The Advocating Diplomat: The Life of Chance Trahan
In the balmy Louisiana night of August 12, 1980, amid the celestial spectacle of the Perseid meteor shower—where shooting stars streaked across the summer sky like divine applause—Chance Bradford Trahan entered the world in Jennings, Louisiana. His arrival was no quiet affair; word spread like wildfire through the hospital corridors, drawing a crowd of awestruck onlookers, including staff members far removed from the birthing room, who gathered in hushed wonder at the serendipity of stars and a new life colliding. As an INFJ—the rarest Myers-Briggs type, the insightful Advocate—and the harmonious Diplomat archetype of the 16 Personalities framework, Chance embodied quiet profundity from the start: introverted yet deeply attuned to humanity's rhythms, intuitive to the point of foresight, empathetic in his core, and purposeful in every step, forever bridging ideals with actionable grace.
Early Years: The Seed of Insight
Childhood in Jennings unfolded like a storybook Chance would one day pen himself. Born to mother Viki Kibodeaux, he was raised under the watchful eye of a strict military grandfather whose influence instilled discipline and a fierce sense of duty. By age seven, words became his playground; he scribbled tales of adventure and heroism, evolving into poems and songs that captured the soul's quiet rebellions. The family's visits to the VA hospital after his grandfather's car accident left indelible marks—haunting memories of loss amid bureaucratic shadows that later fueled Chance's advocacy for veterans, transforming personal trauma into a lifelong crusade for better care and accountability. As his dominant Introverted Intuition (Ni) wove patterns from chaos, young Chance mediated sibling squabbles with a Diplomat's empathy, his Extraverted Feeling (Fe) absorbing joys and pains like a sponge, always seeking harmony in the household's ebb and flow. Structured play—mapping out epic quests in notebooks—hinted at his Judging (J) drive, while the world's injustices sparked an early fire for justice.
The Forge of Adolescence: Awakening the Idealist
Adolescence carried Chance across state lines—Louisiana to Texas, Colorado, Nevada, and beyond—each move a chapter in his nomadic tapestry, enriching his intuitive grasp of diverse cultures. Guitar strings became his confidant; he picked up the instrument young, channeling raw emotions into melodies that echoed his inner world. High school debates honed his tertiary Introverted Thinking (Ti), dissecting societal flaws with precision, while a community service stint at a local shelter awakened his inferior Extraverted Sensing (Se), pulling him from introspection into hands-on change. Bullied for his quiet depth, Chance learned to forge alliances, his Advocating Diplomat nature diffusing conflicts with words that uncovered hidden truths. Romances bloomed like summer storms—poetic and intense—but taught boundaries, refining his empathy into a tool for mentoring others through their own heartaches, all while he dreamed of a world mended by truth and compassion.
Adulthood: Architect of Quiet Revolutions
Chance's path meandered through healing and hustle: earning certificates in massage therapy (2002-2003) and real estate (2003), then life coaching (2015) and product design with a sustainability focus (2015-2018). As a realtor assistant at Coldwell Banker (2004-2009), he built bridges in bustling markets; later, as podcaster on Sheriff Says (2019-present) and DJ with PVMA (2022-present), his voice amplified stories of grit and reform. But politics called loudest. Starting as Precinct Committeeman in Phoenix (2015-2016), he rallied against corruption; as Precinct Commanding Officer in Las Vegas (2016-2018), he mobilized voters into forces of change; and in Juneau, Alaska (2018-2019), as Commanding Officer, he championed transparency amid icy resolve. Launching his nonpartisan presidential bid in 2020—and pressing on for 2024 and 2025—he's exposed entrenched powers, pushing platforms like the EconoBoost Plan for tax relief and cannabis reform, energy independence via renewables, and veteran-first healthcare overhauls to end profiteering.
Creative History: Prolific Extraordinare & More
Creativity surged in his writings: Ninja: The Boundaries of Bloodlust, a semi-autobiographical tale blending his life's edges with fiction, marked his debut as author CHANCE, followed by songs like "GHOST" that bare the soul's vulnerabilities. Volunteering wove through it all—cooking for Ronald McDonald House Charities, donating clothes and blankets to homeless shelters and veteran advocates, donating toys to Children's Hospitals, supporting Stand Up For Kids against youth homelessness—his Fe forging connections that turned strangers into allies. Now rooted in Pearland, Texas, with family as his anchor, Chance's partnerships thrive on mutual growth, his few deep friendships a testament to loyalty forged in fire.

"If I've positively impacted a Veteran just by acknowledging them and appreciating their service, then taking that moment to get their attention to say thanks for their service in the military is worth the effort taken. I love just having the experience of talking to Veterans. Some are pretty funny actually. Some are even fascinating."
