Plot Armor

Meghan McTavish

Some people have luck. The rest of us have Plot Armor. Life doesn’t come with a script, but if it did, you’d be the protagonist. Plot Armor is a podcast about the twists, turns, and plot holes that shape us—the setbacks that should’ve taken us out, but somehow, we made it through. Hosted by Meghan McTavish (founder of The Plotline©) this show dives into the unexpected moments that prove we’re all a little more protected than we think. Because if life is a story, you’re not just surviving it—you’re starring in it. Get The Plotline© Journal here Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    "You’re Not Helpless, You’re Evolving": The Hattie Willoughby Interview

    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 growWhy aging isn’t something to fear, but something to claimWhat happens when you stop waiting for applause and start clapping for yourselfAnd how to unlearn the need for external validation and come home to your own worthThis 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. Need a hand staying in main character mode?

    Can you neg yourself into a great mood? And should 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 screamThe journaling method that backfired spectacularlyHow saying “this version of me is not permanent” in a villain voice might actually save youAnd the 3-step tactic for using Ominous Positivity when you’re spiralingThink 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. Find out more at doitfortheplotline.com Hosted on Acast.

    Alyx Gorman: "Sex as the main character."

    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. Whether you’re celibate, curious, or just sick of faking it, this one’s for you. Want to chat?

    Willow Caelan: "Your reality is fluid."

    What actually happens when you almost die—but don’t? And more importantly… why didn’t you? This week on Plot Armor, I’m joined by TikTok’s reiki queen and quantum healer Willow Caelan, who shares the story of her near-death experience (NDE) and what it taught her about time, timelines, and why your reality might be shifting all the time without you even knowing it. We talk quantum physics, spiritual purpose, and the mysterious line between survival and fate. Whether or not you’ve had an NDE, this episode will make you look at your life—and your timeline—very differently. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Being a victim is addictive

    There’s comfort in the ‘woe is me’ narrative, but staying in victim mode keeps you stuck in a subplot.
