If there’s anyone who personifies the words “empower women, inspire others, uplift everyone,” it’s Diana Meyer. We’re proud to feature her in our September issue!
She’s not only upheld the motto of United States of America Pageants, she’s imbued them into everything she does as the reigning United States of America’s Mrs.
“Pageantry is a confidence competition,” Diana explains. “To be confident, you have to step boldly into your full potential. Pageantry encourages you to do that.”
“Pageantry is so much more than what you look like or what you do on stage. Preparation requires you to be successful on that stage, and even after you walk off that stage. Being prepared is extremely crucial to building professional success in pageantry, but in life. These women who walk across that stage doctors, they’re teachers, they’re mothers, they’re daughters, they’re lawyers, they’re veterinarians, and the best thing about competing and pageantry is being able to be surrounded by these beautiful powerful like-minded women at the same stage as life as you and you can’t get that anywhere else.”
Before she was the national title holder, Diana was the United States of America’s Mrs. New Jersey. She’d moved to New Jersey from upstate New York as her husband is in the Army and stationed at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.
“After all those years of competing in New York, it makes sense that I’m representing the state that meant so much to my grandfather, becoming a national title holder in the state that meant so much to my grandfather. They never met, but I truly believe my husband was a gift from my grandfather. I feel so proud that I was able to represent New Jersey on that national stage and bring home that national title and be the first one to do it from the state of New Jersey. I believe that it was destiny that it was right here in New Jersey, all because of my grandfather.”
Empowering women, inspiring others, uplifting everyone, all while honoring family? That’s called leaving a lasting legacy.
