In 2023, Miles competed in the 23rd season of The Voice. In the blind auditions, she sang "The One That Got Away" by Katy Perry. Two of the four coaches, Kelly Clarkson and Niall Horan, turned their chairs for her, while Chance the Rapper and Blake Shelton refrained.^[7] She chose to join Team Niall. While competing, Miles shared in an interview with People that her experience on the show was "emotionally draining and scary", while it was "the best experience of her life".^[8] Her finale performance of "Nothing Compares 2 U" by Sinéad O'Connor received a positive reception online.^[6]

Miles went on to win the season on May 23, 2023. Before Miles was announced as winner of the season, host Carson Daly remarked that the winner of the season, which was revealed to be Miles soon after, had the slimmest margin of victory in all twenty-three seasons of the show.^[9] Her win was seen by some outlets as "unexpected" (with even Miles herself expressing shock at her win), as it was widely expected that her closest competitor, runner-up Grace West, from Blake Shelton's team, would win as Shelton's tenth and final victory.^[10] Ultimately, Miles won US$100,000 and a record deal with Republic Records, a label owned by Universal Music Group.^[11]
