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.
And sometimes…we just need to hear the cold hard truth. Kidding. But when you only focus on the negative things in life, you don’t realize that that’s all you’re allowing your life to be. We all deserve the most beautiful things in life, and sometimes tough love from your bestie is exactly what you needed to hear.
Today we welcome TV host, podcaster, and Sports Illustrated model Kamie Crawford to Almost Adulting! Violet and Kamie, instant besties and Scorpio sisters, start off the conversation by talking brutally honestly about some of their own faults, and even their friends. They discuss how their delivery may not always be the best, but it may just be a Scorpio thing. They also talk in depth about Kamie’s life post her 5-year relationship, how NOT having a rebound after a breakup is a painful part of growing up, the two forms of cheating, and which of them is truly worse than the other. The truth hurts besties, no matter which way you put it.
