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.
You’re not crazy. You’re anxious.
This week on Almost Adulting, Violet sits down with Mel Robbins to unpack high-functioning anxiety in love — why women attach fast, date potential, ignore red flags, and stay in relationships where they can’t ask for what they need. Mel breaks down the 5 Second Rule, how to stop spiraling, time blindness, and the worst thing you can do when anxiety hits.
They talk separation anxiety, loving someone who’s wrong for you, being right vs. being connected, and the obvious signs he just doesn’t like you.
If you’re successful but secretly overthinking everything in dating — this one will hit.
