Violet Benson's podcast is an absolute gem! She brings a unique blend of wisdom, wit, and warmth to every episode. Her advice is not just insightful but also practical, making it easy to apply to everyday life. I love how she seamlessly weaves in affirmations, advice, and discussions about femininity, creating a space that feels empowering and inclusive. I love listening to her podcast on long drives, she’s def the big sister you need to hear. If there’s any new podcast you listen to this week, let it be this one!
