In Tuesday’s email, I shared my plans for a free pageant interview training built from the nearly 400 interviews I’ve done over the past decade.

If you haven’t already, take two minutes to help shape that training by completing this short survey:

Introducing Weekly Mock Interview Practice (Paid Members Only)

The free training will cover interview fundamentals, but many of you have asked for more hands-on practice — a space to build confidence under real interview pressure.

That’s why I’m launching weekly mock interview sessions for our paid members on a trial basis. If you find them valuable, we’ll keep going.

You can:

* Join live online and practice in real time, or

* Send in a short 2–3-minute video answering a couple of interview questions to be reviewed during the call (you’ll see my feedback in the replay).

During these sessions, you’ll also get to observe other contestants and analyze their answers from a judge’s point of view.

Learning what stands out, what feels authentic, and how judges perceive confidence gives you insight most contestants never get — and it dramatically sharpens your own performance.

First Session (Trial Run)

* Thursday 13 November – 8 p.m. EST

* 7 p.m. CST | 6 p.m. MST | 5 p.m. PST

* Friday 14 November – 12 p.m. AEDT (Sydney)

* Friday 14 November – 1 a.m. GMT (UK)

If you’d like to attend live, reply to this email and I’ll send you the details.

If the time doesn’t suit, send me your recorded answers before the session — you’ll still be part of the call replay and feedback.

Join the Paid Membership

Access to these sessions is included with your $19.99 USD/month membership (cancel anytime). That’s up to four or five live mocks each month for less than the cost of one private session ($197).

Why This Matters

Real improvement happens when you practice under pressure. These weekly sessions are your chance to simulate the real interview room, learn what judges notice, and refine your answers until they feel effortless.

See you at our first mock — let’s start building interview confidence before 2026 even begins.
