    What Your Attachment Style Says About You w/ Sarah Baldwin

    Hey Besties! Today, we get to listen to the second half of Violetta’s conversation with Sarah Baldwin. Sarah is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Trauma-informed Life Coach dedicated to supporting individuals in understanding their reactions, feelings, and patterns, emphasizing that these are not indicative of anything wrong, but rather everything being right with the person.

    Violetta and Sarah will dig deep into what it means to have an anxious or avoidant attachment style, how to overcome it, and how it can potentially affect your current and future relationships. Discover how your nervous system is the puppeteer of your relationships, unravel the mysteries of anxious and avoidant attachments, and get the lowdown on why opposites attract but might not always stick. Learn the golden rules of relationship arguments, decode the dynamic dance between different attachment styles, and embrace the bravest steps towards love. Whether you're anxiously engaged or coolly detached, it's time to understand, set boundaries, and find out why, in the game of love, we're all wonderfully complex.

    From Lovers to Strangers - What Went Wrong?

    From Lovers to Strangers - What Went Wrong?

    Hey Besties! Welcome to another Benson Book Club Tuesday! It’s been a favorite so we will discuss another chapter of Men Don’t Love Women Like You! by G.L. Lambert - a manual on how to stop manipulation, command attention, and be seen as a must have by any man. 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.

My favourite❤️

I found this podcast about a week ago and I’ve literally listened almost every single episode already.😍 I Think the timing was just perfect because I’ve recently started building my self confidence and Violet really makes me feel I’m not alone and there’s hope to leave the trashy men behind for good (and Btw she’s totally right, the main problem in dating was me and my lack of self respect, not that all men are trash). I can also relate to her stories about Russia because alltough I’m not russian (but in fact my great great grandpa was) I’m from the neighbourhood and living 6months without sun every year🤣 Plus my ex is russian and half of my friends as well, I just love their humour 😊

Totally love it

This totally changed my mindset. I was in a toxic on and off relationship because I keep thinking he was the one and I just needed to give him time. It will never work. I feel more confident now and I am not looking for any validation from any guys

All love

I love this podcast! I usually listen while taking long walks and it literally feels like spending time with friends with this podcast in my ears. It has so relatable and fun content and I love the honesty Violet brings to everything in it. This podcast always puts a smile on my face, thank you ❤️
