7. The Summer I Learned about Love Languages

Are you as obsessed with The Summer I Turned Pretty as much as we are?! Spoiler alert - the bffs talk about the latest episode of TSITP (Season 3 Episode 8), so if you haven't watched it yet, skip ahead! Not only do we go over the epic episode, but we all took a quiz and learned about our Love Languages. We then analyzed the characters and gave our professional opinions on what we think their love languages are. If you want to take the Love Language quiz, this is the one we took! https://5lovelanguages.com/quizzes/love-language (no need to purchase anything, you should be able to see a breakdown of your results for free!)

She also runs a tutoring and consulting business, where she partners with families to support students' academic journeys and helps parents navigate the special education evaluation and IEP process. We learned a ton in this episode and we are so grateful Samantha was able to come hang with us. The title of this episode pretty much explains what we talk about, but in case you need more! - we talked about childhood dyslexia, adhd, anxiety, and what you can do to help your kiddos.

4. Welcome Back to the 2000's

Wassup?! Talk to the hand. No, duh. Loser, loner, whateverrrrrr. Those are just some of the phrases you'll hear in this week's episode! The bffs go back in time, recreating their early 2000's outfits and reminiscing about all their favorite things from the good ol' days. Let us know what we forgot about in the comments!

3. Hear Me Out

This week, the bffs talk about going out on a night in their 20's vs their 30's. Plus, they go over some of their best/funniest/weirdest dating experiences. They also play a really fun game called "Hear Me Out" and "Hot or Just Famous"! Let us know if you agree in the comments, and give us some of your hear me outs! **Disclaimer** We had some major technical difficulties with the audio on this one, but we had SO much fun making this episode and really wanted to share it with you! Hopefully you can stick with us and enjoy it as much as we did!
