I’m so grateful to have been awarded the “Together for Mental Health Award” at Miss Georgia. My goal has always been to spread the importance of my CSI, and to hopefully one day help my story no longer be one in a million🩵💜

Stay tuned as tonight we crown a new Miss Thomasville and Miss Thomasville’s Teen

“Fit” genuinely means something different for everyone. For me, it means staying disciplined and healthy both mentally and physically❤️

Evening gown night ❤️

Thank you W Keith Pittman with Lasting Impressions Formal Wear and Sherri Hill for helping me make my gown dreams come true. This gown is such a representation of my style and made me feel empowered and confident on stage. I believe evening gown is truly a moment to show the way our inner beauty can shine through our poise and confidence.

If this 16 year old could just see what life looks like now. However, I’m so proud of her. Just going to leave it right there🩵💜

I just finished interview. I got to tell my story, and that’s all I could ever ask for.

Tomorrow, I walk into interview for the job of Miss Georgia.

I sit back and I think of the younger version of myself. She couldn’t see the future. Everything was bleak and dark. It took me years to speak out. I felt immense shame, guilt, and even coldness towards my struggles. However, I held on. Even when I could barely move out of bed, I held on with my mantra: “just keep breathing, Savannah.”

And then at 16 my life would be saved through a pageant. I believe our trajectory can change from a single moment. For me, it was my interview the first time I competed in the Miss Thomasville Scholarship Program I told a story about a friend who was struggling so much. My director later asked me about this story and I felt empowered after a week of self discovery to admit that my friend was me. Later, in a circle we’d all speak about our “why’s.” And with that same director sitting by my side I admitted to every girl that my friend was me. That moment sparked my journey to making a better tomorrow for myself.

Now, I get to compete for the opportunity of Miss Georgia with the honor of being Miss Thomasville. I also get to build a further sisterhood with two girls Miss Greater Atlanta and Macy Taylor-Miss Red Hills that sat in the same circle with me back in 2021 as my life changed forever.

I walk into interview tomorrow for 16 year old me and for the fact that my story is one of a million. We all have the ability to change our part of the world, and for me that is through being the reason at least one person keeps breathing.

Big yay for our day at Cook's Hot Dogs of Columbus! Sisterhood is such an important part of this organization, and I’m so happy I got to spend some time unwinding with my girls before competition.

Stay tuned, interview is tomorrow💜🩵

WOW: everyone’s reaction to Sheldon Smith photography. Miss Georgia Scholarship Organization is so lucky to have them on our team.

Day 2 of rehearsals is in the works so I wanted to highlight a quote that is getting me through this week, “great things never come from comfort zones.” I’ve had a plaque in my room since sixth grade that has this insanely motivating message. Comfort zones are easy. They’re lovely, to be honest. But, to find growth as a person you have to be malleable. To find growth, especially in an amazing organization like , you have to look fear in the face and say “you won’t control me.”

So, to all my fellow MAO girls (both near and far) remember that with growth comes fear. But, when we leave our comfort zone magical things happen.

I am in the last two weeks of my reign and I was sitting back today in full gratefulness. It’s very easy to get caught up in the next big thing, but I’ve been in a constant state of gratitude. The last year as Miss Thomasville has been a DREAM come true, and I’m beyond honored to be pursuing the dream of Miss Georgia under this title. I leave tomorrow morning and I feel at peace. We hope to make you proud, Thomasville🩵

Meet My Belle: Evelyn Taylor🍒❤️
I’m so excited to be bringing my own little sister to Miss Georgia with me. We’re ten years apart, but still best friends. I know she’s going to rock the stage!

Have you ever thought about speaking to the younger version of yourself?

What would you say?
What would you do?
What would you ask?

My personality, let’s put it into nice words… blossomed at a young age. I was loud, performative, and EXTREMELY energetic. My parents quickly realized my personality needed a place to thrive. I made my pageant debut at a year old! And from that point on I knew where my home was. For me, home was never my house, my room, or a person. Home was the stage. Whether it was pageantry, dancing, guitar, singing, or theatre- I felt my 100%, authentic self on the stage performing. However, silly enough the stage wasn’t always legitimate. Sometimes, it was a box in my living room while I made my parents watch me perform an entire musical (I played every character, of course) or my love for being in costume (none of these pictures are from Halloween🫣)

Then, I grew up. The stage stayed a home. Through many avenues and ways. In my darkest moments, performing was my escape. The one place I could go and feel like life was exuberant and lively. I somehow became myself by playing hundreds of different characters. I’ll never be able to explain it, but I felt the most “me” whenever I could entertain a crowd with a song or moving piece of theatre.

And now, I’m about to leave to take on a new stage. The Miss Georgia stage. Competing for this title has been a longstanding dream in my heart, and if I could go tell the little version of myself what she’s doing now, I know she’d be proud. Life hasn’t always been easy, but it is worth it. I’m so glad I found reasons to keep breathing, because I would have left a lot of unfinished dreams behind if not. So, as I take on the next week I remember Her. The little girl who couldn’t quite find her place in the world, so she stepped up onto a stage. With a cupcake dress, and ruffled socks- she found her home.

Meet my Belle: Alaina Gay🌸🩷

Thank you to Talentwolfe for his support of the Miss Georgia Scholarship Organization! I had the privilege of working with him in February and he has such a keen ability to fine tune talent and make you feel confident in your art form. Trina Lynn Pruitt

A little informal, transparent chat with me. Stress is real, anxiety is real, and BOY is imposter syndrome real. I’m hoping this can serve as a subtle reminder to practice gratitude and honor yourself for your hard work. Mental health is truly a practice. I believe in finding routines and regimens for mental AND physical well-being. Practicing gratitude is just as important to me as a gym sesh. I find it is an easy practice that helps me make my mind a happy place to be. #keepbreathing Trina Lynn Pruitt Miss Thomasville Scholarship Program Miss Georgia Scholarship Organization Miss Georgia Tammy Thomas Spires

Life update.

I’m so thankful for the life I’m living. I remember my sophomore year I prayed for the next chapter of my life to be a time of “opportunity and doors opening,” and I can say it truly has been. I’m so excited for everything to come so here’s a little glimpse into my life as a titleholder. --Day in the life pageants.

Strutting down the bricks! Miss Thomasville Scholarship Program Miss Georgia Scholarship Organization Miss Georgia Trina Lynn Pruitt

Falling in love with the process is where the true magic happens. For pageants, it’s about the late nights perfecting your walk, spending hours practicing interview questions, and the dedication to being the best version of yourself. In life to find happiness you must find a pursuit that excites you in the monotonous regimens and in the groundbreaking results. So here’s to falling in love with the process, because that is where transformation occurs!
