I am Kate Hudson and my name is Oliver Hudson. 2 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: We wanted to do something that highlighted our relationship and 3 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: what it's like to be siblings. We are a sibling railvalry. No, no, sibling. 4 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: You don't do that with your mouth revelry. That's good, Oliver. 5 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: This was maybe one of my favorite episodes we've ever done. 6 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 1: Oh me too, so Doctor Gary Chapman wrote the five 7 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: Love Languages. Yes, and since we have had them on 8 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: which has literally been a week, I mean we did 9 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: this like a week ago. I got three of them. 10 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: I got the five I have Love Languages of Teenagers. 11 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: I can't wait to read that one. I didn't even 12 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: know he did that. Neither did I. I got the 13 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: five Love Languages of Children, and then I got just 14 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: the regular one. It's so great. I bought a Mom 15 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: and Pa one too, and I love it. I think too. 16 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: It's almost like it's like one of the stories he tells, 17 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: which I'm not going to ruin, but it's one of 18 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: the stories he tells where you when he put it 19 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: in a way where you understand, it's like creating a 20 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: new dictionary of love, Like, oh, that's me. You can 21 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: relate to something that you didn't realize you could actually 22 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: categorize and look at and go, oh, I have a 23 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: love language. And now I didn't even know that that 24 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: was my love language. And that was what wasn't feeling 25 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: like it was being met, you know. And then and 26 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: then we you know, I remember when I first did 27 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: the quiz and with Danny and we both are. Number 28 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: one is quality time, which is why even when we 29 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: have sort of I mean, we don't have like like 30 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: rough patches sound stupid, but you know, when we have 31 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: our moments, it's sort of we know that we're really good. 32 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: We can reset really well when we spend time together 33 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: and we do something together and it's just us, you know. Yeah, 34 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: it was Valentine's Day, I know, and Danny created this 35 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: picnic and it was so beautiful and he like put 36 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: it all out and did you know he loves doing 37 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: the picnics and we had wine, and I thought, like, 38 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: that's all I want is that time with him. You know, 39 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: that's just us. I know, that's so fun. I forgot. 40 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: I forgot that that five love languages Doctor Gary Chapman 41 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: is coming out in our Valentines. That's sort of like 42 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: our Valentine's Day week. Yes, it's the week of love 43 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: and he also we were talking about how you can 44 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: have more than one, and I'm I have two that 45 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: are really close together, right, So I'm quality time and 46 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: words of affirmation. You are like five hundred percent physical 47 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: touch okay? Oh no, no, no, I was waiting for 48 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: you to finish because I redid it after we had 49 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: him on. Yeah. Actually, honestly, I did it for the 50 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: first time. I just assumed that I was physical touch, 51 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: and I am. But I'm exactly even with quality time. 52 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: So I'm quality time and physical touch like like it 53 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: was like almost like thirty three percent. That's Danny. So 54 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: Danny is the same. He's quality time and physical touch. 55 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: What's Aaron? Oh, acts of service like one hundred percent okay, 56 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: and quality time time with you. No, it's quality time 57 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: and act and do things for me exactly. She doesn't 58 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: need me to be there just as long as I do. 59 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: Think physical touch is like her lease, Yeah, I isn't 60 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: that funny. It's it's it's and again it's because she 61 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: had so much of it. Exactly. It's really interesting how 62 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: you become or how your love language becomes your love 63 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: language yeah, it's a good point. I mean, did this 64 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: is it learned or is it is it nature or nurture. 65 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's got to be a little bit of 66 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: both maybe. But I mean if you think about it, 67 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: we're both quality time and that like kind of focus 68 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: of energy means that we feel loved, which means we 69 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: probably needed more of that when we were younger, that 70 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: there was something that lacked in you know, it's a 71 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: little bit more quality time was a need, you know, 72 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: which then probably translate and translates into that as a 73 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: relationship that when you have that, it's what makes you 74 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: feel the most loved, you know. You know what's so 75 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: interesting is when when doctor Gary came on, I was 76 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: like shocked because I picturing some like rock and roll 77 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: guy or something like just love man, like like like 78 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: you know, some like like Bombware. He's like it's like 79 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: Phil Lesh, yeah, like and it was not. I mean, 80 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: he's he's just wearing the suit and the tie and 81 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, he talks a bit about how this 82 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: came about for him, and oh I love it. And 83 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: you know what I realized too, it's like people love 84 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: love love love is not easy, and it's like something 85 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: that people like we take love for granted a lot 86 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: of the time, and it's also the one thing that 87 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: is the hardest. It's like when you look at people, 88 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: everyone's searching to feel loved and to give love and 89 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: to find love. And I mean love is like the 90 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: big subject matter of life. Well, I mean it's yeah, 91 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: it's it's it's the it's the foundation, right, I mean 92 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: that's it. Yes, and yet it and yet it seems 93 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: so challenging all the time, meaning like getting your heart 94 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: broken or chasing the wrong types of love, or with 95 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: your kids and having complicated relationships sometimes with your kids, 96 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: and I mean love seems to be at the center 97 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: of all of that. And he really does. He did 98 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: say one thing, and again, I don't want to ruin it, 99 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: but he but it made me really think and I 100 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: can't stop thinking about it, which is being heard, and 101 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: I think that's such a huge thing. Kids like listening 102 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: to your kids feeling like a big part of love 103 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 1: is trying to understand how someone else needs to feel loved. 104 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: Love is as selfless as it gets, especially with the kids. 105 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: That was a big thing for me because I always 106 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: put into my terms when I read his book, but 107 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: I never thought about my children because I sort of 108 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: loved them all the same way. And then after having 109 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: this conversation with him, like, oh shit, I never put 110 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: that into the children's perspective and loving your kids the 111 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: way that they need to be loved, you know. I 112 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: sat being down literally after we had the interview with 113 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: doctor Chapman, and I asked him flat out, I said, 114 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: what makes you feel the most loved? And he was like, 115 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: what do you mean? And I we had this really 116 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: cool conversation with this doctor talking about how we all 117 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: have love languages, and he was so engaged in the 118 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: conversation like he he loved it. And then we gave 119 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: him all of the love languages like and I said, 120 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: you know, where do you feel like you're the safest? 