Fifth Harmony girl-band singer Ally Brooke shares her rocky road in Hollywood and the powerful steps she took to regain her footing. In this special episode of Knot Too Taboo, Gretchen and Slade fall in love with sweet Ally after discovering they have all too much in common. After bestowing Ally with the honorary title of aunt to their baby daughter Skylar, they dig in deep to her new self-help guide, Finding Your Harmony.  Ally retells the horrors she was subjected to in the beginning of her career - from unsavory producers to haters on social media and body shamers, leaving her feeling defeated and broken. Despite her swift rise to fame, she reveals her private misery and the day she hit rock bottom. Once Ally began owning her truth, stopped allowing fear and doubt control her every move, and made personal choices that weren’t always so popular …spoiler alert: she’s saving herself for marriage, she took back her power and healed her soul. While Slade felt this book was the perfect cautionary tale to young artists starting out in the entertainment industry – the book is really for everyone. It provides hope and a powerful reminder to allow your faith to guide you.
