I had so much fun on June 8th at the Lone Star Princess Pool Party! We played games, ate pizza, and even had contests to see who could make the biggest splash (I won), or who had the most creative jump (It was a close call!)! I loved spending time with Elle, Kristin, and Caitlin and this was such a great way to kick off our summer! ~ Kathryn Dunn, Miss Frisco 2009

This has been one of my favorite events this year! On Friday, May 22 and Saturday, May 23, I spent my day at the State Special Olympics! I, along with other titleholders, were set up under a tent with a large sign reading “BEAUTY QUEENS,” where we were greeted with smiles, laughter, excitement, and of course the infamous question - “is your crown REAL?!” We took lots of pictures, and signed lots of autographs. In fact, I believe I signed about 400 total! That makes me so proud to know that in just those two days, I impacted the lives of at least 400 people. Aside from meeting and signing autographs for the athletes, I also got to award them their medals. It was such a neat thing to be a part of. Imagine, just as I have been working hard towards attaining my goal at Miss
On Saturday, the athletes and I danced the night away! The competition field had been transformed into a huge dance floor where we danced to everything from the YMCA to the cupid shuffle, and I even taught the athletes how to do the “Soulja Boy!” It was a fun event, and something that I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you Duc, of the Miss Southeast Texas Organization, for setting this up and allowing the titleholders to be a part of such a memorable event! ~Kathryn Dunn, Miss Frisco 2009
This is the entry recently published in the Mental Management Newsletter:
I used to like to think of myself as the ugly duckling. Growing up, I was awkward and bashful. I had very little confidence in my appearance as well as my abilities. If you would have told me ten years ago that someday I would be competing for the title of Miss Texas, I probably would have blushed, then turned and hid behind the protection of one of my parents. Pageants for me back then signified and glorified beauty and talent, assets I believed I did not possessed.
As time has passed, I have come into my own and found faith in myself. I can only attribute that growth to the cultivation from loved ones, who have supported and encouraged me throughout my journey, and to the people who gave me the tools I needed to see all that I was truly capable of. This is where Mental Management comes into play. Upon receiving the title of Miss Plano, I gained the opportunity to go through a Mental Management course as well as receive one-on-one training with Heather Sumlin, who provided not only insight into the pageant world, but also thought provoking questions that challenged the way I thought. Not only did it challenge me, but in a way it changed me. I have learned to stop trying to compare myself to others, to focus on the prowess of my own capabilities, to acknowledge when I don’t do my best, but focus my energy on how to fix it ,and to concentrate and praise myself on my strengths.
The mind is a powerful tool and a key component to success. I know that come July, I will be as prepared as I can be for competition, both physically and mentally. I am excited to be interning with Mental Management and to be able to continually learn and to see how it is impacting others throughout the country, helping them reach their personal and professional goals through products and services. I am a Marketing major with a focus on International Business and will be receiving a Communication minor from Texas A&M University. I would love to find a position in sales upon my graduation in December that will allow me to either travel with a pharmaceutical company or to work with a real estate firm. You may not think either of these positions would correlate to my duties here at Mental Management, however, I know that no matter where my career may take me, my experiences in the office of Mental Management, in addition to the mental training they have provided, will stay with me, allowing me to achieve the success I once thought was never meant for me.

On Friday April 24th, I participated in Barksdale Elementary Reading Ambassador Week. I was excited to read “Purplicious” to half of the second grade, with one of the students being my Lone Star Princess, Marly Koven! It was a wonderful experience to be able to read to the children and then to discuss the importance of literacy and volunteerism along with the duties of Miss Plano. I was very grateful to be invited to this event and to share my passion of books. I think that it is very important that our youth have a strong foundation and understanding of the written word, and I know all of the students at Barksdale are well on their way to success!
