Breaking the Wine Mom Myth

We’re told it’s harmless. That it’s deserved. That motherhood is so hard, you need something to take the edge off. But what if that message is shaping more than we realize? In this conversation with Ericka Andersen, we talk about what it looks like to see alcohol differently. Not just sobriety, but a shift in perspective that changes everything.Because there are things we don’t always talk about. The moments you miss when you’re just a little buzzed. The subtle cues from your husband. The small, meaningful things your kids say and do. Even the quiet ways the Lord is speaking that are easy to overlook when your mind isn’t fully clear. And over time, something that started as a way to relax can quietly become something you feel like you need, shaping patterns in your mind and body.This episode isn’t about shame. It’s about awareness. It’s about asking honest questions. What would it look like to be fully present in motherhood, with clarity instead of coping? You may never think about alcohol the same way again.
