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! Welcome to another Benson Book Club Tuesday! It’s been a favorite so we will discuss another chapter of 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think by Brianna Wiest - a collection of the author’s most beloved pieces of writing. Violetta dives into a heartfelt exploration of the transient nature of relationships, where we ponder the journey from being strangers to becoming lovers, and sometimes, strangers once again. This podcast delves into the gratitude we owe to those who've departed from our lives, the insights gained from lost love, and the realization that every encounter has its purpose, often serving as a lesson in our personal growth. Through stories and reflections, we uncover the essence of our connections, learning to appreciate every moment and person as part of our life's evolving narrative.
