Do Love Languages Really Matter?

What makes you feel loved might not be what your partner needs to feel loved - and that's where so many couples miss each other. In this playful, practical episode (yes, complete with Joree's giggles and Dr. John's faces 🙃), we revisit Gary Chapman's five love languages - Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Acts of Service, Physical Touch, and Gifts - and talk through five powerful additional love languages from Dr. Elizabeth Frederick: Consistency, Nurture, Attunement, Vulnerability, and Foreplay (the all-day kind, not just the 10 minutes before sex). You'll hear real-life examples, how to stop giving what you want and start giving what lands for your partner, and learn simple scripts to ask for love in ways that actually get met. Watch this one on YouTube to see the antics - and stay for the tools that deepen safety, intimacy, and connection.

You'll learn:

• How to identify your top 2 love languages—and your partner's (they likely will differ!)

• The "positive lens" shift that turns small annoyances into bids for closeness

• A quick check for consistency (actions > words) that builds everyday trust

• Gentle, non-defensive scripts to share needs and receive them with grace

• Why attunement + vulnerability = faster repairs and hotter chemistry

• Easy, all-day foreplay ideas across emotional, mental, and physical realms

If you're ready to give and receive real and authentic love, this episode is for you - and be sure to catch the full video on YouTube. Want to go deeper with us? Visit loveisntenough.net for our 12-part masterclass or to explore couples therapy.
