3 Value Bombs
1) There’s no one way to achieve success, and there’s no one way to find happiness. There are so many paths to take. You just have to find the right one for you.
2) Being more authentic and vulnerable is a better way to build a much stronger and more connected team.
3) The messy truth of it all is that success can be great, but then, how are you taking care of yourself and your personal life?

Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: The Messy Truth
[1:15] – Ally shares something that she believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.
- There is a way to work smarter, not harder, and still be able to have a life and enjoy it.
[2:20] – The messy truth.
- With being driven, your interests tend to move at a million miles an hour. We don’t stop and enjoy the journey.
- The messy truth of it all is that success can be great, but then, how are you taking care of yourself and your personal life?
[3:54] – Striking a balance between work and personal life.
- There’ a misconception that we can do it all, but we can’t do it all in one day. Thereare days that you get a lot done, but you miss your kid’s game.
- We need to give ourselves permission to let ourselves off the hook a little bit.
[5:23] – The early days of DryBar.
- There’s always room to improve. If you’re listening to what people are telling you, it’s going to be helpful.
- Surround yourself with people giving you the truth, not the ‘Yes’ people.
- The feedback you get from one person informs a lot

[10:38] – Ally’s advise on taking risks to follow your passion.
- Not everybody is cutout for entrepreneurship. You have to be ok with losing it all, falling on your face, and failing.
- For an entrepreneur, if you just can’t stop thinking about it, then you must do it.
- Entrepreneurs get caught up in getting it perfect before starting.
- Don’t let ‘Perfect’ get in the way of progress.
- If you don’t just start and figure it out as you go, you never will.
[13:13] – The lessons Ally learned about vulnerability.
- Vulnerability is a superpower. If you can show that you don’t know all the answers and you can’t do everything on your own, it allows people to feel connected to you.
- Don’t be afraid to not look good if you don’t know the answer.
- Being more authentic and vulnerable is a better way to build a much stronger and more connected team.
[15:33] – The reason why Ally wrote her second book, The Messy Truth.
- It’s important to share the message and tell the full story. It’s full of things that worked and didn’t work.
- Opening up about personal things makes people feel that they are not alone. You can have all the success and still have bad situations.
[18:01] – Alli’s key takeaway and call to action.
- There’s no one way to achieve success, and there’s no one way to find happiness. There are so many paths to take. You just have to find the right one for you.
- Follow the joy and what makes you happy.
