Real Talk with Allison Ellsworth, Co-Founder of Poppi

Victoria here, Girlboss’ executive editor. 👋

I’m going to go out on a limb and guess you’ve got poppi in your fridge—or you’ve at least cracked open a can. 🥤 Well, today you’re meeting the woman behind the better-for-you soda brand and the career lessons she swears by: embrace embarrassment, say no to perfection, and pick up the phone if you actually want to make sh*t happen.

Other stuff the Girlboss team is yapping about on Slack:

• Currently fuming over the U.S. men’s hockey team.

• Reese Witherspoon doesn’t want you to follow your dreams. Do this instead.

• The least your phone plan can do is keep up with your back-to-back meetings.*

💼 Job of the day: We squealed when we saw this one on LinkedIn. BAGGU is hiring a Social Media Manager. Getting paid to post about cute bags all day? The dream.
