What happens when you stop trying to impress the world — and start becoming who you actually are?

In this powerful episode, Chase Hero opens up about his journey from incarceration and rock-bottom moments… to building wealth, emotional strength, and a life rooted in self-awareness and authentic success.

💡 Why most people don’t know who they truly are
🌱 The courage it takes to reinvent yourself
🚪 Leaving small-town limits & rewriting your story
