Meat & Monogamy Sun, 24 May 2026 03:14:24 -0400 https://www.buzzsprout.com/2593191 en-gb © 2026 Meat & Monogamy yes 0ea95128-43a8-5bdb-ab2d-e73186dc4b60 olivia@olivialaraowen.com Olivia Lara Owen episodic false Hosted by Olivia Lara Owen, this is a space for women who have already done a lot of inner work, and are now navigating the quieter, more complex thresholds of life. The ones that don’t respond to urgency, forcing, or optimisation.

Through solo episodes and occasional conversations, Olivia explores what it means to build a life that can actually hold you. One rooted in capacity rather than intensity, devotion rather than fantasy, and truth rather than performance.


This is not a podcast about fixing yourself.
 It’s about feeding yourself.
And staying.


New episodes released in rhythm, not pressure.

Potentiate Your Power with Helen Wilkes (and join us in Ibiza this summer!) Ep 9. Potentiate Your Power with Helen Wilkes (and join us in Ibiza this summer!) In this episode of Meat & Monogamy, Liv is joined by one of her oldest and most beloved friends, Helen Wilkes, founder of The Collab in Sydney, yoga teacher, retreat leader and women’s power coach.

This is a conversation about women who were never built for small lives.

Liv and Helen speak about friendship, sisterhood, power, initiation, business, motherhood, and what it means to become a woman who can actually hold the life she has chosen. They share the origin story of a friendship forged in girlhood, rebellion, protection and being the ones who never quite fit the mould, and trace how that same thread has shaped the women they are now.

Helen shares the deeper roots of her work with power, from witnessing her mother’s journey, to moving across the world with no safety net, to opening her yoga studio, to supporting her partner through a life-altering illness and discovering a level of inner resource she could no longer deny.

And then, the invitation.

This summer, Liv will be joining Helen in Ibiza for Potentiate Your Power, Helen’s flagship retreat, running from 30th June to 6th July.

This is not a holiday with a bit of yoga.

This is a deeply held, high-touch retreat for powerful women who are already living big lives and are ready to be supported, expanded, nourished and met in the next layer of their becoming.

There will be yoga, embodiment, ancient energetics, deep facilitation, sisterhood, gorgeous food, spacious days, Ibiza magic, and one hell of a closing dance floor.

If you have been craving an in-person experience where you do not have to hold everything, perform, explain yourself, or do your growth alone, this episode is your invitation.

Two rooms remain.

You're Already Paying: The True Cost of Choosing not to Change You've thought about the cost of change. The discomfort, the uncertainty, the fear of getting it wrong. But have you ever really looked at what staying is costing you?

In this episode Liv breaks down the hidden invoice of not changing. The one that doesn't come with a number, doesn't announce itself, but quietly debits from your clarity, your self-trust, your energy, and your time.

Through real life examples of women choosing the familiar over the true, Liv reframes the question from "can I afford to change?" to "can I actually afford not to?"

This episode is for you if you're circling something. A decision, a pattern, a relationship, a version of yourself you've outgrown. And you keep telling yourself it's safer to stay.

It isn't. It's just a different kind of expensive.

The Moment Just Before the Bloom Two years ago at Easter I was technically homeless in Paris, burned out and suspended between versions of myself. A stranger pulled my cards and said one word that changed everything: provenance.

In this episode I share that story and what it taught me about self-trust, orientation and what it actually means to come home to yourself.

This episode is for you if you have been circling, overriding yourself, or trying to move forward without feeling fully anchored.

We cover: Why most high-capacity women have an orientation problem, not a clarity problem. What self-trust actually is and why it is a return, not a build. Why the moment just before the bloom is the most important moment of all.

Deep Nourishment with Clara Wisner | Why Most Women Are Under-Nourished In this episode, Liv is joined by Clara Wisner for a rich and deeply grounded conversation on nourishment, female health, and what it really means to build a life your body can hold.

Together, they explore Clara’s personal journey from deep undernourishment and burnout into the work she now teaches, supporting women to return to the foundations of care, safety, and embodied capacity. They speak about why so many women are living from depletion, the impact of consistently under-eating, how nourishment affects mood, boundaries, self-leadership, and what becomes possible when a woman is truly resourced.

They also explore cycle tracking, feminine physiology, and the importance of learning to know yourself through the body rather than trying to live from the mind alone.

This is a conversation for any woman who feels stretched, tired, reactive, disconnected from her body, or ready to build a steadier and more nourishing way of living.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  Clara’s nourishment story and how it shaped her work 
  •  Why so many women are undernourished without realising it 
  •  The impact of under-eating on mood, hormones, and nervous system capacity 
  •  Self-leadership, safety, and feeling at home in the female body 
  •  Why cycle tracking can be such a powerful tool for intimacy and self-trust

Movement, big decisions, and decisive action can create the sense that something is shifting. That you are growing. That you are moving forward.

But intensity is not the same as nourishment.

In this episode of Meat & Monogamy, Olivia explores the difference between adrenaline-fuelled decision-making and the slower, steadier work of building a life that can actually hold you.

Inside this conversation:

• Why intensity can feel productive, even when it isn’t sustainable
 • How dysregulation can drive big decisions and constant movement
 • Why growth culture rewards adrenaline and overlooks integration
 • What nourishment actually looks like in adulthood
 • The subtle shame many women feel when they slow down

If you have found yourself cycling between big moves and exhaustion, or questioning whether constant momentum is actually serving you, this episode will help you understand what may be happening underneath.

If something here resonates and you are navigating a threshold that requires more capacity than intensity, you are welcome to explore a 75-minute Deep Dive.

The Arc of Becoming with Arabella Oz: Five Years of Desire, Creativity and Following the Soul Call Ep4. The Arc of Becoming with Arabella Oz: Five Years of Desire, Creativity and Following the Soul Call In this deeply moving conversation, Liv sits down with Arabella Oz, a longtime client, creative and filmmaker, to reflect on five years of working together through huge life, identity and creative shifts.

They explore what changes when a woman stops living by shoulds and begins listening to desire, how long-term mentorship supports real transformation, and what it looks like to follow a soul-led creative path even when it asks everything of you.

Arabella shares the arc from her early years of living in tension with herself, through reclaiming desire as an inner compass, to building a beautiful life, marrying her partner, leaving her therapy practice, making her first feature film, and seeing it premiere at her dream festival.

This episode is about creative courage, devotion, pacing, self-trust, spiritual leadership, and the power of staying the course.

In this episode, we explore:

  • what it means to move from conditioning into deeper self-trust
  • desire as an inner compass rather than a frivolous impulse
  • the difference between group work and one-to-one mentorship
  • why long-term support creates a different kind of transformation
  • the courage required to follow creative callings
  • the spiritual and emotional reality of making a film
  • becoming the woman who can hold bigger dreams

At certain stages of adulthood, structure can feel threatening.

Especially if you are competent, independent, and used to holding everything together yourself.

In this episode of Meat & Monogamy, Olivia explores the difference between rigid control and clean containment, and why high-capacity women often resist the very structures that would support them.

Inside this conversation:

• Why intelligent women can mistake containment for restriction
 • The difference between control that contracts and structure that regulates
 • Why some containers increase your capacity and others quietly drain you
 • How to recognise the difference between a holding environment and a power struggle
 • Why real safety increases freedom rather than limiting it
