  • From Knowing to Doing: Making Love Languages Work

    From Knowing to Doing: Making Love Languages Work
    Feb 24 2026
    This is the practical episode. Now it’s time to take everything we’ve learned in this series with Dr. Chapman—and actually use it. After breaking down what the love languages are (and what they aren’t), Dr. Gary Chapman joins me and John in the final conversation of our Love Languages series, to show us how to put them into practice in real life. We’ll break down what he calls the dialects of each love language—the specific ways love is expressed, received, and often misunderstood. Because knowing the language isn’t enough if you’re speaking it in a way that doesn’t land. We also dig into how love languages show up with kids, and how to recognize what our children are actually asking for. If you’ve ever thought, I’m trying—but it’s not working, this is where it finally clicks. Life Happens. Let’s talk about it.

    Feb 17 2026

But Dr. Gary Chapman—the expert behind The Five Love Languages—explains why that’s not quite right, and makes a crucial distinction between physical desire and emotional connection. John and I dig into what this really means for intimacy, unpacking the science behind male vs. female sexual needs and why understanding your partner’s love language can change everything. We also explore how love languages show up in parenting—and how to recognize them in your kids. ⚠️Warning: we go there. Sex, chemistry, and the truths you’ve been too polite to ask about.
