The Chalene Show | Diet, Fitness & Life Balance

Today, Chalene sits down with fellow podcast host, Cathy Heller (Don’t Keep Your Day Job). Cathy is a singer / songwriter, mother of 3 young girls and has figured out how to create the life and career of her dreams. You'll hear what it takes to make a living (and then some!) at something that's considered, perhaps, unconventional WHILE showing up as a great and present mom! Get ready to be super inspired and crazy educated  — with your energy levels through the roof — after listening to this one!

Today’s keeping-it-real episode is inspired by a recent thought provoking and, perhaps, controversial post from Chalene’s Instagram Stories.

If you're a parent and looking to live an all-around better quality life, this show is a MUST-LISTEN!  

Yesterday, Chalene was prompted to reminisce about difficult times from her past. While it was challenging to be reminded of those dark periods, the inevitable truth found its way in and lifted her spirits. And what was that truth? Everything does, indeed, get better. So, Chalene felt compelled to tell you about this process in the hopes it reminds you that life is all about perspective… how you’re feeling or whatever it is you’re going through is 100% never permanent.

You’re in for a real treat as Chalene chats with, fellow podcaster, Lori Harder (Earn Your Happy Podcast). Their conversation today centers around a topic they’re both super passionate about… communication! How you communicate with others will determine how they perceive and receive you. And, not to mention, has the ability to make or break any type of relationship. Get ready for an enlightening dialogue that feels much more like a good talk between friends than an interview!

Do you find that people often take advantage of your talents, kindness and generosity — leaving you feeling hurt, disappointed, undervalued and disrespected?

She’ll help you understand the importance of recognizing (what may be) victim-like patterns, how they’re subconsciously holding you back, and what to do about it.

In this episode, you’re a fly on the wall of a very candid conversation between Chalene and Bret as they open up about his father’s struggle with Alzheimer’s and how it affects their entire family.

Today, Chalene will approach the subject of relationships (family, friends, co-workers, et al.) from an angle you don’t hear often. It’s all about goofing off! Look, nothing recharges and rejuvenates us quite like a good laugh, right? There’s something so special and life affirming about letting your guard down in front of others and just being silly. In this episode, Chalene will really drive this point home with personal anecdotes and tips on how to loosen up in many areas of life.

Today, Chalene is talking about why certain people you really like don't like you back. And, to be clear, this isn’t about your high school crush or someone you dated a couple of times. But rather, those people in our lives — e.g., within a circle of friends or network, your line of work, acquaintances, etc. — who you think are amazing. You’d like to be more connected and just get to know them better! But, for whatever reason, it just doesn't feel as if they feel the same way.

Personal style can have a major impact on one’s confidence, creativity, and identity. As a matter of fact, based on your personal style, people make assumptions — fairly or unfairly — about your intelligence, income, competence, and your age. So, in this episode, with Chalene's tell-it-like-it-is guidance, we're going to take a very honest look at YOUR personal style and decide if it's time for an update!
