If you believe beauty pageants are antifeminist, superficial, or outdated - we hope to prove you wrong! Elizabeth Tran explores pageants as a launchpad to anything you set your mind to, and opportunities beyond any limiting beliefs. Her 21+ years of pageants changed her life, from speaking on the TEDx stage to dumpster diving on TLC. Thank you Simone of @smariano_art for creating this cover!