121 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: Like where do you feel like you're getting what you 122 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: need and it makes you feel like Mommy loves you, 123 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: you know, and you're so loved and everything is good? 124 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: And he was like, oh, physical touch, hands down, He's 125 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: like I just want to cuddle, like physical touch. Did 126 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: you did you tell him that there's a gift one 127 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: or did you did you hold that one back? Yeah? Yes, 128 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: yes I told him a gift, But I said four 129 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: language love. I told him about the gift one but 130 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: I but Danny reiterated, you know, gifts aren't about things. 131 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: Gifts are about like mommy picking you a flower and 132 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: bringing it to you in the morning, you know, or 133 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: something like that. You know, Yeah, I'm going to do 134 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: the kids. I'm gonna like, I'm going to sit them 135 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: down and do the quiz with them. Fun. It's fun. 136 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: And when when he said that, it's true because that's 137 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: how he shows love, like how he is with Ronnie. 138 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: He just wants to like make her feel loved by 139 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: holding her. And you know, Ronnie was having a little 140 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: bit of a melt a two year old meltdown and 141 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: being just like held heered today and he said it's okay, 142 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: You're fine, It's okay. And I was like, oh my god. 143 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: Bing's nature is to touch totally. That's that's that's obvious, 144 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: I think because being hugs and comes up to you 145 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: and doesn't say anything. It just will hug you. And 146 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: you know, he's very touchy, feeling and writer is a 147 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: full words of affirmation, like you got he looks good, 148 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: you got every fine. You know, they're all different. It's 149 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: really interesting. I know, I think everyone needs this book, 150 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 1: like everyone at least needs to know what their love 151 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: language is and their partners. You know, yeah, it's important 152 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: and it will it helps. I mean it truly helps. 153 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean it just helps you communicates. It's it's a fact. 154 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: But anyway, Yeah, this was such a love conversation. He 155 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: was so nice and lovely. He had such a calm. Yeah, 156 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: I know, I'm going to want to read My Therapist, 157 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: I know, just just for like the celebrity aspect, and like, 158 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: you know what my therapist is five love languages. Don't 159 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: be good chat guy, that's my guy. Oh all right, 160 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: well I love you. Oh wait, But we also didn't 161 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: mention that because I was going to say something I 162 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: was like about love languages and siblings and family. But 163 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: he also talked about the workplace, yes, which I think 164 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: is really interesting because there's so many people that feel 165 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: really unhappy in their in their work life and they 166 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: feel underappreciated and undervalued, and that's it's I think the 167 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: numbers were pretty shocking. So he also talks about how 168 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: you can you can take these love languages into the 169 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: art office place, and he does that to eliminating eliminating 170 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: physical touch. He talks about that clearly, this is not 171 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, physical touch is not something that you just 172 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: go up to and and start touching someone who feels uncomfortable. Right, 173 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: But he talks about physical touch like asking himself, do 174 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: you feel left out when someone gives someone else a 175 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: high five? Is that something that you makes you feel 176 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: good when someone comes back gives you a high five 177 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: or kind of punches you on the shoulder a little bit, 178 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: like you know, there there is a language of physical 179 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: touch in the workplace that can be appropriate. Clearly. Yeah, 180 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,559 Speaker 1: if you go up and, you know, touch somebody and 181 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: they're like, please don't touch me, then you don't touch them, sure, 182 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: Or or if you're like, uh, You're like Alan, look, 183 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: I just want to do some more high fives. I 184 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: just think that will make me feel feel more. I'll 185 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: just feel better in the office place, Like when you 186 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: pass me, just do me some high Yeah. And then 187 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: Alan's like that makes me uncomfortable, you know, Alan, is 188 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: there something else I can do? Maybe just tap my desk, 189 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: you know, like give me a just like the lock 190 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 1: on my desk. Yeah. Anyway, Well, this was great. I 191 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: hope he's amazing and it's not just the one book 192 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: I read a couple of them on the beginning of 193 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: this intro, but there are also a few other ones, 194 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: So pick them up, pick them up. Stuff all right, 195 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: love you, love you. We're so excited. Thank you for 196 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: joining us with you. We just have to say that 197 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: this book has been a part of our relationships now 198 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: for a long time. Yes, good, good. I am such 199 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: a fan of your work and what this has not 200 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: only created, but honestly, I think that there's a lot 201 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: of people out there who know this book, that it's 202 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: chained the way they see themselves in relationships. Yeah, and 203 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: I guess I guess the first question off to bat 204 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: is I mean, I'm sure this is years of work 205 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: in the making, but what sort of prompted you to 206 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: start moving into talking about what a love language is? 207 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: You know, like, how did that come about? Yeah? Well, 208 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: it was not an idea that just jumped in my 209 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: mind one day. It really grew out of my counseling 210 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: and the first time I remember becoming aware of the 211 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: reality that what makes one person feel loved doesn't make 212 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: another person feel loved. It was a couple and I've 213 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: never seen them. I found out they've been married to 214 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: each other for thirty years, and she said in the 215 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 1: midst of the counseling the first session, she said, doctor Tamman, 216 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: the real problem in our marriage is I don't feel 217 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: any love coming from him. We're just like roommates living 218 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: in the same house. He does his thing, I do 219 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: my thing, and I just don't feel any love. She said. 220 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: It's just like I feel so empty. And she said, 221 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: I just can't go on like this. I looked at him, 222 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: and he said, I don't understand her. I do everything 223 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: I can to show her that I love her, and 224 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: she sits there and says she doesn't feel love. I said, well, 225 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: what do you do to show your love to her? 226 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: He said, well, I get home from work before she does, 227 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: so I start the evening meal and sometimes I have 228 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: it ready when she gets home, if not, she'll help me. 229 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: And then we eat. And after we eat, he said, 230 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: I wash the dishes. And he said on Thursday night 231 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: I vackum the floors, and every Saturday I wash the car, 232 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: I mow the grass. I help her with the laundry. 