081: Exploring Mommy Wine Culture with Addictions Counselor Michelle Smith

Do you find yourself constantly thinking about the glass of wine you’re going to have at the end of the day? Do you feel a pull to have a drink throughout the day when things get hard? Are the majority of your social events with other moms centered around drinking? Mommy wine culture has been made into a lighthearted merchandisable topic that can have serious consequences for those who find themselves trapped in it. While it may be fun and lighthearted for some, for others it can quickly grow into a hidden problem with lasting impacts. Michelle Smith is an author, counselor, TEDx speaker, and founder of Recovery Is The New Black. She’s here to share her relationship with alcohol and help us unpack mommy wine culture.  Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3lO6ROJ  Book a Free 15 min Consult with a mom therapist: happyasamother.co/wellness   Follow Happy as a Mother on Instagram: instagram.com/happyasamother   Sign up for our weekly VIP Newsletter: happyasamother.co/newsletter   Register for one of our popular workshops: happyasamother.co/shop  Learn more about your ad choices.
