Formerly Almost Adulting… but let’s call it what it always was.
Welcome to DADDY ISSUES with Violet Benson.
I brought the original name back. Because I am the OG Daddy Issues - the brand that started 12 years ago and turned a meme page into a movement. The name you've always known me by. So we’re done pretending.
This podcast WILL change you... or at least your standards.
We talk dating disasters, attachment styles, adulting, evolving past your patterns, confidence comebacks, mental health spirals, breakups, friendships, and how to stop chasing, settling, and playing small. Tough love backed by real psychology.
I’m Violet Benson - Comedian, Daddy Issues meme queen, ex-accountant, soon-to-be-author, and your unfiltered Russian big sister. I’ll say what your therapist is thinking but won’t text you at 11PM.
Welcome home.
New episodes every Thursday.
This isn’t Almost Adulting anymore.
It’s Daddy Issues.
Why Women Are Choosing Younger Men
This week on Almost Adulting, I’m joined by the power couple that broke the internet—and probably a few age-gap double standards. Caroline Stanbury (yes, that Caroline from Ladies of London and Real Housewives of Dubai) and her hot husband Sergio (ex-pro footballer, full-time golden retriever energy) are here to prove that age is just a number—and chemistry is undefeated.
We’re talking:
- Vagina Watch 2016—where the love story began
- Sleeping together early (and why Sergio needed a second chance)
- The car he tried to hide and Caroline’s brutal reaction
- The perks of dating younger: stamina, TikTok fluency, and unapologetic oral sex
- Botox, poo talk, and why confidence > collagen
- Why their relationship makes people uncomfortable
- Dating across a language barrier and how Sergio really felt
- Haters, labels, and how to flip judgment into power
Plus: is dating a younger man the secret to crafting the emotionally available partner your therapist keeps promising?
If you’ve ever been judged for who you love, questioned if you’re too old to start over, or just want the tea on naked confidence and facelifts—this one’s for you! Grab your AirPods. And maybe a younger man, and hit play.
