Short videos for getting good at the small, everyday ways of showing you care.
How this collection works
Who watches this
You — the person showing up. These videos aren't for the recipient.
When
Before a conversation, when you're not sure what to say. Watch alone, take a beat.
What each beat is for
Caption orients you before watching. Takeaway is the line to hold onto. Reflection questions turn watching into a small decision.

The 5 Love Languages in 5 Minutes - Gary Chapman
One Percent Better · 5 min
A walk-through of the five love languages, and why care lands best in the one the other person speaks.
Takeaway
People don't all feel cared for the same way. Find their language - words, time, gifts, acts, or touch - and spend your effort there instead of where it comes naturally to you.
Reflection
01
Name the person you most want to show up for, then write your best guess at their top love language - and what they complain about not getting is the biggest clue.
02
Pick one act in their language you can do in the next day or two (a real errand off their plate, an hour with your phone away, a small surprise) and put it on the calendar now.
03
Notice which language is YOUR default - the way you usually show love. Where have you been giving in your language instead of theirs? Name one specific instance.
