Ring ring… hellllllo? It's your big sis Violetta coming to your rescue!Hi besties!! It's the second week of the month, and you know what that means: a brand new episode of Ask Violetta. But today, we're doing things a little differently... We're answering just one question. But not just any question—the one that haunts your group chat at 2am:“What if they're your soulmate… but the timing's off?”You swear they're the one. Your twin flame. Your human dopamine hit. Every text gives you fanny flutters. But fate? She's a petty little b*tch. Wrong place. Wrong time. Right person. It's a tale as old as time… so what the hell do you do??? Listen to this episode obviously!So if that's you, hit play. If it's your bestie, hit send. Because someone in your group chat needs to hear this before it's too late.By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly what to do. And if that means letting go? I've got you boo, with 9 steps to detach like the hot unbothered queen you were always meant to be.P.S. Don't forget... the right people are timeless.

Why are we so f*cking mean to ourselves?This week, we're diving deep into that nonstop voice in your head that tells you you're not good enough, smart enough, hot enough, just... not enough. You'll find out why it exists, how it got there, and how to finally shut it the hell up.We're talking:· The real science behind your inner critic (yes, it's a thing - it's called the Default Mode Network)· Why comparing yourself to everyone on the internet is literally frying your brain (hi, Social Comparison Theory)· How to mentally separate from that toxic inner voice (Cognitive Diffusion, b*tch)· And how to give yourself the kind of love you're always chasing from other people (Radical Self-Compassion...look it up, it's life-changing)By the end of this, you're going to understand that being hard on yourself isn't some personality trait - it's a survival habit you can unlearn. And we're doing it together, one savage thought at a time.This episode is science, sass, and self-respect. Let's go.Wanna listen to this episode AD FREE??
