Description: Chalene Johnson finally tells her origin story all in one place, starting at the very beginning in Part 1 of this series. From growing up broke in Michigan to dirt roads, sketchy neighbors, big risks, and parents who were way too young and figuring it out as they went, this episode is funny, honest, and a little chaotic. It is filled with moments that suddenly make a lot of things click without tying it up in a neat bow. This story is just getting started, so be sure to watch for Part 2, where things take a very unexpected turn. 🔥Join Chalene on Patreon for all the content she can not share on the regular show!  👉 http://chalene.com/more   🎉Camp Be More 2026!!
