Gray divorce has exploded, with the divorce rate for people 50 and older more than doubling since 1990 and this age group now making up 40% of all divorces, up from just 8% in 1990, per Bowling Green State University research. Chalene Johnson breaks down why marriages that looked solid for decades are suddenly ending. She unpacks a 2024 study on late in life divorce, the empty nest reckoning that leaves couples with nothing left to talk about, and how perimenopause and menopause change mood, libido, and patience enough to end a marriage nobody saw coming. Then there's the gray affair. Chalene turns to relationship expert Esther Perel's research on why people in happy, decades-long marriages still stray, plus the surprising odds that a couple stays together after one is discovered. Topics discussed: gray divorce, gray affair, Bowling Green State University, Esther Perel, empty nest, menopause, perimenopause, midlife crisis, betrayal trauma.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Have you ever felt invisible inside your marriage?

Kate Beckinsale wiped her Instagram last week after trolls decided she must be on Ozempic, then revealed the real reason, tied to grief and a health condition she's had since sixteen. Chalene Johnson breaks down why the internet's first assumption about any thin woman is always the same one, using Lizzo, Kylie Jenner, Kelly Osbourne, and Olivia Wilde as the latest examples. Then, a new Stanford study analyzing more than 21,000 women found that estrogen only hormone therapy is linked to measurably less Alzheimer's related brain plaque, confirmed by autopsy rather than memory complaints. Chalene explains who actually qualifies for estrogen only therapy and how to bring the research to your own doctor. She also covers a new survey showing 40% of Americans have already been scammed by AI, a viral video of a woman who refused to train the cheaper replacement who got her promotion, and a new collagen treatment tested on skin from real plastic surgery patients. Topics discussed: Kate Beckinsale, mast cell activation syndrome, Lizzo, Kylie Jenner, Kelly Osbourne, Olivia Wilde, Stanford study, estrogen, Alzheimer's, Women's Health Initiative, AI scams, voice cloning, Demi Moore, theunobsolete, collagen study.   Join Chalene on Patreon, her private podcast to hear all the latest on the landlord dispute drama!

Meta's AI has started suggesting questions like "Who is this child?" under totally innocent family videos, and one mom watched Facebook piece together her kids' names, birth dates, and deleted childhood photos, all from posts she never made public herself. Chalene breaks down the new Meta policy behind it, and why almost nothing you post online is as private as you think. Then, the true crime case investigators are calling the House of Horrors, a self published horror novelist accused of recruiting vulnerable women for violent films, tied to missing women and zero recovered bodies. Plus a wild turn in the Lindsay Clancy trial, where a deadlocked jury got a rare Allen charge and a retired nurse was arrested for filming jurors outside the courthouse. Chalene also breaks down Bethenny Frankel's surprise trip to Burning Man, and casting news fans are calling the biggest shakeup Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has had in years. Topics discussed: Meta AI, Facebook, doxxing, social engineering, Bethenny Frankel, Burning Man, The Man Will Burn, Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Allen charge, Kevin Reddington, Dawn Light, House of Horrors, Raymond Horsch, Eugene Horsch, Leah Remini, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and the episode with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you think Meta's AI has gone too far and are you concerned?  Could you survive Burning Man?

Eli Lilly is testing a new GLP-1 called brenipatide in phase three trials, and weight loss isn't even the main focus, researchers are watching it for alcohol use disorder, opioid addiction, bipolar disorder, and IBS. Chalene Johnson also breaks down a new Yale University study on why the hunger hormones ghrelin and leptin roar back the moment someone stops taking a GLP-1. Then Chalene calls out an Instagram account called Baddie Bethany (also posting as Baddie Betty on Facebook), nearly a million followers and Instagram is rolling out a brand new AI content label. She also flags an AI "Dr. Chen" wellness account blending real health facts with false ones to earn trust. Plus, five new health devices she's watching, including a toilet sensor called Throne, an AI skin scanner called SkinBit, and a caregiving wearable from the founders of Fitbit.

Dolly Parton's death has sparked a push to make September 25 a national holiday, National Dolly Parton Day, a nod to her song "9 to 5," and Chalene Johnson breaks down the philanthropy behind it, including Jeff Bezos's $100 million Courage and Civility Award and over 300 million books donated through her charity work. Then Chalene explains how she woke up "Under Attack" on TikTok over a conspiracy theory tied to the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, after Patrick Clancy's attorney threatened content creators with defamation lawsuits and a stranger's video twisted what Chalene actually said about the case. Plus, the strange doctor wars breaking out in women's healthcare over HRT and testosterone pellets, why the Women's Health Initiative got it wrong, and a new legging lawsuit involving Buffbunny.

