    The Lonely Season: What It Feels Like to Be Without Friends (and How to Rebuild)

    Send us a text The Lonely Season: What It Feels Like to Be Without Friends (and How to Rebuild)Feeling alone isn’t a flaw—it’s a signal. In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie open up about the quiet ache of friend-loneliness: the empty calendar, the phone that doesn’t light up, and the stories you wish someone else remembered with you. Jennifer shares the distance and displacement of moving states to build a business (hi, Rhinestone Wedding Chapel life 👋), while Jackie talks candidly about isolation inside a controlling first marriage—how you can be surrounded by people and still feel utterly alone. Together, they unpack why women drift into lonely seasons without noticing, how to spot the signs (in yourself and your bestie), and what it looks like to stitch connection back together—one honest text, meme, FaceTime, or girls’ trip at a time. In this episode: Different kinds of isolation: geography, seasons of life, and relationship controlWhy friends help us remember who we were (and still are)Gentle first steps to reconnect when you feel awkward or out of practiceHow to check on a withdrawing bestie (without overthinking it)Long-distance friendship ideas that actually feel like “being there”Bestie Rapid Questions to end on a laugh and a little truthContent note: emotional isolation and controlling relationship dynamics.

    Send us a text New Year, Real Talk: Why Friendship Matters More With Age  Episode Description: As we get older, New Year’s hits different. It stops being about sparkly outfits and staying up till midnight, and starts becoming something deeper—a pause, a breath, a moment to feel the weight of everything we survived… and everyone who helped us survive it.  In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie look back at the friendships, memories, and lessons that shaped their year. From sleeping on sidewalks at 17 waiting for the Rose Parade, to ringing in the New Year at home by 10 p.m., the girls reflect on how time changes everything—except the importance of having your ride-or-die.  They talk about why friendship becomes more sacred with age, how New Year’s reminds us that time is moving faster than ever, and why choosing your people—intentionally and consistently—is the real resolution.  This episode is cozy, nostalgic, honest, and full of the reminder every woman needs:  Your friendships are the safety nets that carry you into every new year. Protect them. Prioritize them. And celebrate them.  In This Episode: ✨ New Year’s as a teenager vs. New Year’s at 55 ✨ Why time speeds up (and hits harder) as we age ✨ How friendships deepen when life gets more complicated ✨ What this year taught Jennifer & Jackie about loyalty, growth, and showing up ✨ Bestie Resolutions for 2025 ✨ Rapid-Fire Bestie Questions: New Year Edition  🎙️ Hosted by Jennifer & Jackie 💍 Presented by Bestiemony™ — Because not all soulmates come with a marriage license. ✨ Part of the Chickology™ Podcast Collective  🎵 Closing Song: “Definition of a Best Friend” by Brooke August & Hannah Rose Follow Brooke on YouTube: @brookeaugust  If this episode hit you in the feels—or made you laugh way too hard—we consider that a win.  Hit subscribe, leave us a review, and share it with your ride-or-die. 💛  This episode of Slightly Unsupervised was brought to you by the creators of Bestiemony®—the original friendship ceremony that proves soulmates don’t always come with a marriage license.

    Why Moms Think They Have to Do It All at Christmas (and How Besties Break the Spell)

    Send us a text Why Moms Think They Have to Do It All at Christmas (and How Besties Break the Spell) The holiday magic you see on the outside often comes at the cost of a mother’s sanity on the inside.  In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie dive into the emotional, mental, and invisible labor women carry every Christmas—the lists, the gifts, the decorating, the expectations, the pressure to make everyone else’s season “magical,” and the exhaustion no one seems to notice. Jennifer reflects on the generational patterns of motherhood, how traditions get passed down (or skipped entirely), and why women feel responsible for holding every holiday together. Jackie opens up about the self-imposed pressure to create perfection—why she does it, why she can’t stop, and how it somehow still brings her joy even when it burns her out. Together, they unpack where these beliefs start (hello childhood programming), how the “good girl/caretaker” identity shows up in December, and why moms secretly fear asking for help. And then there’s the bestie piece—the part that saves us.  Best friends are often the only ones who say, “You don’t have to carry all this.” They’re the ones we vent to, cry to, laugh with, and call when Christmas feels like a full-time job we never applied for. In this episode:  🎄 The generational roots of holiday pressure (grandmas, moms, and the invisible baton)  🎄 Why moms struggle to delegate or ask for help  🎄 The emotional labor women carry during the holidays (that no one talks about)  🎄 How partners often don’t see the extra load — and why  🎄 The moment every mom hits her Christmas breaking point  🎄 How besties help us stay grounded, laugh, and remember we don’t have to be Santa + Mrs. Claus + Superwoman  🎄 Bestie Rapid Questions to end on a laugh and a little truth Content note: conversations around emotional labor, overwhelm, and holiday pressure in mothering and partnership 🎵 Closing Song: “Definition of a Best Friend” by Brooke August & Hannah Rose Follow Brooke on YouTube: @brookeaugust If this episode hit you in the feels—or made you laugh way too hard—we consider that a win.

