What if your imperfections were your superpower? [New Podcast Episode]


Hey Reader,

What if the very things you see as imperfections were actually your greatest strengths?

In this week’s episode of Beyond the Bestseller, I sit down with Ally Dalsimer, author of It’s Okay Not to Be Fabulous Every Day, to talk about how her private reflections for her children blossomed into a published book and a powerful message for the world.

Ally’s journey is one of healing, resilience, and authenticity. She opens up about the loss and self-discovery that shaped her story and how writing became the spark for her new chapter as an author and speaker.

One of my favorite moments is when Ally reminds us: “You don’t have to be fabulous every day, you just have to be you.”

If you’ve ever felt the pressure to “have it all together,” this episode is your permission slip to drop the expectations and choose joy on your own terms. I hope Ally’s story inspires you to see your imperfections in a whole new light!

Cheers,
Kelly