Dolly Parton died at age 80, just months after telling fans in May that her whole system was out of whack and she needed to slow down for treatment, with no official cause of death released yet. Chalene Johnson also breaks down the Callaway Golf ad pulled within hours of airing, where Good Good cofounder Garrett Clark tackles professional golfer Alexis Mistowski over a driver, and asks the uncomfortable question critics won't touch. Plus, the backlash Chalene got for wearing Meta smart glasses, and why she isn't backing down. Then, the latest from the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, where defense attorney Reddington's cross examination of the prosecution's expert witness may have just changed the case, backed by brand new 2026 research out of UCL on how postpartum psychosis actually works.

Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts labor and delivery nurse on trial for killing her three children, ages five, three, and eight months, received more than 30 different psychiatric prescriptions in just four months and was never diagnosed with postpartum psychosis before the killings. While she has admitted to the murders, a wave of TikTok and true crime creators has spent the past week building an entirely different case against her husband, Patrick Clancy, pointing to a half marathon photo with his now wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, a Bratz doll crime scene recreation, and a Nancy Grace segment about the couple sitting too close together. Chalene checked every theory against the actual court testimony. She also breaks down the one piece of evidence the judge won't let the public hear, Patrick's 911 call, described by courtroom insiders, including NBC10 Boston's Sue O'Connell, as the most gut wrenching audio they have ever heard. Topics discussed: Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Cora Clancy, Dawson Clancy, Callan Clancy, Dr. Rachel Danis, McLean Hospital, postpartum psychosis, postpartum depression, SSRIs, Bermuda Half Marathon, Don't F**k with Cats, Nancy Grace, Shannon Hill, Sue O'Connell, Commonwealth Confidential, Casey Anthony, George Anthony, Chris Watts.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and upcoming episode Session with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you believe what you see on social media about true crime cases?

Hayden Panettiere, who appeared in more than 50 commercials by age five before starring in Heroes and Nashville, was found unresponsive at 36 in a Greenville, South Carolina apartment on Sunday, August 16th, where her on again off again boyfriend Brian Hickerson and his brother Zach were both present when a 911 call reported cardiac arrest and a possible overdose. Hayden had been on a press tour for her memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, detailing a decade long, documented abusive relationship with Brian Hickerson, who pled no contest to two felony domestic violence charges, and the moment Neutrogena allegedly invoked a morality clause after she opened up about postpartum depression on the Kelly and Michael Show. The story also reaches back to her engagement to Wladimir Klitschko and their daughter Kaya, and a surprising parallel Chalene draws to the Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis trial. Topics discussed: Hayden Panettiere, Brian Hickerson, Zach Hickerson, This Is Me: A Reckoning, Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died, Jay Shetty, On Purpose, Gayle King, Neutrogena, Michael Strahan, Wladimir Klitschko, Kaya, Lindsay Clancy, Andrea Yates, Lori Vallow, Susan Smith, Casey Anthony, TMZ, Matthew Perry.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and upcoming episode Session with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    Book your virtual visit today with MIDI Health! 👉https://chalene.com/midi   🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Why do you think postpartum depression is still this stigmatized?

Cameron Diaz became a mother again at 53, and a new UC Davis study found something bigger: 48 of 54 products labeled "pure avocado oil," including 100% of the salad dressings tested, aren't what the label says. Chalene Johnson breaks down the age double standard behind Diaz and husband Benji's third child, names the "small founder" brands caught in the avocado oil test (Siete, Primal Kitchen, Boulder Canyon, Kettle Brand), and reveals who actually owns them now: Pepsi, Kraft Heinz, Utz, and Campbell's.

Perez Hilton had a public breakdown on TikTok this week, and people are asking what actually happened. Chalene Johnson breaks it down with trigger warnings, including how it connects to his defamation fight with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds and his brush with death from sepsis this past March. Chalene also digs into why qualified applicants, including former Elle editor Stacy Deguide, who deleted 15 years off her resume just to get a callback, are vanishing into what recruiters call an AI hiring black hole. A Stanford study found that roughly one in five companies now let algorithms reject candidates before a human ever sees a resume, and Chalene walks through how hiring software like Workday's may be filtering out midlife workers, new grads, and everyone in between. Rounding out the episode is this week's crackdown on the black market peptide trade. An Indiana company called Paradigm Peptides was sentenced after selling to 54,000 customers in 80 countries, a Michigan dealer got 20 years for relabeling semaglutide as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Retatrutide, and a licensed doctor running a Utah clinic called True Health was caught repackaging BPC-157, TB-500, and other peptides under fake labels for more than 200 patients. Topics discussed: Perez Hilton, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Justin Baldoni, TikTok, Ariana Grande, Stacy Deguide, Elle, Stanford University, Workday, Paradigm Peptides, True Health, Justin Watkins, Ozempic, Wegovy, semaglutide, Retatrutide, BPC-157, TB-500, GLP-1, sepsis, ageism.

