Sexual Wellness, Modern Womanhood & The Manosphere with Emilie Lavinia

In this episode of Owning Space, I sit down with Emilie Lavinia, Wellbeing Editor at The Independent, host of the Well Enough podcast and writer of the All Being Well newsletter, to explore sexual wellness, modern womanhood and the cultural forces shaping how women experience health and relationships today.We discuss what is really driving the wellness industry, from empowerment to wellness washing, and question what it actually means to be well in a space that is increasingly commercialised. We also explore the pressures placed on women in modern society, from performance culture to identity, and how these shape the way women relate to their bodies, health and self worth.We talk openly about porn, shame and intimacy, and examine the growing influence of the manosphere, exploring what it reveals about shifting gender dynamics, power and the cultural backlash facing women today.This is a sharp, honest and culturally informed conversation about the realities of being a woman today.Find Emilie on Instagram: @emilielaviniaukIf you’re enjoying Owning Space, follow the podcast on Spotify and Apple so you don’t miss future episodes, it really helps the show grow.Follow on Instagram and TikTok: @owningspacepodcast Watch the full video version on ⁠YouTube
