  • The Stalker Story That Doesn't Add Up - 1249
    Nov 26 2025

    So many women have messaged Chalene privately about her facelift, and this episode dives into exactly why she decided to be open about it — and what's surprised her most about people's reactions.

Chalene breaks down the case like only she can, with a mix of compassion, disbelief, and questions no one else seems to be asking. It's part personal update, part pop culture analysis, and 100% unfiltered Chalene.