Dr. Rhonda Patrick just told Mel Robbins to stop putting bananas in your blueberry smoothie, but the study behind her claim has a catch almost nobody is mentioning. It's not the only trusted expert claim getting exposed this week either: The New York Times just uncovered AI clones of Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Kelly Casperson selling supplements they never actually endorsed. Meanwhile, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, and Ariana Grande are all getting torn apart online over their bodies, and Chalene admits she's been guilty of the exact double standard she's calling out. Why do we judge weight loss so differently than weight gain? And what is Ariana Grande's new video Petal really saying about fame, control, and criticism?

Chalene Johnson tackles the question most people are afraid to ask: what if the common denominator in every failed relationship is you? She walks through seven signs that you might be the one creating the pattern, from blaming exes instead of owning your part, to childhood attachment wounds resurfacing in adult relationships, to being quick to judge and slow to say sorry. Chalene explains why arrogance can quietly protect you from ever seeing your own role in the breakup or blowup, and why the healthiest relationship you can build is the one with yourself. Topics discussed: toxic relationship patterns, attachment style, arrogance in relationships, empathy, self-sabotage, therapy, magnesium and brain function   Midi Health hormone and menopause care 👉 https://chalene.com/midi   Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you tend to explain what happened in a breakup without mentioning your own part in it?

Gray divorce hit 36%, Danny Glover went public with his Alzheimer's diagnosis, BPC-157 quietly became legal again, a new bill takes aim at menopause discrimination at work, and celebrities are lining up to undo their own plastic surgery. Chalene Johnson breaks down why this is all happening at once. Chalene digs into why Kylie Jenner, Simon Cowell, and Kim Zolciak are all now saying they regret work they once defended, why Emily Simpson and Angie Katsanevas are living out the gray divorce numbers in real time, and why lawmakers like Debbie Dingell are stepping in on menopause discrimination at work.

Testosterone, not GLP-1s, is what finally let Chalene Johnson lose body fat and build real muscle after 40, and she's laying out exactly how in this episode. Chalene explains why her total testosterone always looked normal on paper while she still felt exhausted and stuck in the gym, until a clinician finally tested her free testosterone and SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin) and found the real problem. In her words, total testosterone is the money in the bank, free testosterone is the cash in your pocket, and SHBG is the bank teller deciding how much you actually get to spend. She also gets into why she skipped the growth peptides everyone's talking about (tesamorelin, ipamorelin, CJC-1295) and switched from monthly testosterone injections to a daily cream instead. She talks candidly about the mold exposure that wrecked her hormones, caregiving through her father-in-law's Alzheimer's, and why she stopped weighing herself and started tracking body fat with an InBody scale instead. Topics discussed: testosterone for women, free testosterone, total testosterone, SHBG, hormone replacement therapy, perimenopause, GLP-1, tesamorelin, ipamorelin, CJC-1295, HGH, IGF-1, progressive overload, body composition, InBody scale, DEXA scan, mold toxicity, testosterone cream Midi Health testosterone for women: https://chalene.com/test Midi Health hormone and menopause care: https://chalene.com/midi   Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Have you ever gotten a "normal" lab result but still felt off?

Chalene Johnson breaks down the Instagram AI feature that had the internet in a panic last week, why deepfake scammers are now stealing real videos and subtly altering someone's voice and appearance to make fake endorsements look real, and what to watch for so you don't get fooled. She also shares a new survey showing that a large percentage of perimenopausal and menopausal women have no idea what stage of reproduction they're in, and explains why she's been getting stronger and leaner using a hormone marker called sex hormone binding globulin, or SHBG, something most doctors won't test unless you specifically request it. She recommends Midi Health for anyone who wants a full hormone panel done right. Chalene gives a quick update on the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni legal saga, including the ongoing dispute over $8 million in legal fees, then moves into the difference between Botox, Juvederm, and Sculptra, her own experience with Sculptra after her facelift, and a new lawsuit against Juvederm maker AbbVie. She closes with a passionate defense of Madonna following her World Cup halftime performance, walking through Madonna's decades of reinvention, her physical training history, and why Chalene believes the ageism criticism aimed at her is completely out of line.

