Description: This episode feels like taking a long, quiet walk while the Christmas lights are glowing and your brain finally gets to exhale. Chalene Johnson starts with why Southern California just does the holidays better and slowly eases into a real, honest conversation about December, aging, marriage, empty nesting, money, convenience, and generosity. There are funny tangents, opinionated takes, and moments that land deeper than expected. It is cozy, reflective, slightly unhinged in the best way, and the kind of episode that makes you feel less alone and more grounded. 🔥Join Chalene on Patreon  for all the "age-affirming" surgery Updates  👉  http://chalene.com/facelift   🎉Camp Be More 2026!!
