Steve Harvey Talk about a full-circle moment! ❤️

I was scrolling Facebook tonight when I got tagged in a post from our friend/former publicist and I couldn't believe what I was seeing...

Steve Harvey had reposted Timmy's Little Big Shots appearance just ONE DAY AGO! 🤯

Watching this brought back so many incredible memories. That experience helped shape Timmy's confidence, professionalism, and love for performing.

Today, those same experiences inspire the work we do through Beyond The Runway™.

That's exactly why we created BTR.
We want more young people to have opportunities that help them discover their confidence, find their voice, and gain real-world experience—whether it's on stage, on camera, behind a microphone, or simply learning to believe in themselves.

Every big dream starts with one opportunity.

Today, Timmy is helping mentor the next generation through Beyond The Runway, and I couldn't be prouder of the young man he's become.

Be Confident.
Be Creative.
Be You.

🎬 CLASS IS IN SESSION... and we're officially READY! 🎉

After months of planning, creating, refining, and dreaming, I'm so excited to officially open enrollment for Ready. Set. Slate!™—our signature acting and audition workshop through Beyond The Runway!

This isn't just another class. It's a place where young actors and models build confidence, learn industry skills, practice on camera, and prepare for real opportunities in a fun, encouraging environment.

✨ Build confidence.
🎭 Master auditions.
🎬 Prepare for real opportunities.

Whether your child is just getting started or ready to sharpen their skills, Ready. Set. Slate!™ is designed to help them take the next step.

📣 Enrollment is now open! Spaces are limited to ensure every child receives personalized attention.

🎬 Lights. Camera. Confidence.

At Beyond The Runway, we're not just teaching kids how to perform—we're creating opportunities for them to experience what it's feels like to be on set.

From hair and makeup to cameras rolling, learning their marks, following direction, and getting comfortable in front of the camera, every production gives our kids hands-on experience in a fun, encouraging environment.

Our latest project? ! 💕👑

The kids had an amazing time bringing the campaign to life, and we loved watching them grow more confident with every take.

A special shout-out to Timmy, who did a fantastic job stepping into the director's role, and to newcomer Trinity, who jumped right in as our salon apprentice. They both were awesome!

And because no production is complete without a little behind-the-scenes comedy... 🤣
While setting up, one of our sweet residents, Debbie, decided she needed the pink robes! We spent nearly 30 minutes searching for them before finally reviewing the security footage... only to discover Debbie had quietly relocated the robes in another resident's room. When I asked her to help me find them she told me no, because SHE needed them! 😂😂😂

Moments like these remind us that the best memories aren't always in the script.

This is what Beyond The Runway is all about—learning, laughing, creating, and giving kids experiences they'll never forget.

💛 Be Confident.
🖤 Be Creative.
✨ Be You.
