Episode 14 - Friendship Love Languages: Show up for your bestie in the way she feels it most.

Ever notice how we talk about love languages for couples, but rarely for friendships? In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie dive into the five love languages—words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch—and flip the script to see how they shape our closest friendships.

From blocking energy at a Vegas craps table (yes, really) to hand-made blankets, sourdough bread, and organizing your bestie’s chaos, they break down how each of them naturally gives and receives love in friendship. And they get real about what happens when love languages clash, why quality time matters most in their circle, and how little gestures often mean the most.

This one’s for every woman who knows her bestie isn’t “just a friend”—she’s family, therapy, and your mirror all rolled into one.

In This Episode:

• Why love languages aren’t just for couples [02:45]
• How Jennifer + Jackie’s friendship languages differ (and overlap) [07:20]
• Vegas craps tables + acts of service in disguise [13:40]
• The power of words of affirmation when you least expect it [19:15]
• When friendship love languages clash—and how to fix it [25:50]
• Why quality time is the glue that holds Gen X friendships together [32:30]
• The gifts that really land (and the ones that flop) [39:10]

If you’ve ever wondered how to show up for your bestie in a way she really feels, this episode is your cheat sheet.
