As a graduate of Whitworth University, former elementary school teacher and high school cheer coach, Deidra Murphy turned her love of educating others and keen sense of style into a thriving image consulting, personal styling, and pageant coaching business called Style by Deidra. In addition to her styling business, Deidra and her husband, Dr. Chris Murphy, also own Newedge Family Chiropractic Clinic – the Columbia Basin’s largest holistic health and wellness center.

 

Platform: Several years ago, Deidra was depressed, 50 pounds overweight, sleep deprived and ready to crack. She was miserable with thoughts of ending it all after years of infertility and hormone imbalances led her to develop severe anxiety, mental health issues, and debilitating insomnia. One in three Americans struggle with some form of insomnia, and Deidra has made it her mission to help others overcome these obstacles through the natural methods she discovered that saved her life. These methods include nightly sleep routines, chiropractic care, regular mental health therapy and even hypnotherapy, plus the Five Foundations of holistic health and wellness. Deidra regularly teaches this essential wellness information at workshops throughout the state, her podcast, utilizes social media, and partners with traditional media outlets.  In addition to teaching, Deidra has turned this passion project into creating her Natural Sleep Kits – kits that contain her favorite tools to help develop regular nightly routines for great sleep – which she has been distributing at shelters and events throughout Washington. Her goal is to get over one thousand kits into shelters and crisis centers across the state.

 

Married for 11 years, Deidra and Chris have a 3 year-old talkative son and a loveable Chiahuahua named Tinkerbell.  The Murphy family calls Kennewick, Washington home. With an insatiable love for motherhood, traveling, cooking, working out, all things style & beauty, and dancing like nobody's watching, Deidra is thrilled to be United States of America’s Mrs. Washington 2025.
