About this listen

In this episode of No More Booze, we welcome back psychotherapist Orlagh Reid to tackle the topic of 'mommy wine culture'. We explore how societal norms around alcohol can influence mothers' perceptions of parenting and coping, often promoting the idea that wine is essential for survival in motherhood. Orlagh shares insights from her extensive experience working with women who drink to manage stress and burnout, shedding light on the staggering prevalence of messages that equate alcohol with self-care and relaxation. We discuss how these cultural scripts can lead to harmful narratives and even denial around alcohol use. We confront these issues, examine the impact on mental health and offer practical advice for breaking free from these entrenched beliefs. This is a really enlightening conversation that supports mothers in redefining their relationship with alcohol and discovering healthier ways to cope.
