In this episode of Superlatively Yes, Tanya and Jen revisit the classic five love languages from The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman—and then lovingly (and hilariously) expand the list to include the ones that actually define their lives.

From "not having to explain the backstory" to "someone bringing you a Diet Coke without asking", this episode explores the deeply relatable—and often unspoken—ways we give and receive love as Gen X women.

They reflect on how love languages helped a generation finally feel seen, why personality tests exploded when they did, and how understanding yourself can lead to stronger relationships, less friction, and a whole lot more grace.

You'll hear:

A quick breakdown of the original five love languages

Why Gen X didn't grow up talking about emotional needs

Tanya & Jen's unofficial love languages (you will absolutely relate)
