Hannah Berner is back and somehow we go from broken hands to broken men in record time. Hannah and Violet get into people-pleasing, dating addicts, dating sober men, falling in love with potential, and the embarrassing things we do when we're convinced a situationship is going somewhere. Plus: Hannah's skiing disaster, why crushes are sometimes better in your head, and several reasons neither of them should be trusted when they have a crush.

Is your attachment style running the relationship? This week on Daddy Issues, Violet sits down with relationship expert Thais Gibson to break down why you chase, why he pulls away, and how subconscious wiring shapes the way you date. Thais Gibson is a best-selling author, counselor, and founder of the Personal Development School, known for her work on attachment styles and subconscious relationship patterns. They discuss the four attachment styles, the anxious-avoidant cycle, emotional triggers, and how childhood conditioning shapes the way you give and receive love. If the same dating patterns keep repeating in your life, this episode helps you understand why and how to start changing them.

What do you do when your hot‑girl era turns into a medical horror story? I broke my foot on a date, got a UTI, and spent the day being gaslit by the ER - who sent me home TWICE with a literal displaced fracture… but not before charging me for wasting my time. I can’t walk for two months, might need surgery, and now I’m side‑eyeing my friends because my scorpio senses are tingling that one of them definitely gave me the evil eye. It’s giving delusion, humiliation, and the American healthcare system at its finest.

Do you ever feel weirdly lonely in your relationships? Like you’re the one always doing the work—overthinking, overgiving, overfunctioning—and you still feel...empty? You’re not crazy. You might just have grown up with an emotionally immature parent. In this special Benson Book Club episode, I break down the first chapter of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents and walk you through the hidden patterns that are silently shaping your love life, self-worth, and ability to trust your instincts. From guilt for feeling unhappy, to people-pleasing, to dating men who “just don’t get it”—this episode unpacks all of it. This one’s for the girls who grew up being the emotional support system for everyone else, and are only now realizing that’s not normal. Let’s heal the inner child, stop normalizing dysfunction, and stop mistaking emotional starvation for love. Tag your best friend, take the quiz, cry a little, and reclaim your standards.
