Mommy Sober Culture: Recent Episodes
Berkeley
A podcast for people who are sober, sober curious or may be re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol. Instead of "mommy wine culture", we are creating a new culture of fun, sober journeys, spirituality, and all things motherhood/womanhood.
Does not drinking make me boring? What do people think of my choice to be alcohol free?
These are things I have worried about. What about you? Today we will look at these questions and I will talk about how I am using them as a catalyst to learn about myself and grow.
In today's episode we talk about what might be next after Dry January and the realities of attempting to moderate.