    Being There for a Bestie in Grief: Navigating the Holidays Without Losing Yourself

    Send us a text Being There for a Bestie in Grief: Navigating the Holidays Without Losing Yourself  Description: The holidays can be magical… until they aren’t. When your bestie is grieving the loss of her person—whether a spouse, partner, or the anchor of her family—the season hits differently. Suddenly the twinkle lights feel heavier, the memories sting sharper, and the pressure to “do it all” gets complicated. You want to show up for her, hold her together, make sure she doesn’t feel alone. But you’re also juggling your own family, your own joy, your own traditions—and sometimes it feels like you’re being stretched between her grief and your life.  In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie get real about what it truly looks like to support a grieving best friend during the holidays. They talk about showing up with compassion without abandoning yourself, why checking in matters more than saying the perfect thing, and the delicate balance between honoring your own traditions while making space for hers.  From navigating emotional triggers to understanding what grieving friends wish we knew, this episode is your gentle guide to loving her deeply while protecting your own heart. Because you can be her anchor without becoming her life raft—and sometimes the most powerful gift is simply, “You’re not doing this alone. I’m here.”  In This Episode: 💛 Why the holidays hit grief differently than everyday life [01:00] 🤍 How to show up without overstepping or smothering [05:10] 🎄 Balancing your own traditions with her emotional needs [12:00] 📩 What real checking-in looks like (and why it matters) [14:45] 🕯️ Why talking about the person they lost is often exactly what they need [17:00] 💞 The best gift you can give a grieving bestie [21:00] ✨ Bestie Rapid Fire: Holidays, healing, and the little moments that matter [23:00]  🎙️ Hosted by Jennifer & Jackie  💍 Presented by Bestiemony™ — Because not all soulmates come with a marriage license.  ✨ Part of the Chickology™ Podcast Collective  🎵 Closing Song: Definition of a Best Friend by Brooke August & Hannah Rose Follow Brooke on YouTube: @brookeaugust  If this episode hits you in the feels—or helps you love your bestie a little softer this season—send it to the friend who holds your heart.  🎧 Subscribe to Slightly Unsupervised for more real talk, deep laughs, and the truth about modern friendship.  This episode of Slightly Unsupervised was brought to you by the creators of Bestiemony®—the original friendship ceremony that proves soulmates don’t always come with a marriage license.

