Mrs. Colorado®

“If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you

Dani Holliday – Mrs. Colorado 2023

I am humbled to hold the Mrs. Colorado like the incredible women before me have held.

I am honored to represent our incredible, and my home state, Colorado.

I am of Italian heritage with a large family.

I am the daughter of 2 teachers, both decedents of farmers; they gave me a love for education, but a horrible knack to grow anything.

I am a sister to a brother and sister-in-law plus aunt to their 3 girls that I miss from being 1,800+ miles away.

I am a wife to Andre, 22 years my senior; where a young at heart and old soul fell in love 11 years ago never seeing age, we melted 2 generations and 2 races into 1.

I am a Colorado native but do not ski.

I am a live in leggings, gym every day, but loves heels pageant girl who competed 5 years, 2 of which

placed 1RU, to capture the title of Mrs. Colorado.

I am cheering for you- it’s time for you to join the sisterhood, sign up for the 2024 pageant soon!

I am Dani Holliday.

Congratulations to Dani Holliday the newly crowned Mrs. Colorado® 2023. Dani was crowned on April 8, 2023 at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House.


I am a bonus-mom to Jai, Morgan, Jhazlynn and Charlie; and bonus-gma to I’Nali, Sofia, Zy and Kai.

I am an IVF-momma to a 2-year-old young boy, AJ; who is our blessed miracle.

I am an embaby-momma to 5 little snowflakes, faced with the difficult decisions on our next step of family building.

I am a fur-mom to 1 dog, Rugby; still grieving the loss of our other fur-baby Brody last year to cancer.

I am a work-from-home mom who loves being able to watch AJ grow while also growing myself at the same time.

I am an (in)fertility advocate working with Resolve, The National Infertility Association, and Colorado

Fertility Advocates aiming to continue furthering family-building options for all.

I am “Tumblina”, a nickname that my world of gymnastics gave me; the gym was my sanctuary where it taught me life lessons and left me with eternal scars.

I am opioid sober and have been for 6 years; with 11 surgeries in 13 years my way of coping with the physical, mental, and emotional pain was through a little white pill every 4-6 hours.

I am a backward cereal-eating, donut-loving give me breakfast all day person.
