Chalene is unapologetically herself in this in-depth interview, giving listeners a refreshing viewpoint on navigating challenging times, dealing with change, and finding what you love.

I’ve been following Chalene for a few years and while walking home one day, I saw her and her husband sitting outside at a restaurant.

Originally I walked by, but then decided to go back up and share how much of an impact her work has had on me. I did this because I always love when followers come up and share similar messages.

This led to them coming over to our house that week for drinks and some deep conversations.

Chalene was funny, gracious, and was giving me tips on my social media. I asked if she would come on the podcast (thinking I had no shot), but she imediately said yes.

It was a great reminder for me to share to those who impact my life and never be scared of asking.