233 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: And he went on. And I was beginning to wonder, 234 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: what does this woman do. It sounded to me like 235 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: he was doing everything. And he said I do all 236 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: of that, and she says she doesn't feel love. Well, 237 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: I look back at her and she started crying, and 238 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: she said, doctor Chapman, he's right. He's a hard work 239 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: in men. But we don't ever talk. We haven't talked 240 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: in twenty years. He's always mowing the grass, washing the dish, 241 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: always doing something. And I realized here was a sincere 242 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: husband who was loving his wife and the best way 243 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: he knew how, and a wife who didn't get it. 244 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: And after that, I heard similar stories over and over 245 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: in my office, and I knew there had to be 246 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: a pattern to this. So eventually what I did was 247 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: sit down and read several years of notes that I 248 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: made when I was counselor and asked myself the question 249 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: when someone said I feel like my spouse doesn't love me, 250 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: what did they want? What were they complaining about? And 251 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: the answer is full in the five categories. And I 252 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: later called them the five love languages, and I started 253 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: using that in my counselor. If you want her to 254 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: feel love, you've got to express love in her language. 255 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: If you want him to feel love, you've got to 256 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: use his language. And I would help couples discover their 257 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: love language, challenge them to go home and try it, 258 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: and sometimes they would come back in three weeks and say, Gary, 259 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: this is changing everything. I mean, the whole climate's different now. 260 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: And then I started using with small groups of couples, 261 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: and probably five years later, I thought, you know, if 262 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: I could put this concept in a book, write it 263 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: in the language of the common person, leave out the 264 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: psychological jargon, maybe I could help a lot of couples. 265 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: I would never have time to see my office. That's 266 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: how it all happened, and little er. Did you expect 267 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: this to be as massive as it became. Absolutely not. 268 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: I knew the concept would help people, but I had 269 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: no idea that it would sell. Now they told me 270 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: a week ago fifteen million copies in English and it's 271 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: been translated in over fifty languages. Wow, but it's so important. 272 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: You know, we talk a lot on our podcast about family, 273 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: but it all comes down to love and how you 274 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: feel loved. And you really did boil it down to 275 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: something that at least my brain can relate, like the 276 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: way that your book is written out. And then when 277 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: you take the quiz, you know, you take like a 278 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: love language quiz and everything and you hear it. You're like, yes, 279 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,959 Speaker 1: I am definitely a words of affirmation person, right, I 280 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: need to communicate. Oliver is all physical. He just needs 281 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: people to like. You know, you can tell me how 282 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: great I am. It doesn't mean a thing, you know. 283 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, you can do dishes, you can 284 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: take this that treat. I'm like, I just touch me. 285 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: That's all I care about. And it does change. It's 286 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: almost like it changes your brain chemistry. I mean, I'm 287 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: going to share something, honey, do you mind if I 288 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: share something about our experience? Okay? So we were arguing, 289 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: and we're always trying to figure out how we can 290 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: like love each other in the best way we know how. 291 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: And we were having an argument and I looked at Danny. 292 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: I could sense that he was feeling a so much anxiety, 293 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: and I realized that his love language is touch, and 294 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: I just went over to him and I kind of 295 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: just put my hand on him and I was like, 296 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: you know, babe, I love you, and his whole body 297 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: chemistry shifted. And that's when I was really like, Wow, 298 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:28,479 Speaker 1: for me, if Danny affirms something for me, tells me 299 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: I love you, I hear you, I understand what you're saying. 300 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: What you're saying is this, you're a very talented actor. No, no, 301 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: it's not even that businesswoman. It's more like I need 302 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: to know where Okay, can you have all of them? 303 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: Can you have all of that? I mean I have 304 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: people who say to me, you know, my wife has 305 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: all five of them or my husband has all five 306 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: of them, And I say, well, that may anything you do, 307 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: you get credit for it. But I think I find 308 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: that most commonly among people who are two kinds of people. 309 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: One people who always fell love growing up. Their parents 310 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: probably spoke all these languages, you know, more or less, 311 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: and they've always fell loved. They got married and their 312 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: spouse intends to speak all of them, and they feel loved, 313 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: and they don't know which one is more important than 314 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: the other. It's just they fill love. And in that case, 315 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: I say, don't worry about it. You know, if you 316 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: feel loved, that's that's the whole purpose. So uh. But 317 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: the other, the other typical thing is it's the person 318 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: who grew up who never felt loved. They didn't feel 319 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: loved by their parents. They grew up to adults not 320 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: feeling loved. Uh. Maybe they get married, maybe they don't 321 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: but they have relationships and they just they don't they 322 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,479 Speaker 1: don't fill up and and and in their mind they 323 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: really they don't really know what what does it feel 324 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: like to feel loved? They don't know. And that's a 325 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: much deeper problem, of course, which you have to look 326 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,479 Speaker 1: back and in their in their past and probably and 327 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: one of the things I've seen to be effective is 328 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: if they are stand the love language concept and they 329 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: look back on their childhood, they'll probably see that their 330 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: parents did speak one or more of these languages. It 331 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: says they didn't get it because that was not their language. 332 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: In fact, I had a young single adult I was 333 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: speaking in Angola prison in Louisiana, and about three hundred 334 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: men showed up, and I said, I just want to 335 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: explain to you, help you understand why you felt love 336 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: or didn't feel loved growing up. And I shared the 337 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: love language and that concept in that context. And the 338 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: young man stood up at the Q and A I 339 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: judged to be about thirty, and he said, I want 340 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: to thank you for being here today because for the 341 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: first time in my life, I understand my mother loves me. 342 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: He said, you gave those languages and I knew my 343 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: language as soon as I heard it was physical touch. 