such a great supporter & sponsor of the Miss Missouri USA & Miss Missouri Teen USA programs, we love you!Thank you to John & Jason Vannatta for a wonderful weekend. I love you guys!
