VIP - VERY IMPRESSIVE PERSON(S)

Today was a special day. Kyle Haggerty, a nationally prominent and highly successful Beauty Pageant Impressario and Coach, Dancer, Movie Star and all around VIP (Very Impressive Person) invited me down to Washington, DC for one of his pageant planning events AND to participate in the filming of the MTV Reality TV Series, MADE for an Episode called Pageant Queen.  I was thrilled to be asked to participate and personally meet THE MAN (and woman BTW) behind too many winning pageant queens to mention.  BUT, let me tell you Kyle's worked with and coached the current Miss America as well having his "girls" just win BOTH the Miss Virginia USA and Virginia Teen USA pageant titles! He and his partner, Kelly Ann Clay (THE WOMAN BEHIND THE MAN) are wonderful. I'm excited to be associated with them and hope to learn a lot more about being a pageant queen from BOTH Mr. Haggerty and Mrs. Clay! Thanks for having me!


Until next time...

Hope I make the final edited version of the show!

Let YOUR Light Shine!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”


Nelson Mandela
 

Do you ever wonder what drives great men and women to achieve their success?  I've thought about it, a lot.  Some people say FEAR is the greatest motivator.  I don't think so. Do you?  I think it's the ability to overcome fear; fear of the unknown or the fear of success that drives great men and women to success.  Join me in abandonding fear in life. Let YOUR light shine.  Celebrate YOUR beauty.  Besides, what's there to be afraid of anyway?
 
Until next time...

ZEST

"Zest is the secret of all beauty. There is no beauty that is attractive without zest." ~ Christian Dior

According to Merriam's On-Line Dictionary, ZEST is an enjoyably exciting quality! There's a lot to be said about the certain JOIE DE VIE (French for JOY OF LIVING) that someone exudes when they're not afraid to be beautiful.


It's probably easier to see than explain ZEST.  So I decided to post a Christian Dior Ad photo representing ZEST, don't you think?   I'm also reposting a Christian Dior's quote I just saw on Fred Wright's Facebook tonight.  Liked it so much thought I'd share it with everyone here!  Fred is the Director of the National Teen All American Pageant and just a wonderful person I admire a lot.  He knows a thing or two about BEAUTY!


Until next time,