Chalene Johnson breaks down retatrutide, the peptide everyone is calling a GLP-3 and an Ozempic killer, cutting through the hype to get to what the science actually says. Eli Lilly's own clinical trials show weight loss results that beat anything semaglutide or tirzepatide has produced, but retatrutide is not FDA approved and is not legally available at any US pharmacy, which means almost nobody buying it online is actually getting the real thing. Chalene explains what retatrutide actually is (a triple agonist that adds glucagon receptor activity to the GLP-1 and GIP receptors already targeted by Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound), walks through what the phase three trial data really shows versus how it is being exaggerated online, and shares why an independent lab test of vials sold through TikTok, med spas, and Reddit found most contained only 7 to 14 percent of anything resembling the real molecule. She also unpacks the muscle preservation claims that are not backed by human data, the anhedonia and placebo effect reports circulating online, why bariatric surgery comparisons need context, and how to find a reputable source like Midi Health for anyone considering a GLP-1 through legitimate medical channels. Topics discussed: retatrutide, Ozempic, semaglutide, Wegovy, tirzepatide, Mounjaro, Zepbound, GLP-1, GLP-3, Eli Lilly, bariatric surgery, Midi Health, anhedonia, muscle wasting, peptides, BPC 157 Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    Book your virtual visit today with MIDI Health!

Charli D'Amelio has gone no contact with her family, and newly confirmed legal filings show she's formally separated from D'Amelio Brands, the family company built entirely around her fame. Chalene Johnson breaks down how a Connecticut teenager's TikTok videos turned into a $100 million family empire almost overnight, and how that empire pulled in her sister Dixie D'Amelio, mom Heidi D'Amelio, and dad Mark D'Amelio. She covers the DeuxMoi tip that kicked off the rumors, TMZ's confirmation of the legal split dating back to March 2025, and Mark D'Amelio's since viral TikTok Live where he name dropped Charli's lawyer, Ron Starr, and claimed he has "receipts." Chalene also digs into the D'Amelio Show on Hulu, the collapse of the D'Amelio Brands footwear line and Be Happy Snacks popcorn, comparisons to Addison Rae's father, and why the Jackie Coogan Act, the law meant to protect child actors' earnings, doesn't cover kids who become famous on social media at all. Topics discussed: Charli D'Amelio, Dixie D'Amelio, Mark D'Amelio, Heidi D'Amelio, D'Amelio Brands, The D'Amelio Show, Hulu, TMZ, DeuxMoi, Ron Starr, Be Happy Snacks, Jackie Coogan Act, Addison Rae, TikTok, child influencer, momager   Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: If your kid came to you crying and said a huge opportunity was exhausting them, would you push them to push through, or would you let it go? Do you think Mark is a dad who got blinded by good intentions, or do you think there's something deeper going on with his own ego and need for control? Have you ever seen this exact pattern play out in a family you know — where fame, or even just a taste of success, took over and the parents couldn't see what it was doing to their kid?    Related Links: Sign Up to Get the Weekly Newsletter!! 👉NEWSLETTER Camp Be More 2027 Registration is now OPEN!! 👉 CAMP   Our Sponsors!!  Chalene's Favorite!

Chalene has a Travis Kelce wedding update, a personal Travis Kelce story she's mildly embarrassed about, and a correction from Wednesday's episode before getting into a lot. The Siders case in Ohio just got a lot more complicated. Gary Sr. collapsed on his way to court, got released on a recognizance bond, and his attorneys filed two major legal motions on the same day. Chalene walks through what that could mean and why people are raising eyebrows at the timing. Then there's the Turpin family, another case of children isolated for years inside what looked, from the outside, like a completely normal home. Chalene talks about why that one is actually the scarier story, and what it says about how these things stay hidden for so long. Two singers are in the news this week. Adele is stepping away from performing, and she has a reason that is hard to argue with. And Ariana Grande has postponed tour dates, and Chalene does not think it is for the reason everyone assumes. Then there is a harder conversation about the platforms giving massive audiences to people who are clearly in crisis, what responsibility looks like there, and what Chalene knows from her own experience about how long it can take to even recognize there is a problem. She is recording from Cannes, France, and yes, you will hear the mopeds. Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Have you ever looked back and realized something you thought was totally healthy was actually kind of not? Like, when did that finally click for you? Okay, the Turpin family looked completely normal from the outside. Matching outfits, Disneyland trips, the whole thing. Does that change how you look at the people around you? Adele basically said she built an incredible life and now she just wants to live it. No apologies.

