Episode Synopsis

If you’ve ever walked off stage wondering why her and not me, this episode is your lifeline. In this honest, no-fluff conversation, Pageant Masterclass host Ashley Williams Allen sits down with former Miss South Carolina Jada Samuel—who lost four times before finally winning the crown. Jada shares why her biggest mistake at Miss America wasn’t on stage—it was in her head. And it’s the same mindset trap most contestants fall into without realizing it. In this episode Jada and Ashley will give their expert advice on every aspect of pageantry - from your pageant application to nailing your on-stage question.
