We are able to connect with people through sharing stories and understanding where someone else came from based on what they\u2019ve experienced.

Too many details can get confusing, and too little details can be boring. The details should enhance the point of the story and not distract from the main idea. Good stories leave the listener with a knowledge nugget that inspires them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #ff7878; font-weight: bold;\">Here\u2019s the process to creating a great story:<\/h4>\n<p>+ Consider a moment that changed you \u2013 look for big shifts in thinking and action<br \/>+ Why do you want to tell this story (make it about them, not you) \u2013 that\u2019s your knowledge nugget\/take-away\/main point<br \/>+ Chronological ingredients \u2013 beginning, middle, end<br \/>+ Cut out the fat \u2013 boring details<br \/>+ Add some spice for flavor \u2013 emotional details (personal attributes, values, characteristics) The JUICE!<br \/>+ Let it marinate for just enough time<br \/>+ Practice the recipe to see if you get your listener to the knowledge nugget.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRO TIP:<\/strong> put the knowledge nugget on your factsheet in an interesting way so that you encourage the judges to ask you a question that will set you up to answer with your awesomely thought-out story so they know you, like you, and trust you.<\/p>\n<p><em>That, ladies is how you win a pageant!<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Contact Information<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/alyciadarby\">@AlyciaDarby<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/winapageant\">WinAPageant Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>For more great pageant training, enroll in the&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/freepageantcourse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Free Pageant Course<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/freepageantcourse.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Free-Pageant-Course-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Free-Pageant-Course-1.png 700w, https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Free-Pageant-Course-1-300x129.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1464\" src=\"https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Featured-Image-Template-1-remaining-07-300x187.jpg\" alt=\"featured-image-template-1-remaining-07\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Featured-Image-Template-1-remaining-07-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/winapageant.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Featured-Image-Template-1-remaining-07.jpg 767w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I believe in a pageant interview, you don\u2019t need to know the questions as long as you know the answers.