344 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: He said, my mother never hugged me. The only hug 345 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 1: I ever remember getting from my mother was the day 346 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: I left for prison. Then he said it, but you 347 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: gave those other languages, and I realized my mother spoke 348 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: acts of service. He said. She was a single mom. 349 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: She kept had two jobs, she kept food on the table, 350 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: She washed my clothes, she hired my shirts. But this 351 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: time he was crying and he said, Mama loves me. 352 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: Mama loves me. I cried right now. Yeah, the fund 353 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: the fundamental thing that will make it. We said, like 354 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: love is the answer, but like it really is the answer, 355 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: you know. You know what's interesting, though, is there is 356 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 1: sacrifice you have to make in trying to give your 357 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: partner the love language that they need. Because I find 358 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: that sometimes maybe if acts of service is not easy 359 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: for me, or you know, physical touch might not be 360 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: easy for me to give because it, you know, you 361 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: have to be vulnerable to do that, you know, so 362 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 1: there's a struggle there. I mean, do you find that 363 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: you have patience or clients who they know their love languages, 364 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: but it's just so difficult for them to act on it. 365 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: You know, it does take effort, There's no question about it. 366 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: And if your spouse or your friend, if they're number one, 367 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 1: is your number five, that is the least important to you. 368 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: There's a learning curve because first of all, you can't 369 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: imagine that they would be meaningful to them because it's 370 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: not meaningful to you. So you have to accept the 371 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 1: reality that we're different. And then it is a choice. 372 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: You know, we choose to communicate love in their language 373 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: or not. I had a husband say to me sometime ago. 374 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 1: He said, Gary, my wife and I read your book 375 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: and we took the quiz, and she tells me that 376 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: her language is acts of service. But I'm going to 377 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: tell you and her, if it's going to take my 378 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: washing dishes and my vacuuming floor is for her to 379 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: feel love, she can forget that, right Yeah. And I said, 380 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: that's your choice. I said, love is a choice. I said, 381 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: if you choose to live with a wife who has 382 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: what I call a empty love tank, then that's your choice. 383 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: I said, I'm much prefer to live with a wife 384 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: who has a full love tank. I've lived with both 385 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: same woman, the early years empty love tank, later years 386 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: full love tank. I said, I much prefer the latter woman. 387 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: I said, that's why I washed the dishes, and I 388 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: vacuum the floor and I take out the trash, and 389 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: she tells me that I'm the greatest husband in the world. Yeah, 390 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: so she likes an active service. That's my wife too. 391 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: I mean, if I'm doing dishes or or or you know, 392 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,239 Speaker 1: vacuuming or just cleaning in general, it's she loves it. 393 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 1: I mean, she actually feels amorous and it's like, you know, 394 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's funny how that sexuality does translate into 395 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: love language as well, because there's a connectedness that you feel, 396 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: and it's a turn on as well, no, no question 397 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: about it too. And particularly if a wife does not 398 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: feel loved by the husband, that can be a little 399 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: desire for intimacy, you know, But if she feels loved, 400 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: it's far far easier and far more likely she's drawn 401 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: to him because she's he feels his love. Yeah, it 402 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: affects all the rest of life, Doctor Chapman. For the 403 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: listeners that don't know what the five languages are, can 404 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: you just quickly go through what the five are? Sure? 405 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: And these are no particular order of importance. One is 406 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: words of affirmation, which we've been talking about, you know, 407 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: just looking for things about your spouse or your friend 408 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: that you appreciate and verbalizing it. There's an ancient Hebrew 409 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: proverb that says life and death is in the power 410 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: of the tongue. You can kill people by the way 411 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: you talk to them, or you can give them life. 412 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: For some people, words is what makes them feel love. 413 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: And then there's acts of service, which we've been talking about, 414 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: doing things for the other person. Remember the old saying 415 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: action speak louder than words. If this is your language, 416 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: they will speak louder than words. If it's not your language, 417 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: they may not speak louder than words. And then there's gifts. 418 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: It's universal to give gifts as an expression of love. 419 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: The gift says they were thinking about me, Look what 420 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: they got from me. And the gift doesn't have to 421 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: be expensive. We've always said it's the thought that counts, 422 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: but I remind people it's not the thought left in 423 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: your head that counts. It's the gift that came out 424 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: of the thought in your head. Okay. And then quality 425 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: time giving them your undivided attention. And I do not 426 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 1: mean sitting on the couch. WA's in television together, someone 427 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: else is your attention. TV is off, computers are down, 428 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: We're not answering our phone. We're looking at each other. 429 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: We're listening, we're talking, we're sharing thoughts and ideas and feelings. 430 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: We're really giving them your undivided attention. And it doesn't 431 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,479 Speaker 1: always have to be a sit down conversation. And there 432 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: are many dialects within all of these languages. It can 433 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 1: be planning a flower garden in the front yard. But 434 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: the thing important thing is not the flower garden. The 435 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: important thing is you're giving your time here with me 436 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: to do something I enjoy doing so quality time. And 437 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: then physical touch. And we've long known the power of 438 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,959 Speaker 1: physical touch, the emotional power. That's why we pick up 439 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: babies and hold them and kiss them and cuddle them 440 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: long before the baby understands the meaning of the word love. 441 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: The baby feels love by physical touch. So and the 442 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: basic idea, of course, is that out of the five, 443 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: each of us has a primary love language. Listen, we're 444 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: not gonna we're not gonna reject any one of these. 445 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: We can feel love in any one of these, but 446 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: one of them is primary. And if we don't get 447 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: the primary, we will not feel loved even though the 448 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: other person is speaking some of the other languages. Now, 449 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: was there a sixth that didn't make the cut? You know? 450 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: I did. I only discovered the five and I wasn't dogmatic. 451 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: And since then people have told me. You know, one 452 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: guy said, Doc Chiman, there is a six love language. 