We would like to thank you for supporting Trista Pashel in this year's competition. Your participation made a huge impact for Children’s Miracle Network® and their mission to provide life-saving care and improve the health of children across the country.

What is the most rewarding part of being a mom?

Knowing a raising a kind, open minded, fiercely loving individual who has empathy and compassion for others. My goal as a mom is to raise a happy, healthy, kind human who has a strong sense of self!

What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?

The big lesson was that my child being happy and healthy is more important than what others may think or say. Being a single mom tends to come with judgement and criticism but I block that out and make my child the priority, always! It’s hard though because mom guilt is real!

What would you do with $20,000?

Take my family on an awesome vacation and put the rest in her college fund!
