When TikToker Hattie Willoughby posted a video titled “I’m 54 and this is what life has taught me,” it wasn’t just advice — it was a mic drop. In this episode, I sit down with the woman whose words stopped me mid-scroll and made me want to live braver, softer, and truer.

We talk about:

• The art of not making yourself small for people who refuse to grow
• Why aging isn’t something to fear, but something to claim
• What happens when you stop waiting for applause and start clapping for yourself
• And how to unlearn the need for external validation and come home to your own worth

This is one of those conversations that will stay with you — the kind you might want to replay when you need a reminder that it’s never too late to write a new chapter. Especially one where you are the main character.

Hattie’s grace, clarity, and no-BS wisdom is a gift. I’m so lucky to share it with you.

Can you neg yourself into a good mood? Turns out... yes.

If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at a pastel affirmation or felt like you were being gaslit by someone holding a crystal, this episode is for you. We’re diving into the gloriously unhinged world of Ominous Positivity, the dark twin of high-vibe self-talk, where your affirmations sound more like threats... and somehow that’s what works.

I’m sharing the mindset shift that helped me through my divorce, identity crises, and algorithm-induced spiritual fatigue. You’ll hear about:

• Why “everything is always working out for me” made me want to scream
• The journaling method that backfired spectacularly
• How saying “this version of me is not permanent” in a villain voice might actually save you
• And the 3-step tactic for using Ominous Positivity when you’re spiraling

Think of it as optimism, but with edge. Positivity dressed in leather. A motivational speech delivered by your evil twin.

This is your plot twist. Let’s write it.

Are you having bad sex because you're too polite? This week on Plot Armor, I’m joined by journalist and author Alyx Gorman, whose new book All Women Want dives into the real reasons women are often having worse sex than men—and what to do about it. We talk sexual scripts, performance pressure, the politics of submission, and why your pleasure should be the priority. Because yes, being the main character applies to your sex life too.
