Danette Haag is an inspiring woman whose life is a testament to resilience, faith, and courage. Her expertise, as a speaker, author, and mindset coach, is rooted in her own powerful story of surviving a severe burn injury from a house explosion as a child and her journey of healing both inside and out.

Danette has been honored with the 2019 Woman of Courage Award in Colorado and proudly holds the prestigious title of Mrs. Colorado 2021. She is the first severely scarred woman to win a state beauty pageant title – she’s the first but hopes she’s not the last. Danette’s mission is clear: to inspire others to see their own incredible value by sharing all she has learned from walking with courage, healing her soul, and redefining her beauty. Danette is ‘Beauty From Ashes’ and believes no one needs to get stuck behind any life scar.
