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.
Hey Besties! It's a trooper Tuesday here at Almost Adulting because, despite the sniffles and a touch of the flu, Violetta is here, powering through for all of you! She's got a pocket full of stories from the hills, where everyday encounters with crows, hawks, and even a rumored tiger (spoiler: it's a chubby cat) unfold.
But wait, there's more! Violetta spills the tea on her pet love affair with Charles, with tales of Charles #1, #2, and #3’s tragic and heartbreaking end. The current surviving pet? None other than Charles #4, also known as Pancakes! Get ready for a rollercoaster of animal antics and the heartwarming saga of Pancakes' eight-year reign in Violetta's home. Tune in for the laughs, love, and a glimpse into the wild side of living in the hills!
