In this life update, Chalene and Bret share what turned into a full blown catastrophe after a major flood destroyed their California beach house. They walk through the reality of dealing with insurance delays, massive financial decisions, and why coastal properties come with a level of risk most homeowners never see coming. Along the way, the conversation shifts into a surprisingly grounding discussion about money mindset, stress, and how quickly plans and priorities can change. It is honest, sometimes darkly funny, and full of hard earned perspective on loss, gratitude, and not letting stuff define your future. Chalene and Bret also the road trip chaos that took place on their way to visit Chalene's parents.
