Join us as we sit down with Moraya Wilson, Miss Universe Australia 2023 and second-runner up at the 2023 Miss Universe pageant, for an intimate look behind the glamour. From the runway lights to real-life struggles, Moraya opens up about growth, identity and chasing big dreams.
We go beyond the crown — talking about her style inspo, how she balanced life after the crown. We follow her move to New York: the culture shock, what modelling is really like overseas, and how she stays grounded far from home.
Expect raw honesty on dealing with social-media pressure, navigating Tall Poppy Syndrome Back Home vs the US, handling reinvention, and redefining success — all while staying true to yourself.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens after the crown, or what it takes to pivot from pageant queen to model to global mover, this one’s for you.
New episodes drop every Thursday so be sure to follow us on all our handles @smilethemakeoverscop to stay in the loop. 👄