    Evolved, Unfiltered, and Still Us: The Truth About Where We Are Now

    Send us a text Episode Title: Evolved, Unfiltered, and Still Us: The Truth About Where We Are Now Description: We started this podcast with zero plans—just two best friends, a couple of mics we barely knew how to plug in, and a whole lot of chaos. What began as late-night stories, whispered confessions, and “do you remember when?” has slowly turned into something bigger: a space where women feel seen, heard, and a little less alone. In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie pull back the curtain on how far they’ve come—from nervous newbies who edited out every “like” and “um,” to the women behind Chickology™, a growing platform for real women and real stories. They talk about the tech fails, the laughter, the tears, and the unexpected gift of “bestie therapy” that recording every week has become. They also share how helping other women start their own podcasts has deepened their purpose, why women’s stories matter more than ever, and what it means to evolve without losing who you are at the core. This is about friendship, growth, courage, and saying out loud, “I’m not who I was when this started—and that’s a good thing.” If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to build something messy, meaningful, and completely from the heart… this one’s for you. In This Episode: 🎙️ How Slightly Unsupervised really started: two besties, big feelings, zero clue about the tech [02:30] 🔌 Mic fails, hookup boxes, and learning to podcast at 55 anyway [03:00] 💬 From over-editing every word to embracing real, imperfect conversation [06:30] 🧡 “Bestie therapy”: how weekly recording healed old stories and deepened their friendship [08:00] 🌙 Why women need women’s stories—and how Chickology™ was born out of that truth [11:30] 🔥 Turning pain into purpose: moving from victimhood to lessons and evolution [16:00] 🌎 The heart of Chickology™: creating a home for women who have something to say (even if they think they don’t) [18:30] 🌟 Dream guests, wild ideas that actually worked, and what’s next for the Chickology™ movement [20:00] 🎙️ Hosted by Jennifer & Jackie  💍 Presented by Bestiemony™ — Because not all soulmates come with a marriage license.  ✨ Part of the Chickology™ Podcast Collective Listen in, laugh with us, and if this episode nudges something in you… maybe it’s your turn to tell your story next. 🎧 Subscribe to Slightly Unsupervised and share this one with your ride-or-die bestie.

Women give sex for love.” (Yeah, they went there.)  With laughs, a few side-eyes at their husbands, and a lot of real talk, the girls remind us that female friendships aren’t competition—they’re the emotional translators keeping relationships alive.  Because sometimes, your husband can’t hear you… but your bestie always can. 💫  In This Episode: 🚀 The Mars/Venus rulebook for communication [02:00] 💋 The love-for-sex truth nobody wants to admit [07:30] 😂 Why men “fix” and women “feel” (and how to survive both) [10:00] 💞 Why female friendships make marriages stronger [18:00] 🔥 Bestie Rapid Fire: The Men vs. Women Edition [20:00]  🎙️ Hosted by Jennifer & Jackie 💍 Presented by Bestiemony™ — Because not all soulmates come with a marriage license. ✨ Part of the Chickology™ Podcast Collective  🎵 Closing Song: Definition of a Best Friend by Brooke August & Hannah Rose Follow Brooke on YouTube: @brookeaugust   Listen, laugh, and tag your bestie (and maybe your husband).  🎧 Subscribe to Slightly Unsupervised  This episode of Slightly Unsupervised was brought to you by the creators of Bestiemony®—the original friendship ceremony that proves soulmates don’t always come with a marriage license.

    Healing the Inner Child Through Friendship

    Send us a text Episode Title: Healing the Inner Child Through Friendship Description: Sometimes friendship isn’t just fun — it’s medicine. 💗 In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie dive into how safe, loving friendships can reparent the parts of us that never got the care, attention, or validation we needed as kids. From being the “parentified child” to learning how to receive love as adults, this episode gets real about what it means to grow up too fast — and how friendship gives us a second chance to feel safe again. They share stories from their Gen X childhoods, compare what it was like being the oldest vs. the youngest, and talk about how friendship has become their therapy — helping them rewrite old patterns, find support, and raise their inner children the way they always deserved. Because when your bestie listens without judgment, celebrates your smallest wins, or holds space for your tears — it’s not just friendship. It’s healing. It’s home. In This Episode: 👧 How Gen X “raised themselves” and what it cost us [03:00] 💔 The emotional toll of being the parentified child [04:30] 🌱 Why real friendship feels like reparenting [07:00] 🧠 How childhood patterns show up in adult relationships [10:00] ❤️ What safety and support from your bestie really means [18:00] ✨ Bestie Rapid Questions: Inner Child Edition [23:00] 🎙️ Hosts: Jennifer & Jackie 💫 Presented by: Chickology™ — real women, real stories, one honest truth at a time. 💍 Book your Bestiemony™ ceremony: RhinestoneWeddingChapel.com Suggested Tags (for Buzzsprout): Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie, Bestiemony, friendship podcast, women supporting women, healing the inner child, friendship healing, reparenting, Gen X women, emotional growth, real talk podcast, sisterhood, authentic friendship, childhood trauma healing, best friends, connection over perfection, healing through humor, women empowerment, female friendship, Chickology Podcast Collective Chickology PodcastsBold podcasts by women, for women.