453 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 1: I said, what is it? He said, chocolate. I said, well, 454 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: if they bought it, it's a gift. If they made it, 455 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: it's an act of service. When I did the survey, 456 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: it was actually the number count was tied, so I 457 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: was quality time and then words of affirmation. So when 458 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: that happens, is it because just two things are as 459 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: important as the other. Usually, yeah, there are people for 460 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: whom number one and number two are very very close. 461 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: I call them bilingual okay to me, And in a 462 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: sense that makes it easier for the other person because 463 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: there's two things they can do and either one of 464 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: them is going to really speak loudly to the other person. 465 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: Is there any follow up? You know? I mean, is 466 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: there any way to expand on this book or bring 467 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: something else out? You know? Or well, you know, I've 468 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: written a whole series of books. That was the original 469 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: book and then the second one was the Five Love 470 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 1: Languages of Children. It's written to parents of elementary age children. 471 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: Oh that's great and it is powerful. God, I say 472 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 1: to parents, the question is not do you love your children? 473 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: The question is do your children feel loved? Yes? Yeah? 474 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: I mean parents by nature love their children. You know, 475 00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say, do you like 476 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: your kids? Yeah. Then the next in the series was 477 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: the five Love Language of Teenagers, because teenagers are different, 478 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: they're going through a different stage of life, and how 479 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: do you effectively love them? There? And then for single 480 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: adults Five Love Languages for singles, and there I apply 481 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: the concept to their relationship with their parents, their siblings, 482 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: their college roommates, their dating partners, their work associates. And 483 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: then I wrote one for military couples called the Military Edition. 484 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: And I wrote that because so many I spoke on 485 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: many many military bases, and so many military chaplains and 486 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: others said, yeah, you got to write one for the 487 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: military and deal with how do we express love when 488 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 1: we're deployed? Love that? And we interviewed scorers and scores 489 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: of military couples to get ideas. Because the military has 490 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: been using the original book for years. We got great ideas. 491 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: For example, you would think that physical touch would impossible 492 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: if you're half world away. One lady said, Gary, I 493 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: knew his love language is physical touch. So while he 494 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: was deployed, I put my hand on a sheet of paper, 495 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: I trace my hand, and I mailed it to him 496 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: with a note that said, put your hand on my hand. 497 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: I won't hold your hand. Oh God, And he said, Gary, 498 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: every time I put my hand on that paper, I felter. 499 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: So it's not literal, but it's that's too much. That's 500 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: too much for me. Oh God? Now are are? Are 501 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: the languages the same within the book? It's just about 502 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: how they're perceived by the teenage the same language. It's 503 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: just applying it in different settings jail and more recently, 504 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: I've done several co author books. One how this works 505 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: in a blended family because parent step parent is there's 506 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: different dynamics there than in a biological family, so we 507 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: deal with that. One is how to love languages applies 508 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,479 Speaker 1: when you lose a baby, because that puts a stress 509 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: on a marriage. Often the grieving processes are different, and 510 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: so forth. And then how this works with special needs 511 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: children because again the dynamics are different, but so in 512 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: all of these basically have come by requests of people, 513 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: and I teamed up with someone who had had used 514 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: the love language in all of these settings, you know. 515 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: And so if I do a co author, I'm going 516 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: to author with somebody that knows more about the subject 517 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: than I do. And they've taken the five Love Days 518 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: and applied it, you know, in that area. And so yeah, 519 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: we just we're just trying to touch people where they 520 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: are and help them out in the various wonderful with 521 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: the kid with kids, I got to read that one 522 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: because it makes so much sense now, I mean, I 523 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: never applied it to my children for some reason. My 524 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: oldest wilder, you know, he's sort of sensitive in physical 525 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: like you touch him and he gets a little squirmy, 526 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: and for me, I get frustrated. I'm like, let me 527 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,479 Speaker 1: just fucking love you. But now I'm realizing that's not 528 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: his thing, you know what I mean, Like that physical 529 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: is not his the way that he wants to feel 530 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: love well, or my question would then be two or 531 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: is it that he doesn't he's not understanding how to 532 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: receive it. I don't, I don't know. We gotta you 533 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: gotta go into therapy answered to this, Well, you know, 534 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: you can actually discover a child's love language by the 535 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: time they're four years old by just observing their behavior. Yeah, 536 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: when my son was at age and I would come 537 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: home from work, he would run to the door, grab 538 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: my legs and climb on me. He's touching me because 539 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: he wants to be touched. My daughter never did that 540 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: at that age. She would say, Daddy, come into my room. 541 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: I want to show you something. She wanted quality time, 542 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: undivided attention. And of course they're grown that. But don't 543 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: touch me her daughter, my daughter, no, no, no, no no, no, 544 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: don't touch don't touch me. Two and a half. Yeah, 545 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: two and a half. She wants she might be a 546 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: words of affirmation.

One thing I really want to know, 590 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: because I talk about this all the time, when you're 591 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: in an argument or when you're in a place where 592 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: you're not able to give your partner what they need 593 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: to feel better, Like if we're both not receiving the 594 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: love language, what do you do, Like if you're so 595 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: shut down? Because I know what happens to so many 596 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: people where it's like I just need you to touch me, 597 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: or you know, I need you to tell me something 598 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 1: that I don't want to you know, I don't I'm 599 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,959 Speaker 1: not there. Yeah. Well, first of all, we can't demand love. 600 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 1: I mean, you can demand it, but you're not lucky 601 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: to get it by demanding it. Yeah, you know, love it. 602 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: Love is a choice that everyone must make, and love 603 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: starts with an attitude that I want to enrich your life. 604 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: You know, how can I make your life easier? How 605 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: can I help you accomplish your goals in life. It's 606 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: an attitude and it's also an emotional need. But we 607 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: don't start with the emotions. But there are times that 608 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: we don't emotionally like we want to love them. But 609 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: if we understand this concept and how important it is, 610 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: we choose to speak their love