Welcome to the replay of our first ever pageant mock interview session.

In Tuesday’s email I mentioned that we would be experimenting with weekly mock interview sessions. You can join in two ways:

* Pay $19.99 for a single session

* Become a monthly subscriber for $19.99 and attend every weekly session at no additional cost

My goal was to create the most realistic and impactful setting possible:

* You practice under real pressure: answering questions from fellow contestants instead of rehearsing in your head or talking to the mirror. This helps you get used to the same nerves you feel in the interview room.

* You get an instant playback of your answer: right after you finish responding, we replay that exact answer on the call. This lets you see how you look, hear how you sound, and identify specific habits to refine immediately.

* You learn from the judges’ perspective: because you ask questions as well as answer them, you gain a clearer understanding of what judges listen for and how they evaluate contestants.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from interviewing over 350 contestants around the world over the last decade, it’s that the camera does not lie. I look back at my earliest interviews now and they make me cringe. But being forced to watch them while editing is exactly what helped me improve so quickly. When you’re confronted with the truth, progress becomes inevitable.

Enjoy the replay.
