Williams explained the inspiration behind the title of the album is due to her belief that "the best way for me to protect myself is to be vulnerable."[7] The album was produced by Williams' Paramore bandmate Taylor York and was written throughout 2019 during Paramore's hiatus after touring in support of their fifth studio album, After Laughter (2017).
The album was supported by its lead single, "Simmer", which was released in January 2020, accompanied with its music video. In an interview with BBC Radio, Williams confirmed that she was to embark on a tour in support of Petals for Armor following its release. The tour was originally planned for the Summer of 2020 but was postponed and subsequently canceled in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