language, even though we're 611 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,839 Speaker 1: not emotionally pushed to do so, because we know, if 612 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to help them, the first, deepest, one of 613 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: the deepest needs they have is the need to fill up. 614 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: So I'm going to choose to speak that love language 615 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 1: even though I don't feel it. Now. That doesn't mean 616 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: but when a person says, you know, I need you 617 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: to do this. I need you. They're they're they're begging 618 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: you to speak their love language. And something has happened 619 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: in the relationship that's caused you to be cold or 620 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: hurt or you know, there's a fracture between you. Uh. 621 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: I think two things. One is to say, you know, honey, 622 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying, but I have to be 623 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: honest with you. I'm feeling a lot of hurt. I'm 624 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: feeling a lot of disappointment. And and if you're open, 625 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: I'll share with you why and we can work through this. 626 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 1: And so if they're open, then you say, you know, 627 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: last night or last week whenever, da da da da da, 628 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: this is how I felt. And it's almost like I 629 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: just shut down. And I don't know if you meant 630 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: it meant it that way, but that's what I heard 631 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 1: and that's what I felt. And then they have a 632 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 1: chance to either apologize or to explain it that from 633 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 1: their perspective, that was not what they were trying to 634 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: communicate because us, you know, we can't read minds. And 635 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: that's why I suggest a couples every day have us 636 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: sit down and listen time then it might just be 637 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes and notice I say it, sit down and listen, 638 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: not sit down and talk, because if I say let's 639 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: sit down and talk, it means I want to tell 640 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: you something, but I want to sit down and listen. 641 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,760 Speaker 1: I want to hear what your thoughts have been today. 642 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 1: What are some of the things you've been thinking, What 643 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: have you been feeling today? What could I do that 644 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: might rich your life or help you or make life 645 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 1: better for you? Yeah, And I'm listening to you as 646 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: you said that, and then you you listen to me 647 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: as I share you do that on a regular basis. 648 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 1: They connected you keep the barriers, you know, from building 649 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: you think. Do you think it's more difficult for men 650 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: to do that than it is for women? As far 651 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: as I think it is for some men. It all 652 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: depends on how you were raised, you know, and I 653 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: mean some men were raised where you're not supposed to 654 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: have feelings. You know, you start crying and don't cry, 655 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: you know, you're a big boy. Don't cry. You know, well, 656 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: humans cry if they're hurt. You know, I don't care, 657 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: male or female. Yeah, So a lot has to do 658 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: with how you know, we're raised. What happens if you 659 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: have a son who cries too much. It's a good question, though, 660 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean it we're making a joke, but it's true. 661 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 1: I think that the important factor, important thing if he 662 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: is crying is to listen, ask questions and listen what 663 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 1: what what made you crist What made you coy? Honey? Yeah, 664 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: something I said or something, and listen to what they say, 665 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: because then you will also learn something of what's going 666 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: on in their minds if you're asking questions and listening 667 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 1: to what stimulated the tears, And that's the only way 668 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 1: we can address it. If we know what's stimulating the tears, 669 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: then we can address the underlying thing. I mean, you're 670 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: saying something right now to me that I'm hearing, And 671 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: it's all about listening and how you're listened to. And 672 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 1: I think that generationally, the world we're living in now 673 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: versus one hundred and fifty years ago, to sit and 674 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: to listen was like a privilege. The working you know, survival, 675 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: we don't have time to listen to our issues. It's 676 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 1: a very interesting concept that out of like love, I mean, really, 677 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,919 Speaker 1: I just want to be hurt. And there's the old 678 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 1: idea on the part of some parents is that children 679 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: are to be seen and not heard. I don't want 680 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: to hear what you have to say. I'm the parent here, 681 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: You're going to do what I say. So the kid 682 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: grows up feeling like, you know, they don't have a 683 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: right to say anything. And I remember when our son 684 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: was coming along and he was a teenager at this time, 685 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: and he said to me, he said, Dad, I know 686 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: you have the final word. I just want you to 687 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 1: hear me. And that was that was a wake up 688 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: call for you know, yeah, and I okay, son, I 689 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 1: hear you. And so I started asking him questions, you know, 690 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: about whatever the topic was, you know, his feelings, his thoughts, 691 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: his perceptions, and why he felt what he felt. And 692 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 1: because I listened to him, and he was going to 693 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 1: open to listen to me as I explained the reasons 694 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: why I was, you know, suggesting what we're going to do. 695 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,479 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, no question about it. Parent parents 696 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: are the authority figures in a home, and we have 697 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: to make decisions. I mean, we hopefully we know more 698 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 1: than our kids, and we want to make decisions that 699 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: are going to be for their good and their benefits. 700 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: So we don't do everything they want us to do, 701 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 1: but we do need to treat them as individuals and 702 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: persons of worth. And if they grow up feeling like 703 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: that they're loved by their parents and that they can 704 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: talk to their parents about anything, we're preparing them to 705 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: have good adult experiences. What about applying these sort of 706 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: love languages to your work I mean, or to your 707 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 1: relationships with people that aren't necessarily loving intimate relationships, but 708 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: but your friendships and even the sibling dynamic, because it's 709 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: a very different kind of relationship, Like all of our 710 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 1: needs physical touch, Like I'm not going to come up 711 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: and touch him all the time to feel weird, right, 712 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: you know? Like how do you apply those things? Just 713 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 1: don't touch me? Like? I think? I think the concept 714 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: does apply in the workplace and workplace or relationships. In fact, 715 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: I wrote a book with the doctor Paul White, who 716 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 1: was a psychologist who had twenty years experience in business, 717 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 1: called the Five Languages of Appreciation in the workplace. We'll 718 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: use the word appreciation because it's the same need. It's 719 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 1: the need that I'm valued as a person. I'm not 720 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: just a cog in the machine in this company. My 721 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: colleagues and my supervisor, they value me as a person, 722 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: and we simply took the love language to work. Now, 723 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,759 Speaker 1: the one place we got pushed back from the HR 724 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: people's on physical touch and they say, oh, we don't 725 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: touch it work. Yeah right, exactly. So yeah, so we 726 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 1: discussed in that book, you know, the whole thing of 727 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: physical abuse and sexual abuse and all that stuff. But 728 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 1: what we did find is that almost no one had 729 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: physical in the workplace, had physical touch as their primary 730 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 1: appreciation language. It might be their love language and other relationship, 731 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: but not not at work. But so what we said 732 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 1: in the book was, if you see a colleague that's 733 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: giving people high fives, great, give them a high five. 734 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: If they hit people on the shoulder, hit them on 735 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: the shoulder. But if you don't ever see them touch 736 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: anybody else, don't touch them. And if you do touch 737 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 1: them and they stiffen up, don't ever touch them again. