    TAP INTO YOUR DIVINE FEMININE

    TAP INTO YOUR DIVINE FEMININE

    Hey Besties! It is the fourth and final installation of Benson Bootcamp, and we’re ending on a note to set you up perfectly for the month of love coming up!

    This week on Almost Adulting, you and Violet are diving into your divine femininity. What does this mean you ask? The divine feminine is the feminine aspect of the divine power that connects and binds the earth together. It is something we all have within us, and something that if channeled correctly, can open us up to so many things we are unknowingly evading ourselves from. While both masculine and feminine energy are present and necessary in all people, tapping into one's feminine energy can help further receptivity, openness, and vulnerability. In this episode Violet will discuss the pros of unleashing the various types of femininity and how leaning into their presence can assist you throughout your life. By the way, this is not to be confused with old school gender roles, or doing things just to attract a partner, but rather tap into an intimate side that is already within you. Enjoy the journey, Besties.

    How I Stayed At A 50M Dollar House

    How I Stayed At A 50M Dollar House

    Staying at a billionaire's house? That's a dream come true! But girl, don't forget to show your finesse and charm while you're there. 

    Today, Violetta shares a few updates about her life. She starts off with the post-surgery experience after she had her eggs extracted successfully, how it affected her mentally, and what no one tells you about post egg freezing. Then, she talks about her recent trip to Mexico where she stayed at James Packer’s $50M house for a weekend - the place, the view, the food, the fun - bombastic side-eye!

    Confession Corner: FAMILY DRAMA

    Confession Corner: FAMILY DRAMA

    Life is like a game of Jenga, you never know which block is going to make the whole thing come crashing down. One minute you're on top of the world, and the next you're wondering how you ended up in a pile of rubble. But that's the beauty of life, isn't it? The unpredictability keeps things interesting and makes every day a new adventure, or in some instances, a misadventure. 

    Today, Violetta listens to brand new stories from Reddit. One talks about falling in love with his student ten years younger than him while the other is about a 70 year old grandpa who gets tangled in what’s probably the most unrealistic opportunity when he meets with a 20-year old babysitter one evening. The stories just keep getting wild so stick around and see how intense these stories can be.  


    If you want to be featured on the next Confession Corner call Violet at 424-278-4268 and leave an anonymous voicemail!
