In an October 2025 interview, Chiles spoke about managing her busy schedule and focusing on her mental health.

"I disconnect myself from myself. I know that sounds weird, but I try to separate the Jordan who’s very focused from the one who’s hanging out with her friends. That one is different from the one who’s a dog mom, and that one is different from the one who competes. So really, I’ve been able to decompress by separating my worlds and just being present in the moment," she said. (via Marie Claire)

Chiles helped the UCLA Bruins finish as runners-up at the 2024 NCAA Gymnastics Championships. She won the NCAA uneven bars title and recorded the highest all-around total of the entire championship during the team final.
