• Facelift Consult, Domestic Disputes and Mold Mayhem | It’s Story Time - 1187

  Today’s episode is pure story time chaos. Picture this: you’re walking in Miami Beach with me, birds chirping, wind blowing, and I’m dodging sewage leaks, spring breakers, and a mold-infested home… all while trying to get to the most important facelift consultation of my life. This one starts as a casual walk-and-talk and spirals into an Uber debacle that includes: ✅ A hotel in meltdown mode (sewage leak and spring break traffic) ✅ Our ongoing mold nightmare and the mental toll of having no home or our belongings ✅ Why losing your home is more disorienting than you’d think ✅ An Uber driver with a full-blown domestic crisis mid-ride ✅ Me… stranded on the freeway… looking like a high-end escort ✅ Why the universe will start working in my favor (yes, I’ve decided) ✅ A sneak peek at my facelift consult—and what kind of results I’m NOT going for Plus, I explain why I don’t want people to whisper “has she had work done?” I want them to know… and ask for the number. And if you’ve ever had one of those months where literally everything goes wrong? This one’s for you. You’re gonna laugh, cringe, and feel a whole lot better about your own chaos. Let’s walk. 🎯Links and Mentions in this Episode: The Health Crisis I Didn’t See Coming (And You Might Miss Too) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-chalene-show-diet-fitness-life-balance/id911042029?i=1000702850641 Check out The Beauty Broker (Melinda Farina) for plastic surgery consults www.thebeautybrokers.com Subscribe for the full facelift consult audio in a future episode http://Chalene.com/TCSpodcast 🎉Win a Free spot to Camp Be More!

• The Health Crisis I Didn’t See Coming (And You Might Miss Too) - 1183

  Feeling exhausted, dealing with brain fog, or noticing unexplained weight gain—even though you're doing all the right things? This episode dives into the surprising root cause behind symptoms often blamed on hormone imbalance or stress. It's something most women overlook, and it could be sabotaging your energy, focus, and sleep. Tune in to uncover what might really be going on beneath the surface—and why your environment could be playing a bigger role than you think. 🎯Join Chalene on Patreon for 7 Days FREE for Ad Free The Chalene Show Episodes PLUS all of the other FUN content not suited for the regular show!!  👉 http://chalene.com/more   👨🏼‍⚕️If In the Miami Area check out Dr. Andrew Levinson at Vitality Health & Wellness https://www.vhw.co/ Test Chalene was given by Dr. Levinson: Mycotoxin Urine Panel    🧪 Top At-Home Mycotoxin Tests: RealTime Labs – realtimelab.com Tests for 16+ mycotoxins, CLIA-certified, doctor-trusted. Great Plains Lab (GPL) – gplmycotox.com 11 key mycotoxins, easy at-home urine test, often used with OAT.  Mosaic Diagnostics – mosaicdx.com Same test as GPL, rebranded. Detailed results + detox bundles.   🏡 What to Know Before a Home Mold Inspection: Avoid free inspections – They often lead to unnecessary (and expensive) remediation offers. Use a certified IEP – Look for an Indoor Environmental Professional, not just a general contractor. Request ERMI or EMMA testing – Dust testing reveals more than air samples alone. Test for mycotoxins – Not just mold spores; mycotoxins are what affect your health. Get a detailed report – It should include spore counts, species, moisture readings, and photos. Separate inspection from remediation – These should be done by different companies. Ask for invasive testing – If there's suspected hidden mold, surface-level checks aren’t enough. Document everything – Especially if you're renting—keep a record of all communication. Watch for red flags – “It’s just mildew” or “We’ll spray with bleach and paint over it” are not acceptable responses. Listen to your body – Symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, or sleep issues could be mold-related.   🎉Come to Camp Be More!!
