Why Women Cant Stop Drinking Wine: The Wine Mom Culture Trap
from One for the Road: The Quit Drinking Podcast
Why do so many women in their 40s and 50s feel like they cant stop drinking wine? This week on One for the Road, mindset coach Janey Holliday sits down with Sober Dave for one of the most important conversations on the podcast yet.Janey has coached women for over 20 years and her theory is that this generation has been programmed to drink — through decades of subliminal messaging, wine mom culture, Sex and the City, Bridget Jones, Hurrah for Gin, and the smartphone explosion that put alcohol marketing in front of women every hour of every day.She and Dave unpack the full timeline. The 80s dieting era. The 90s ladette culture. The 2007 smoking ban that turned pubs into baby shower venues. Covid. The wine o'clock brigade. The secret drinking. The shame. The sandwich generation burnout. And why so many women now sit on what Janey calls the edge of an NHS crisis.If you're sober curious, questioning your drinking, or trying to understand why quitting wine feels so impossible, this one is for you.If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice for Janey.www.instagram.com/janeyhollidaycoachingwww.facebook.com/janeyhollidaycoaching https://www.linkedin.com/in/janey-holliday-1445b821/www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/ www.instagram.com/grownuphustle/Learn more about your ad choices.
