When your best friend's marriage is crumbling, how do you show up without losing yourself?  Jennifer and Jackie explore what it really means to be a platonic soulmate during marital crisis—the emotional labor, the boundaries, and how to stay grounded while witnessing her fall apart.   Because sometimes the most powerful thing a woman can hear during a hard season is:   “You are not going through this alone.”  Chickology PodcastsBold podcasts by women, for women.

    Why We’re Basically Thelma & Louise | Ride-or-Die Female Friendships

    Send us Fan Mail Why We’re Basically Thelma & Louise | Ride-or-Die Female Friendships  At some point in every strong female friendship, there’s a moment where you realize:  “If society collapses… this is the woman I’m getting in the car with.” In this hilarious, nostalgic, and unexpectedly emotional episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie explain why their friendship has serious Thelma & Louise energy — minus the driving off the cliff part.   From ditching school and surviving questionable 80s adventures to navigating adulthood, burnout, motherhood, responsibility, and emotional exhaustion, they unpack why ride-or-die female friendships become so important as women get older.   They talk about:    Why women need female friendships to survive emotionally  The difference between “fun friends” and true ride-or-die friendships  How women lose themselves in responsibility  Why girls' trips feel emotionally healing  The chaos, freedom, and loyalty behind lifelong friendships  Why women need spaces where they can stop performing and just be themselves  Jennifer and Jackie also share some completely unhinged stories from their younger years involving spinning cars, trunks, mountain roads, and the kind of questionable decisions that somehow only make friendships stronger.   Because sometimes the greatest love story in a woman’s life isn’t romantic at all…  it’s the friend who looked at your chaos and said:   “Get in. I’ve got you.”  Chickology PodcastsBold podcasts by women, for women. Real talk.

    Sisters by Blood, Best Friends by Choice | The Female Connection Women Need

    Send us Fan Mail Sisters by Blood, Best Friends by Choice | The Female Connection Women Need Some women grow up with sisters. Some spend their whole lives searching for one. In this emotional and deeply relatable episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie talk about the difference between sisters and best friends — and why female friendship can sometimes fill a space in our hearts that family never could. Growing up without sisters, both Jennifer and Jackie reflect on the loneliness, emotional disconnect, and longing for feminine connection they experienced as kids growing up in the 80s. They share how friendship became more than just having someone to hang out with — it became emotional safety, shared history, validation, laughter, survival, and chosen family. They dive into:  Why women crave emotional witnessing  The difference between assigned family and chosen family  How childhood loneliness shapes adult friendships  Why some best friends become closer than sisters  The emotional role female friendship plays in women’s lives  What makes a woman feel emotionally safe  Why being truly “seen” changes everything This episode is funny, nostalgic, vulnerable, and packed with the kind of honest conversation that makes you feel less alone. Because sometimes the greatest love story in a woman’s life isn’t romantic at all… it’s the friend who became family. Chickology PodcastsBold podcasts by women, for women. Real talk.

    Raising Good Friends | Teaching Daughters What We Didn't Learn About Female Friendship

    Send us Fan Mail Raising Good Friends: What We Didn’t Learn (But Our Daughters Need to Know)  Most of us were never actually taught how to be good friends—we were taught to be nice, to include others, and to keep the peace. But no one showed us how to handle jealousy, navigate conflict, set boundaries, or speak up when something doesn’t feel right.  In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie get real about what we didn’t learn growing up—and why it matters now more than ever as we raise the next generation of girls.  From childhood friendship struggles to adult relationship patterns, they share personal stories, hard-earned lessons, and honest conversations about how friendships shape our lives. They also break down how parents can help their daughters build strong, healthy, emotionally safe friendships—without losing themselves in the process.  You’ll hear real talk about:   Why “being nice” isn’t enough in friendships  How to teach kids emotional awareness and boundaries  Why conflict resolution is a skill every child needs  The impact of social media on modern friendships  How to help girls handle jealousy, exclusion, and comparison  Why not every friendship should end when things get hard  If you’ve ever struggled with friendships—or want to raise daughters who won’t have to unlearn what you did—this episode is for you.   Because friendship isn’t something we’re just supposed to “figure out.”  It’s something we should have been taught.   Chickology PodcastsBold podcasts by women, for women.
