If you’ve ever joked about “surviving motherhood" with wine or alcohol or if you feel like that evening glass is the only thing getting you through motherhood, this episode is one you’ll want in your ears...Today, we’re breaking down mommy wine culture with Set Free Sisterhood and talking about why it’s become so normalized… and why it’s quietly hurting so many moms (even the ones who insist they “don’t have a problem”).We talk about the subtle early signs that alcohol is becoming a coping tool, how isolation + lack of village fuels the problem, and the real-life consequences no one wants to say out loud.