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, 738 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, it does have an application in the workplace. 739 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: Seventy percent of the people who have a job in 740 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: this country say they feel little to no appreciation coming 741 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: from the people with whom and for whom they work. 742 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: Sixty four percent of the people leave a job and 743 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: go to another job say they left primarily because they 744 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: didn't feel appreciated where they were. It's a huge area. Wow. Workplace. Wow, 745 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: that's really interesting. Yeah, I mean when you think about 746 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: creating workplace environments, I mean I think about this all 747 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: the time and constantly like putting the effort towards creating 748 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: a positive work environment where people feel like they're I 749 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: mean to me, I know that I'd want to be heard, 750 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: you know, and like great to me, A great leader 751 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: is a great listener. Right. It's also interesting when you're 752 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: dealing with a lot of people and how you make 753 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 1: everybody feel good, because you can't always make everybody happy 754 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: or feel good. You know, that's right, And you know, 755 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 1: the larger the group, the more difficult it is going it. 756 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 1: We only have so much time. And so but what 757 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: we did before we wrote that book, doctor White would 758 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: go into a business and give a job satisfaction test, 759 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 1: and then he would share the concept and everybody would 760 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: take a quiz it was a different quiz for this one, 761 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: and take a quiz and learn each other's primary and 762 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: secondary and one that's least important. And then he would 763 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: challenge them to implement that. And I think he sent 764 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: out an email maybe every six weeks, just getting it 765 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 1: back on the front burner. A year later, he went 766 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 1: back in the company and gave another job satisfaction test, 767 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 1: and in every case it was statistically improved. Wow. So 768 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: it does make a huge difference when this is applied. Yeah, 769 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: you can apply this literally everything and anything. Where have 770 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: you found the most I'm sure it's relationships. Everybody wants 771 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 1: a good relationship. But other than the relationship, where have 772 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 1: you found the most traction in the different areas that 773 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 1: your books have focused on. It really depends on where 774 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,919 Speaker 1: the individual, or the couple or the family where they are. 775 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,919 Speaker 1: For example, if you have a special needs child, that's 776 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: the book you want to read, you know, that's that 777 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: we want to learn how to communicate love to this 778 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 1: child effectively and also how to keep our relationship, you know, 779 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 1: going while we're dealing with a special needs child because 780 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: it's just super, super stressful. So a lot depends on 781 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: where a person is, you know. I mean, the military 782 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: has been very, very satisfying to me to say so 783 00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 1: many military couple say, you know, Gary, that that book 784 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: really saved their marriage because it was a way to 785 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 1: help us keep connected emotionally while we were deployed. And 786 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 1: you know, some couples are deployed a lot, and they're 787 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: they're away from months and months, and so if you 788 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 1: can stay connected emostly while you are deployed, then when 789 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 1: you come back it's much easier. The re entry is 790 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 1: much easier. You know, this quarantine period a year where 791 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: everybody's lives are very different. Every more people are at 792 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: home with each other. And what happens if you're speaking 793 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: each other's love language too much? Stop touching? So what 794 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:12,320 Speaker 1: happens when you're kind of you know, because being together. 795 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 1: A lot of people are saying, you know, this isn't 796 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: the way it's supposed to be. We're supposed to have 797 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: more independent lives and have our friends and be able to, 798 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: you know, go to the workplace and come home, or 799 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: go out for the night with your friends and then 800 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,919 Speaker 1: come you know, yeah, no, no question about it. It's 801 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: a whole different playing field. One the two of you 802 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 1: are at home together basically all the time, and if 803 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 1: you have kids in their home not going to school, 804 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: it's a whole new playing field. In fact, I wrote 805 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: a little book in the middle of the pandemic call 806 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,240 Speaker 1: five semple Ways to strengthen your marriage when you're stuck 807 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 1: at home together. I can't believe I didn't know this, 808 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: but I'm getting it immediately. It's just a little it's 809 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: just a short little book, you know, with some suggestions 810 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: on that. But of them is and here's what I 811 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: have found. If couples had a fairly healthy marriage before 812 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: the pandemic, they're probably doing okay. In fact, they may 813 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 1: be even better now. But if they were fractured already 814 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: before the pandemic, it's probably worse now than it was. 815 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: So one of the first suggestions I make is, what 816 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: if we call a truce on throwing verbal bombs at 817 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: each other? Because fractured couples are throwing bombs at each other, 818 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 1: verbal bombs at each other, and bombs explode in the 819 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 1: heart and mind of the other person, and we might 820 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: we're just making things worse by, you know, criticizing them, 821 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: putting them down, you know. And so why don't you say, 822 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 1: let's talk a three week truce that for three weeks 823 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: we're going to really try not to throw a verbal bomb. 824 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 1: And after the first week, we're going to try to 825 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 1: give each other one compliment every week. For the next 826 00:47:55,200 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 1: two weeks, it's two compliments. Understand what we're doing. We're 827 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 1: we're trying to change the climate from shooting, throwing bombs 828 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: at each other to throwing, you know, words of affirmation 829 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 1: to each other. And this is just that, especially for 830 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,240 Speaker 1: couples that are troubled, this is just the starting place. 