In this meaty, educational episode, Ali takes you through one of the most powerful exercises she does with her private clients: identifying your core values. Because when you truly know your values, you have an anchor that nothing and no one can take from you. You have confidence that comes from within, not from external validation. And you have the most powerful antidote to anyone who tries to shame, judge, or hurt you.

This is the work that has given Ali the clarity to stand on stage, be visible, and receive both praise and criticism, all with an unshakeable sense of who she is.

What We Cover in This Episode

Why knowing your values changes everything When your inner world and outer world are aligned, living out of integrity with yourself becomes impossible. Ali shares how this work protected her in a pivotal moment and how it does the same for her clients every single day.

Values as your antidote When someone throws criticism, judgment, or hate your way, your values are the truth that makes their poison dissolve. Ali even uses them to identify why something is hurting, so she can let it go and move on.

Ali's own core values Grit. Grace. Gratitude. Growth. Genuine. Generosity. All beginning with G (because Ali loves alliteration and words are her love language). She walks you through how she arrived at each one, and why Grace was the newest addition and the one she still has to consciously remember.

The values discovery exercise — step by step

1. Grab a blank sheet of paper and write down everything you value in life. Fill the whole page. Don't edit yourself.
2. Ask yourself: When did I feel really, really good about myself? Why? Who was I being? What was I honouring?
3. Ask yourself: When did I feel really hurt or sad? What values were stepped on?
4. Start grouping your words — find the one word that holds all the others for you.
5. Make your list memorable. Alliteration, acronyms, whatever helps you know them off the top of your head.

Living the practice Over the next week, witness yourself. When you feel good, which values are you honouring? When you feel off, which ones have been stepped on? This is a practice, not a one-time exercise. Keep coming back to it.
