A celebrity family feud blows up online and suddenly everyone has a take. Chalene Johnson breaks down what really happened when Brooklyn Beckham publicly accused David Beckham and Victoria Beckham of control, manipulation, and choosing brand over family. But this episode is not about gossip or picking sides. It digs into why this story feels so familiar to so many families, especially when adult children set boundaries and parents are caught off guard. At its core, this is about power, identity, and what happens when private family pain becomes public.

A viral Instagram account that looks almost too perfect sparks a much bigger conversation about how easily trust can be manipulated online. Chalene unpacks fake influencers, AI generated bodies, cloned voices, and deepfake doctors that appear completely real while quietly profiting from credibility. This is not a tech tutorial and it is not fear driven. It is an honest look at how fast AI is changing what we see online, who gets our attention, and who we believe is real.

Charlie Javice was the startup world's new golden girl until a single email exposed everything. What began as a story about ambition, innovation, and a $175 million payday unraveled into one of the most unbelievable legal showdowns in tech. This isn't just about fraud it's about pretty privilege, hype, identity, and what happens when a Fortune 500 company gets lazy when the smart, pretty, believable, equity-driven Gen Z girl walks in the room. JP Morgan could have avoided a multi-million dollar error had they sent just one email.   🔥Join Chalene on Patreon for all the content she can not share on the regular show before the price goes up!  👉 http://chalene.com/more   🎉Show Sponsors: Thank you to our Sponsor!!!

Tech updates, new systems, and all those "this is supposed to make your life easier" moments start to feel like too much and lead into a much bigger conversation. From outsourcing tech overwhelm to watching parents wrestle with apps and platforms that feel anything but intuitive, this discussion connects everyday frustration to deeper shifts around AI, social media, and trust. Chalene breaks down why long-form content feels calmer, why endless scrolling leaves the brain fried, and why younger generations are already pushing back by unplugging. It's not anti-technology or fear-driven, but it is a grounded reality check on why more innovation doesn't automatically equal more peace.   🔥 Join Chalene on Patreon for all the content she can not share on the regular show before the price goes up!  👉 http://chalene.com/more   🧑‍⚕️ Book your virtual visit today with MIDI Health!

What starts as one of Chalene's life updates quickly turns into one of those conversations that just keeps going and gets way deeper than expected. The episode wanders through identity, aging, beauty, and purpose, and calls out the idea that wanting to feel good in your body is somehow shallow. It gets into neuroaesthetics in a very real, easy to understand way and why things like makeup, grooming, movement, and even your surroundings can seriously affect mood, stress, and mental clarity. Along the way, there are post holiday realizations, thoughts on generational differences around trauma and communication, aging and mobility, long term care realities, and the pressure so many women feel to always be doing more to prove they matter. It's casual, honest, occasionally funny, and feels like one of those conversations that sticks with you after it's over.   🔥 Join Chalene on Patreon for all the content she can not share on the regular show before the price goes up!  👉 http://chalene.com/more   💄 Join Chalene LIVE for 5 INSTANT Beauty Hacks on Sunday, January 11th at 8pm Eastern | 5pm Pacific Sign Up at  http://chalene.com/hacks     💋 Check out the Instagram reel showing the half and half makeup technique comparison https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTLiZ2iEUFx/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==     🤓 What You Will Learn Why feeling put together can actually calm your brain How beauty routines and self care are about alignment, not insecurity Why movement matters more than age when it comes to looking young How family history and unspoken stuff shows up later in relationships The link between purpose, pressure, and happiness as we age What no one talks about with long term care planning Why doing less can sometimes feel a whole lot better     🎉 Show Sponsors: Organifi!!!

Listen to the full 42 min Between Friends episode. Go Directly to this Patreon Episode "Stop the Insanity | What Really Happened to Susan Powter" https://www.patreon.com/posts/stop-insanity-to-147273225     Chalene Johnson sits down with her BFF, trauma therapist Dr. Mcayla Sarno, after watching a documentary that starts out nostalgic and quickly gets unsettling. It focuses on Susan Powter, the woman behind "Stop the Insanity," who was everywhere in the 90s and then suddenly disappeared. What seems like a fun throwback turns into a deeper conversation about fame, trust, money, mental health, and identity when success vanishes. They unpack what feels confusing and unfinished and ask the questions the documentary avoids. This isn't about tearing anyone down, and it's absolutely not a diagnosis.   This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon.

In Part 3 of Chalene Johnson's Origin Story she picks up in college and follows the unexpected, very unplanned love story between Chalene and Bret, from a chance meeting at a Michigan State club to building a marriage, a family, and a business from nothing. It is funny, honest, and deeply personal, pulling back the curtain on early ambition, financial stress, identity shifts, and the growing pains that come with building a life together before you know what you're doing. This episode is less about success and more about the messy middle that most people never talk about.

In Part 2 of Chalene Johnson's origin story, things get heavier, messier, and way more revealing. This episode dives into the moment money stopped being abstract and became emotional, personal, and tied to identity at a very young age. From carrying financial responsibility as a kid, to learning how praise, hustle, and ego quietly fused together, this episode explains how independence can become both a superpower and a trap. What starts as resourcefulness turns into pressure, risk, betrayal, and a series of decisions that shaped how Chalene viewed work, worth, and safety long before fame or fitness. And just when everything finally seems to be clicking into place, the story cuts off right as Bret enters the picture and the real complications begin. This is Part 2 of Chalene's origin story.

If December feels like too much and everyone seems to expect you to hold it all together, this episode is the permission slip women have been waiting for. Chalene breaks down the invisible load so many women carry during the holidays, from money stress and body image to resentment in relationships and pressure to make everything perfect. She shares real messages from listeners, stories from her own circle, and why social media comparisons and unrealistic expectations make December feel extra heavy. Then she walks you through a powerful pen and paper exercise to separate what you can control from what you can let go of, and shares surprising new research on one simple habit that can lift anxiety and depression fast. If you have ever felt secretly tapped out, overwhelmed, or quietly angry at everyone around you this month, this conversation will help you release some of that weight and breathe again.   🔥Join Chalene on Patreon  for all the "age-affirming" surgery Updates  👉 http://chalene.com/more   🎉Camp Be More 2026!!
