This episode is a call to examine what’s truly sitting on the altar of your heart. We dive into the story of Gideon in Judges 6.

What idols do you have? The need for control, perfection, people-pleasing or fear? Before He brings victory on the outside, He wants to restore peace on the inside.

Learn how to find victory in Christ!

Listen now and be encouraged to rebuild your altar for Him.

This last week has been heavy with loss - locally, nationally, and personally. From tragic accidents in our communities, to the passing of leaders and friends, grief feels close and undeniable. In today’s episode, I open my heart and why I’ve been led to create A Queen’s Gathering - an online prayer room for pageant queens and daughters of the King to come together in prayer and presence.

Join me as we pause, breathe, and lift our hearts to the Lord through prayer. May this episode bring you comfort and hope.

For where two or three are gathered in My name, there am I with them. - Matthew 18:20

✨ A Queen’s Gathering will be held live on:

Tuesday, September 30th at 8 PM EST. Come as you are. There will be no recording, so I encourage you to be there in the moment. For a link to the prayer room, email me at julia@juliachang.net. If you're unable to attend, but would like to be in the know for possible future prayer rooms, please also email me.

Are you pushing yourself so hard in pageant prep that you’re running on empty? The late nights, the workouts, the strict meal plans — it can feel like if you let up for even one moment, you’ll fall behind. But here’s the truth, queen: God never designed discipline to lead you into burnout.

In this episode of the Crowned in Confidence podcast, I share how to build a pageant-ready physique through Kingdom discipline partnered with grace. You’ll learn how to train, fuel, and prepare your body without losing your peace, joy, or health along the way.

Do you ever feel like you have to dim your light to fit in? Maybe you've stayed silent about your faith, filtered your voice, or felt the pressure to perform for applause. But sis, you weren’t made to hide—you were made to shine.

In this powerful and faith-filled episode, I remind you that your divine identity as a daughter of the King and calls you to rise and reflect the light of Christ. Whether you’re on the pageant stage, in your career, or simply showing up on social media—your presence can point people to Jesus.

You’ll learn how to shine boldly, glorify God with your influence, and walk confidently in the calling He placed on your life.

In today’s episode, I’m getting real about the pressures Christian pageant queens face—to conform, to stay quiet, to follow trends that don't align with truth. I share how God led me step-by-step, even when I didn’t feel “enough” by cultural standards… and how He’s calling YOU to stand out for Him.

You don’t need the world’s applause when Heaven’s already crowned you with purpose.

In this powerful episode, we're going beyond the glitz and glam to ask the real question: Who are you without the crown, the sash, and the spotlight? If your confidence has been tied to your titles, this is your invitation to root your identity in Christ—not in pageant placements.

Whether you’re walking the runway or sitting in sweatpants, your worth doesn’t waver.
It’s time to trade performance for purpose and stand confidently in the truth:
💖 You were crowned by the King before you ever competed.

In this episode, I unpack a faith‑rooted framework for food and fitness—because when your body is God’s temple, every bite and every rep becomes an act of worship. Learn how to shift from performance‑based striving to joyful stewardship, moderation, and strength through Christ, so you can step on stage with lasting confidence and peace.

In this episode, we explore the true essence of royalty through the lens of Christ’s humility. Drawing from Philippians 2:3–8 and Proverbs 15:33, you'll learn to trade worldly honor for a servant’s heart. Learn three practical ways to serve sponsors, your pageant organization, and your community—and discover how living out humility opens unexpected doors and deepens relationships.

What happens when you give your all—pray, prepare, and show up in full obedience, but the outcome doesn’t match the effort?

In this episode, I share a moment from my own pageant journey when I didn’t make the Top 15… and how that unexpected “no” became a setup for something greater.

We’ll talk about what favor really means from a Kingdom perspective and why God’s “yes” doesn’t always come in the form of a crown.

In this episode of Crowned in Confidence, you'll explore the tension between striving to perform perfectly on the pageant stage and finding true rest in obeying God’s voice. Drawing from my own journey from busyness to blessed peace, I share an honest story from my first pageant, powerful scripture reminders, and three practical steps you can take today to trade perfectionism for peace.

What if your pageant journey isn’t just about the crown… but a deeper calling?

This isn’t just about walking a stage - it’s about walking in obedience. Because when God calls you, He equips you.
