Laura and Todd enjoy an afternoon podcast for once with the delightfully open Crystal Garrett, an immensely talented Singer and Actress and former Miss South Carolina. This one gets a little emotional y’all. The trio discuss Crystal's experience growing up as an “army brat,” the struggles young women have with body image (inside and outside of the pageant industry), the benefits of pageants and where there’s still room for improvement. Todd and Crystal bond over their shared experience with Asthma and Asthma Camp and all three of them gush over their support for the American Lung Association (pssst.. a little bird told us the ALA asthma camps are making a come back!). We also hear about Crystal’s time on X-Factor with Simon Cowell, how she was stuck at sea for THREE MONTHS during Covid, speaking out about her Lymphedema and generally making positive change for others. Crystal has been involved with so many great projects, but will make her film debut this September in “Honk for Jesus, Save My Soul.”
