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

At certain stages of life, intensity can feel like progress.

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.

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
