Miss America 2023 Grace Stanke Shares Message on Confidence
knows a thing or two about confidence.
Fresh from trading in her Miss Wisconsin sash for the Miss America Crown, the 20-year-old got candid about how she practices self-love while embracing all sides of herself—as a nuclear engineering student, classic violinist, water skier and pageant winner sharing just when she feels"I think every moment of every day when I am just living my best life," Grace exclusively told E! News.
Meanwhile, when it comes to sharing her number once piece of advice for those sharing the same dreams and aspirations as her, the University of Wisconsin student encourages them to stand tall—high heels and all."Don't be afraid to flip your hair," she explained. "Smile, stand up tall. I'm 5'11. I'm a physically large human being and I wear heels and you can do it too. There's something about wearing heels.
And embracing that authenticity is key. As she continued, "100 percent for me, it's heels but for other individuals it might not be and that's okay—as long as you are 100 percent you." Grace—who rocked a high pony throughout the competition—shared her secret when it comes to great hair and, once again, she attributed that to confidence and owning all parts of yourself—even those you may not love.
