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 is it crucial to invest time and effort in individuals who recognize your true worth? The answer lies in the profound impact that such people can have on your personal growth and development. When you surround yourself with those who appreciate and understand your value, their presence serves as a catalyst for your own self-belief and confidence.
Today on Almost Adulting, Violetta welcomes Portuguese actress and Suicide Squad star Daniela Melchior. The duo talks about the time when Daniela had to pretend to be Violetta’s ex-boyfriend begging for her attention, why it’s best to move on from someone who can’t appreciate you, and how real energy exchange is.