Jon and Kate Plus 8 is back in the news, and it is a lot more complicated than the headlines are making it sound. One of the sextuplets, Colin, has a book coming out in October with abuse allegations against Kate Gosselin. And before anyone picks a side, Chalene wants to take you all the way back to the beginning, because the story of how we got here matters. This episode covers the full arc of one of the most watched families in reality TV history, what actually happened to Colin behind the scenes, why he was sent away for two years to a residential facility, what his dad Jon had to do to even find out where he was, and the psychological phenomenon called family scapegoating that experts say fits this situation almost exactly. But Chalene is not here to hand out a verdict. She has real questions about what role the cameras played, what role the producers played, what role we played as viewers, and whether any of this is as simple as hero and villain. Spoiler: she does not think it is. She also wants to hear from you. What do you remember about watching this show? Because this one hits different when you go back and actually look at it.

Sixteen children. One room. Twelve feet by twelve feet. The Ohio attorney general stood at a podium this week and said out loud that if investigators had waited one more day, some of them might not have made it. Chalene is breaking this one down carefully, because there's a part of this story that almost nobody is talking about, and it changes everything. Then there's a story that's going to make you think twice before booking any cosmetic procedure. Three patients. One doctor. All within a few months of each other. That doctor is still practicing today, and there's a reason that's completely legal. This one is important. Share it with someone you love. And because the world never stops delivering, two influencers broke into the Empire State Building on Monday night, climbed to the top of the antenna at 1,450 feet, got engaged, and were in handcuffs by morning. Their one comment to reporters outside court is genuinely unbelievable.

Serena Williams is 44, four years retired, and somehow back at Wimbledon. Everyone wants to talk about the 31 pounds she lost to get there. Chalene's got thoughts on why that's the conversation instead of her game, and a stat about who GLP-1 companies are quietly targeting next that's going to make you raise an eyebrow. (Oh, and she's recording this one from the south of France, so don't mind the church bells.) Then there's Taylor and Travis, the wedding nobody can stop speculating about, the prenup, and the conspiracy theories that have apparently convinced more people than you'd think. Chalene's not buying it, but she's got opinions on why we all can't look away. There's also a book Chalene can't put down, the hormone therapy research nobody's talking about that could be the difference between life and death for women over 40, the real story on creatine dosing, and her usual rant, this time covering QR codes, gym hogs, and the people who text "we should talk" and vanish.

Nobody warned women that their vaginal health could affect everything from their immune system to their marriage. Dr. Anna Cabeca, triple board certified OBGYN and bestselling author known as The Girlfriend Doctor, sits down with Chalene Johnson to talk about the menopausal symptoms women are quietly suffering through and the simple, affordable solutions most doctors aren't mentioning. What's actually happening to the body after 40, why desire disappears before women even understand why, and the three letter term every woman needs to bring to her next doctor's appointment. Dr. Anna also breaks down what women who've had hysterectomies aren't being told about progesterone, the over the counter DHEA cream that runs about a dollar a day, and why a call to your local compounding pharmacist might be the most underrated first step nobody is talking about.

Gray hair is having a moment, and it's not what you think. Chalene Johnson is breaking down the hair trend that's saving women time, money, and countless hours in a salon chair. Plus, why midlife women are absolutely dominating the influencer space right now, and what Bethenny Frankel's jaw-dropping income confession says about the future of brand deals. Then there's the Beckham family drama that's got everyone talking, but not for the reason you'd expect. Brooklyn Beckham's very public distancing from his parents is shining a light on a trend that's quietly playing out in therapy offices and family group chats everywhere. Going low contact is a term you're about to hear a lot more of, and Chalene shares exactly where she stands on it. Recorded from Paros, Greece, this episode also includes a quick update on what Chalene and Bret have been up to, a travel confession involving an unfortunate amount of cheese and bread, and a new watercolor hobby that somehow turned into a $300 art haul.

