## Resource

Ep.50 "The Bag Ain't the Boss" We open this milestone episode with a heavy heart, dedicating it to Nolan Wells an 18-year-old from Ocean Springs, Mississippi, whose family is still fighting for answers. LetDatBoyLiveOn. Then we close out ten episodes about money the only way this show knows how: honestly. Money messes with our mental in more ways than we admit the anxiety, the shame, the chase that never feels finished. In this one, I get real about my own stages of chasing the bag: wanting to take my wife out without ever checking menu prices, wanting to book the trip in the moment and know we're okay while learning that it's the time in between what we want that is truly living. Plus, on Footwork: why this segment exists in the first place. Sneakers were never just about function on this show every pair I pick carries the weight of the episode. Chapter 1 — The Stages of the Chase: Money and your mental health, and being present in the in-between. Chapter 2 — Ten Episodes, One Truth: What the whole arc was really teaching us. You are not alone in this feeling. Don't give up on yourself and believe in make believe. Chapter 3 — Make Believe Still Needs a Blueprint: Break the dream into objectives. And the conversation nobody wants but everybody needs: living will, trust, and life insurance. It's a must. Fifty episodes. Fifty Mondays. Not one missed. Thank you for living with me. If this show has given you anything, leave a review it's how the next person who needs this space finds it. Presented by The Chit Chat Chai — thechitchatchai.com. Tell 'em LDBL sent you. Mental health matters. Sneakers are emotional. Growth is non-negotiable. More life.
