Episode 2: When Friendships Break: How We Found Our Way Back

What happens when your forever friend suddenly isn’t in your life anymore? In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie get real about what it’s like when a friendship falls apart—and the beautiful, messy process of putting it back together.

They open up about their own 15-year friendship gap, how social media became an unexpected lifeline, and what it really takes to heal from emotional distance. From red flags and hard conversations to laughter, forgiveness, and growth, this episode is a reminder that even broken bonds can be rebuilt—with love, honesty, and a little grace.

In This Episode:

• Life shifts that pulled them apart—and the silence that followed [07:31]
• The unexpected role of social media in rekindling connection [11:52]
• How to apologize (and actually mean it) [16:06]
• Why friendship ceremonies matter and how Bestiemony® came to life [20:35]
• Their journey back to each other—and why they’re stronger now [24:40]

Whether you’re in the middle of a friend breakup or wondering if it’s time to reach back out, this one’s for you.