Netflix's Maternal Instinct made the Taylor Parker case famous, but the true-crime story behind Reagan Hancock's murder (the fake pregnancy, the fabricated medical records, and years of deception) is even more disturbing than the documentary shows. Long before the capital-murder conviction in Texas, friends and investigators were already questioning what about Taylor Parker was real. In this episode, Chalene breaks down the Taylor Parker and Reagan Hancock case from the beginning, including details, testimony, timelines, and evidence that received little attention in Netflix's Maternal Instinct. You'll hear about the fake pregnancy, the relationship with Wade Griffin, the financial schemes, the Pecan Point property deal, the growing suspicions from family members, and the events that ultimately led to Taylor Parker's conviction for capital murder. But the question at the center of this story isn't simply what happened. It's how a person can create an entirely different reality, convince others to believe it, and continue protecting that fantasy even as everything around them begins to collapse. And that may be the most unsettling part of this case. Topics discussed: Taylor Parker, Reagan Simmons-Hancock, Maternal Instinct, Netflix documentary, fake pregnancy case, Wade Griffin, Braxlynn Hancock, true crime, criminal psychology, pathological lying, deception, capital murder trial, forensic psychology.

Chalene Johnson recorded this one on the road, starting in New York and wrapping up in Paros, Greece, and it might be one of the most information-packed episodes she's done all year. There's a comparison being made right now that Chalene can't stop thinking about. Two women, both 32, both at the height of their careers. One of them died. The parallels today are ones she felt compelled to address out loud, even without easy answers. Then a study just dropped from Northwestern Medicine that reframes the entire perimenopause and brain fog conversation, and it has nothing to do with hot flashes. If you've ever walked into a room and forgotten why you're there, this research explains something your doctor probably never mentioned. Plus, brand new data from Fitbits and Apple Health devices reveals what's actually happening to people on GLP-1 medications that nobody is talking about yet. And a Stanford study just identified a compound that could change the muscle loss conversation entirely. Chalene also gives you a heads up on a deeply disturbing documentary trending on Netflix right now and why she wants you to watch it before Friday. 🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you think the public conversation around Ariana Grande is helpful or harmful?  Have you noticed changes in your motivation to exercise since starting a GLP-1?

Semaglutide. Tirzepatide. Retatrutide. The peptide conversation has taken over every gym, group chat, and social media feed. But the part about muscle loss, osteopenia, and what the gray market is actually selling you? That part is getting buried. Chalene Johnson sits down with Adam Schafer, co-host of Mind Pump, one of the top fitness podcasts in the world with nearly half a billion downloads. Adam spent three and a half years running real test groups on GLP-1s including Ozempic and Wegovy. What he found changed his perspective entirely and he is not holding back. This conversation covers what is actually driving muscle and bone density loss in women over 40 and 50, why the scale and the mirror are lying about body composition, and what most women are getting wrong about building real strength in midlife. Plus the truth about the gray market and what those peptides may actually contain. This is the conversation the fitness industry is not having and it is one every woman over 40 needs to hear. 🔥Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉http://chalene.com/more    💪🏼Need a clinician who is trained in women's health and accepts insurance?

It's 3:14 AM. Eyes wide open. Heart already racing. And the spiral begins. If that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like someone finally said out loud what so many women have been quietly carrying alone. Chalene Johnson breaks down the seven overlapping forces that are quietly dismantling the mental health of midlife women right now. And no, it is not just hormones. It is not a character flaw. It is not a lack of discipline or a better morning routine. It is a load that would break the most resilient nervous system on the planet. From the brain chemistry chaos of perimenopause to the burnout of the sandwich generation, AI job anxiety to social media decision fatigue, Chalene connects the dots on why so many women over 40 are struggling with sleep, mental health, and a sense of identity they cannot quite name. She pulls from brand new 2025 and 2026 research and gets brutally honest about the story women have been sold that no longer holds up. Your nervous system is not broken. You are just carrying too much. If someone came to mind while listening, send this episode to her. She needs it.

The deeper they go, the more ridiculous the investigation becomes.   This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon. Some weeks it's hilarious, some weeks it's jaw-dropping, but it's always real life that doesn't quite fit on the regular show.

Chalene Johnson is fired up, and she is not holding back. Three topics, all of them wild, and she has opinions on every single one. First, the peptide black market is way bigger and way scarier than most people realize. What is actually in those vials, who is selling them, and how this underground economy exploded into a $100 million operation will make your jaw drop. Then the Michael Jackson: The Verdict documentary just dropped on Netflix, and Chalene has thoughts. Can you love an artist and despise what you believe he did? The answer is more complicated than you think. And the Alec Murdaugh double murder conviction just got overturned. Not because of new evidence. The reason why is going to make you question everything about how our court system actually works. 🔥 Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉http://chalene.com/more    💪🏼 Book your virtual Age Well Appointment today with MIDI Health!! 👉 http://chalene.com/midi   🧐 Sign Up to Get the Weekly Newsletter!! 👉https://chalene.com/newsletter/   🎉 Camp Be More 2027 Registration is now OPEN!! 👉 http://campbemore.com   🎯 Related Links: Watch Live Court Streams with Emily D Baker 👉 https://www.youtube.com/@TheEmilyDBaker/streams Chalene's Favorite Sunscreen!

