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 don’t want flowers.
You want reassurance.
If he can post a story, he can send a sentence that says “I care about you.”
This episode is for every woman who feels crazy for needing words - because guess what? You’re not clingy. You’re not insecure. You’re under-affirmed.
We’re unpacking why hearing “I love you,” “I’m proud of you,” or “I’m here” hits like emotional oxygen… and why silence feels like abandonment.
If his silence makes you overthink,
if you keep replaying one compliment for three weeks,
if you’ve ever begged a man to just communicate —
you’re in the right place.
Hit play and stop settling for men who “feel it” but can’t say it.
