Let's talk about breaking stereotypes, embracing confidence, and proving that size has nothing to do with success!
In this episode of Sash & Soul, I'm sitting down with the reigning Universal Petite queens - four inspiring women who are using their platforms to empower others and redefine beauty standards. We're getting real about pageantry, self-doubt, and what it means to be fearlessly authentic in a world that often tells us we're "too little" to take up space.