Fitness copyright just got dismantled, deepfake porn just got a law, and Rosie O'Donnell just got honest. Something happened in a federal courtroom that every fitness creator, every entrepreneur, every woman who's ever built something from scratch needs to hear about. It involves Tracy Anderson, a $110 million fitness empire, and a ruling that just told her anyone can copy 30 years of her work. And that's just where Chalene Johnson gets started in this episode. By the end, you'll know why a suburban pharmacist became the face of the biggest deepfake porn crisis in history, what Paris Hilton's new TikTok documentary is exposing, and why the Take It Down Act might matter to you personally, even if you have 200 followers and a private account. There's also a Rosie O'Donnell facelift confession nobody saw coming, a very honest conversation about women and bodies and who we go after when we're triggered, and a personal announcement from Chalene about where this show is headed next.

The protein fix for women over 40 that doesn't require tracking, measuring, or losing your mind. Most protein advice was literally designed to make you fail. And the studies it's based on? Done on young athletic men. Not you. What nobody tells you about protein in midlife, the real talk on why you're not absorbing it, how much you actually need, and the fix that doesn't require an app or a food scale. Chalene Johnson spent years obsessing over macros, scanning every package, and still feeling like she was failing every single day. At 57, she's leaner than she was when she was exercising four to five hours a day. She doesn't track. She doesn't restrict. And she finally understands why none of that old stuff was ever going to work. Here's what most protein advice leaves out. Once you're in perimenopause or menopause, your body stops producing the same digestive enzymes. It literally can't break down protein the way it used to. So even if you're hitting your numbers, you're probably not absorbing what you think you are. This is called anabolic resistance, and it changes everything. Why the protein studies everyone quotes were done on young athletic men, not you Why feeling bloated and gassy after eating protein is not a coincidence Why women in midlife actually need more protein than they did at 35, not less Why processed protein products are creating inflammation and working against you Chalene also shares her Smart Girl method for eyeballing protein without a label, app, or calculator, the digestive enzyme tip that was a total game changer, and the one habit every woman she knows who looks amazing at 50, 60, and 70 actually does.   💪🏼 Book your virtual Age Well Appointment today with MIDI Health!! 👉 http://chalene.com/MIDI   🎯Related Links: Bioptimizers Masszymes digestive enzymes 👉 http://chalene.com/digest Organifi collagen peptides 👉 http://chalene.com/collagen Chalene's Favorites!

The honest conversation about midlife anxiety, perimenopause supplement scams, and why women over 40 can't stop adding things to their plate. I can't stop. I can't rest. And even when I do, I feel guilty about it. Sound familiar? I did my third ketamine therapy session last week and something shifted. I'm not gonna oversell it, but I noticed. And apparently so did hundreds of you who sent me DMs saying you feel the exact same way. We need to talk about this. We also need to talk about what's going on with women in midlife right now because the messages I've been getting from you are telling me this is not just a Chalene problem. The anxiety. The pressure. The guilt when you finally rest. That's an us problem. Plus there's a major investigation just published about how supplement companies are targeting women in perimenopause with products that have zero clinical evidence behind them. In at least one case it led to a misdiagnosis of cancer. I'm giving you the one question to ask before you buy anything in this space. Then we're getting into the Erika Jayne settlement because the media has this completely wrong and the $2 million number everyone keeps repeating is not the whole story. And at the very end, spoiler warning, my full breakdown of The Crash on Netflix and everything they conveniently left out. 🔥Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉http://chalene.com/more  Or go directly to the Full Ketamine Episode 👉  https://www.patreon.com/posts/i-did-ketamine-158992336   🧐Sign Up to Get the Weekly Newsletter!! 👉https://chalene.com/newsletter/   🎉 Camp Be More 2027 Registration is now OPEN!! 👉 http://campbemore.com   💥 Related Links: Dr. Andrew Levinson, Vitality Health Miami Beach: https://www.vhw.co/ The Crash on Netflix Mean Girl Murders on HBO Max  Perimenopause supplement investigation: https://www.statnews.com/2026/05/23/perimenopause-misinformation-influencers-supplements-hormones/   🎯Our Sponsors!!  Organifi!!!

