About this episode

The ones who know more about you than your own family, the ones you call in an emergency and know they’re gonna pick up, and the ones that you know no matter what, they have your back for life.  

In today's special edition episode, Violet takes the stage for the first ever live recording of Almost Adulting. Recording live from The Hollywood Improv, Violet gets real about how she developed true confidence, the power of manifesting, and friendship breakups. Since Violet was joined by all of her besties that came out to see her, she invited some on stage to share their stories about friendship breakups - because nothing brings people together more than talking sh*t about their old friends! Finally, Violet explains the 5 signs that you have a ride or die bestie in your life and how important it is to nourish those relationships even during hard times. Real friends are hard to come by, hold on to them tight Besties!
