Celeste Yvonne on the Lie Behind "Mommy Needs Wine”

from Drunk-ish - A Sobriety Podcast · host Stefanie Wilder-Taylor

This week I'm talking to Celeste Yvonne, author of It's Not About the Wine: The Loaded Truth Behind Mommy Wine Culture, and I have to tell you — I kept saying "same" out loud while reading her Scary Mommy interview. Celeste grew up watching her dad's Nicolas Cage-level alcoholism and figured as long as she wasn't that, she was fine. Meanwhile, she's hiding bottles and white-knuckling through bedtime. We get into gray area drinking, the lie that is "mommy needs wine," and why online recovery meetings have been a game-changer for moms who can barely get to the bathroom alone. If you've ever thought your drinking doesn't count because it doesn't look like the movies, this one's for you.Check out Drunk-ish on YouTube and subscribe...please!
