The Chalene Show | Diet, Fitness & Life Balance

Peptides are everywhere right now — hyped by influencers, marketed as the next big thing in anti-aging, fat loss, healing, and even libido. But are they actually safe? Are any of them FDA approved? And what’s the real difference between the peptides found in skincare and supplements vs. the ones people are injecting? In this episode, Chalene Johnson breaks down the facts, shares jaw-dropping stories, and reveals the truth about what works, what’s risky, and what questions every consumer should be asking before jumping on the peptide bandwagon.

If you've been curious about GLP-1s but assumed they're only for people with diabetes or major weight to lose—this episode will absolutely shift your perspective. Chalene sits down with Dr. Kathleen Jordan of MIDI Health to unpack everything from microdosing GLP-1s (like Ozempic and Wegovy) to their shocking brain-protective benefits, and even their potential role in reducing addictive behaviors like snacking or drinking. They cover why perimenopausal and menopausal weight gain feels so defeating, how compounding pharmacies work, and why GLP-1s might actually be part of a longevity plan. Oh, and if you’ve ever worried about backlash from “cheating” with a medication… this one’s especially for you.

Talking to a partner about sex stuff can be super uncomfortable — but it doesn’t have to be. In this juicy Part 2 episode, Chalene brings back intimacy expert Susan Bratton to tackle what’s really going on when a man seems less interested in sex, how to approach tricky conversations about hormones or ED without hurting his ego, and what women can do to spark desire and confidence in the bedroom. From surprising tools like penis pumps and nitric oxide boosters to simple mindset shifts around body image and fantasy sharing, this episode delivers the real talk most couples desperately need. It’s funny, raw, and packed with insights that could completely transform a relationship — and maybe even extend a couple’s longevity.   🎯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   🎯 Need a clinician who is trained in women's health and accepts insurance?

In this totally unfiltered episode, Chalene breaks down her wild girls’ weekend, complete with boat-day dance parties, self-tanner disasters, shuffle dance injuries, and the Great Bodega Betrayal. She also gets real about sleep struggles, narcissism overload on TikTok, and why posing for thirst traps is basically a sport.

Why do some women feel totally exhausted all day—only to be wide awake the second their head hits the pillow? It might not be your hormones (or at least, not just your hormones). In this episode, Chalene shares 11 surprisingly common habits that could be wrecking your sleep—no matter how many wellness hacks or supplements you’ve already tried. We're talking mouth breathing, blood sugar crashes, sneaky tech triggers, and some habits you thought were healthy but are actually sabotaging your rest. But first—Chalene spills the story of a bizarre and hilariously awkward experience at a recent wellness conference that had her wondering… Did I just join a cult? Trust us, it’s worth the listen.

In honor of Father’s Day, this episode is a little different—and definitely one of the most emotional ever shared on the show. Chalene’s husband, Bret, opens up about a visit with his dad, Bob, who’s been living with Alzheimer’s. It was a tough day, and Bret doesn’t hold back when describing just how heartbreaking and disorienting this disease can be—not just for the person diagnosed, but for everyone who loves them. What follows is a beautiful recording Bret made during a car ride with his dad on one of his good days. It’s tender, it’s honest, and it’ll absolutely make you reflect on the importance of saying the things that matter—while there’s still time. Get ready for tears… and maybe a reminder to call someone you love.   🎯Try Patreon for 7 Days FREE for all of the FUN content not suited for the regular show!!    👉http://chalene.com/more   💪🏼Join the all-new Phase It!!