831 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: The second idea is to tear the walls down, because 832 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: the trouble marriage has walls. They've got a history and 833 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 1: they built a wall between them with all the failures. 834 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 1: And this involves apologizing and forgiving. You're not gonna get it. 835 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: You don't give, You're not going to get ahead until 836 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,359 Speaker 1: you tear the wall down. And I don't care if 837 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: in your mind you think your spouse is ninety five 838 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 1: percent of the problem and that only leaves five percent 839 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 1: for you. You deal with your five percent because you 840 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: can't tear the wall down on their side, but you 841 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: can't apologize for your five percent. Maybe they forgive you, 842 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:50,799 Speaker 1: maybe they don't, but at least they're going to walk 843 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: away and say, man, this is different. Never heard them 844 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: do that before. All I've ever heard is how bad 845 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 1: I am. So you know you can open the door 846 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 1: to get in the all to him down. Then the 847 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 1: love language just kicks in and it's much more meaningful 848 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: now because you know, we've stopped the battle and we're 849 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: we've torn down the walls. Now we're beginning to think, 850 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 1: maybe we could make this better, maybe we couldn't make 851 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 1: it different, you know. So yeah, and I think also 852 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: another thing when we're stuck at home together is let's 853 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 1: reassess who does what, because you know, we had it 854 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 1: all kind of worked out when the kids were going 855 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: to school and one of us is going to work 856 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 1: at this time and this time, and we had it 857 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,240 Speaker 1: all kind of worked out. But now the whole field 858 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,879 Speaker 1: has changed, and what we need to reassess. Maybe mom 859 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,320 Speaker 1: who got up and cooked breakfast before she went to work, 860 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: and Dad got the kids ready and then took them 861 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: to school, maybe that one's working. But now Mom's really 862 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,839 Speaker 1: not a morning person and she would like to use 863 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,919 Speaker 1: this opportunity to sleep an hour later. So maybe Dad 864 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: ought to did the breakfast in the morning because he's 865 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,799 Speaker 1: a morning person. Let him work with the kids, those 866 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,800 Speaker 1: first little wives. You know, I mean to be open 867 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: to shifting. We're a team and we want to use 868 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 1: the best team members, you know, and we may have 869 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 1: to change a little teamwork during this During this time, 870 00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 1: a lot of ideas. Wow, I love it doesn't ever 871 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: call you the love doctor. I mean you the love doctor. 872 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: I have been called that. Yeah, I figured it's fine. 873 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's true, but I mean, obviously 874 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: I care about love, and I really believe that, as 875 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: you said earlier, love is the most powerful influence in 876 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,319 Speaker 1: the world. If you choose an attitude of love toward 877 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: the people you encounter, you're going to make a positive 878 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: impact on the world. If we live as nature as 879 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 1: naturally in terms of being selfish, which we all are 880 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 1: by nature, and we think of everything in terms of 881 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 1: what am I going to get out of this? You know, 882 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 1: then you're not going to enrich the world. Uh. You 883 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 1: may accomplish a lot of good things and you feel 884 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: good about yourself and all that, but you're not going 885 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 1: to enhance enhance the world very much with a selfish attitude, 886 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 1: but a loving attitude what make to the world. It's true, 887 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you would believe that right like 888 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: love is contagious in a sense. Thank you, doctor. I'm 889 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: taking that with me. Wow, this was awesome. Thank you 890 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:17,799 Speaker 1: so much. With you keep on helping people and I'm 891 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 1: going to read. I'm going to get all the books. Now, 892 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 1: I honestly didn't even realize there were so many. I know, 893 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: picking up the I'm going to get the children's one 894 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 1: for sure. I need. I need the children and the team. 895 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I have the children, but the team one 896 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 1: team interesting. I've got to set. It's actually also one 897 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:38,239 Speaker 1: for the teenager, call a Teen's Guide to the Five 898 00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: Blood Language, small small book. So if they read that 899 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: and they're getting the idea on their side, well you 900 00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: read the one for parents, then you can really talk 901 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 1: about it. I am not only going to do that, 902 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 1: I am going to post it to every teen mother 903 00:51:54,400 --> 00:52:00,080 Speaker 1: out there. We all know what we're talking about. I 904 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 1: have the opposite. My son is very funny and self deprecating, 905 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 1: and anytime I walk away from him, he's like, well, 906 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 1: I guess you don't really love me that much. I'm like, 907 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: what is happening. I'm just you did that last night. 908 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:15,680 Speaker 1: I didn't do it last night. He came and he 909 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 1: sat down and I had to go do something and 910 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,400 Speaker 1: I got up and he's like, oh, is that what happens? 911 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: When I sit down and was walking away without looking back. 912 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:29,479 Speaker 1: She goes, I love you for quality time. Kids. Yeah, 913 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: that's the read that's the way they read it. Something 914 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 1: out there is more important, exactly, exactly. Well, thank you 915 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:38,879 Speaker 1: so much, doctor Chapman. Thank you for everything you do. 916 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 1: You have made the world a better place with your 917 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: really mean you really seriously, that's I'm not hyperbolic. I 918 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 1: mean this is it's what you have written is real 919 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: and it's simple, but it's real. And people from all 920 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 1: over the world, as you know, are following this and 921 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 1: all my friends know about it. And you know what's 922 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: even more amazing about when you have something and you 923 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 1: tap into something and then it has the kind of 924 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 1: reception that it does. What it says to me and 925 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: what I'm I'm I'm sure it says to you is 926 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 1: that people want to love better and be loved. This 927 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 1: is something that we desire and that we want, and 928 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 1: it's so interesting that we find it so hard to 929 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 1: attain and achieve. And this is sometimes you need a 930 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 1: simple guideline and that's what this is, a simple guideline. 931 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: That's why that makes so much sense. It's sort of 932 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 1: like it's like it's like the big flashing red light, 933 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 1: like how did I not know? Yeah, it's very gratifying. 934 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 1: It really is very gratifying to say the way the 935 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,520 Speaker 1: book has helped so many people in so many contexts. Well, 936 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 1: so you know, all all of us are gifted in 937 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 1: different ways and we just want to use our abilities 938 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 1: to enrich the world and if if everybody did that, 939 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,359 Speaker 1: it would be a great place to live. Well, thank 940 00:53:54,440 --> 00:54:03,280 Speaker 1: you again, Bud, thank you, thank you, Okay Rights Sibling 941 00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 1: Revelry is executive produced by Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson. 942 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: Producer is Alison Presnik.