What nobody tells you about facelifts, the real talk on natural results, real costs, and what actually matters. My plastic surgeon looked at my facelift consultation list and said no to half of it. Honestly? That's when I knew he was the right one. Listen to all the BTS of My Facelift Journey  👉http://chalene.com/facelift Dr. Miguel Mascaro is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon specializing in deep plane facelifts and natural results for women over 40. He only takes patients by referral. His wait list is two to three years out. And in this conversation, he was more honest with me than any surgeon I've ever talked to. We get into everything. Why good facelift results go completely unnoticed. Why waiting too long is actually one of the biggest mistakes you can make. What's really going on when someone comes out of facial plastic surgery looking nothing like themselves? And why doing every procedure on your list at once almost always backfires. I also tell you exactly what I had done, what Dr. Mascaro told me I didn't need, how I treated my facelift recovery like a full-time job, and yes, I tell you exactly what I paid for my extended deep plane facelift. Down to the penny. But you're gonna have to watch till the end for that one. I am just your bossy big sister who really doesn't want you to mess up your face.

Three new GLP-1 studies, why every food is suddenly "high protein," the Bethenny Frankel shoe drama blowing up Instagram, and why I'm on a ketamine table as you listen. Three new studies just shifted the GLP-1 conversation, and not in the direction women have been hearing about. Chalene digs into what's actually happening to muscle and bone density, why the rebound after coming off matters more than anyone's talking about, and the three questions every woman on Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound should bring to her next doctor's appointment. She also gets into why every grocery aisle suddenly screams "high protein," and why this whole moment is starting to feel suspiciously like the Snackwell cookie era. There's a simple protein target that works without tracking macros, and Chalene walks through how she's using it. Then she breaks down the Bethenny Frankel shoe drama that took over Instagram this week. What the shoe brand founder got wrong, what Bethenny got wrong, and the rules of brand partnerships that almost nobody outside the influencer world understands. Finally, a personal update. As you're listening to this, Chalene is on the table for another medically supervised ketamine treatment with Dr. Andrew Levinson. She shares why she went back for a third session, what the last journey taught her about control, and who this kind of work is really for.   🔥Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉http://chalene.com/more   🎯 Need a clinician who is trained in women's health and accepts insurance?

Chalene + her son Brock on the AI avatar takeover, why midlife creators are most at risk, and the one thing AI can never copy. This week's episode is a little different because Chalene is actually the guest. Brock Johnson invited his mom back onto Build Your Tribe for a conversation that honestly feels very relevant right now. Everyone is rushing to use AI for content, branding, writing, thumbnails, videos, and automation… but what if it's actually making creators more forgettable? Chalene and Brock break down the growing "trust recession" happening online, why audiences are becoming more skeptical of polished content, and how AI may already be hurting authenticity more than creators realize. They also talk about why younger generations instantly recognize AI generated content, how fake influencers are already getting brand deals, and the surprising reason imperfect content is starting to outperform polished content on YouTube and Instagram. This conversation gets into the future of personal branding, content creation, and what creators over 40 need to understand before AI completely changes the online landscape. If you've been wondering how to use AI without losing trust, connection, or credibility, this episode is a must listen.

Okay… this episode goes everywhere. It starts with a fitness hot take that might make people mad: if women over 40 only have time to lift three days a week… should we just focus on legs? That turns into a whole conversation about muscle, metabolism, longevity, and what actually matters versus what the fitness industry keeps telling us we "should" be doing. Then Bret and I get into the Dorit and PK divorce mess, the Sports Illustrated influencer debate, why influencers honestly work harder than celebrities, and the Kim Kardashian story that has the internet fighting. We also became fully obsessed with a MrBeast grocery store challenge that somehow turned into a conversation about psychology, marketing, and why YouTubers understand human behavior better than TV executives. But the part that really hit me was the AI conversation. If you've been feeling weirdly behind lately, overwhelmed by Slack, Asana, Claude, notifications, nonstop messages, and trying to keep up with how fast everything is moving… you are definitely not alone. We got very real about AI burnout, entrepreneur overload, and why all these tools that are supposed to save time somehow make life feel even more chaotic. 🔥 Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉http://chalene.com/more   💪🏼 Book your virtual Age Well Appointment today with MIDI Health!! 👉 http://chalene.com/MIDI   🔥 Join Phase It!!
