Ever wondered how some mums manage to juggle it all, especially when dealing with the pressures of 'mommy wine culture'? In this episode of Eternally Amy, host Amy Liz Harrison sits down with Hadley Sorenson to chat about motherhood, sobriety, and the journey from a life dominated by alcohol to one of clarity and purpose.
Hadley, a mum of three boys and a former mortgage industry professional, shares her candid story about battling postpartum depression and rediscovering her identity beyond the wine glass. She opens up about the normalisation of drinking in motherhood and the toll it takes on mental health. Hadley’s journey is not just about quitting alcohol; it’s about breaking free from the cycles of shame and regret that often accompany it.
She talks about the 'head to toe knowing' moment that made her realise she needed to make a change and how she turned that realisation into a lasting commitment to sobriety. Amy and Hadley also dive into the deconstruction of faith, life with ADHD, and the importance of self-love and community in recovery.
Hadley’s book, 'The Dirty Truth on Social Drinking: Everything in Moderation and Other BS', explores these themes further, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to live sober in a culture that glorifies alcohol. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the impact of alcohol on motherhood and find inspiration in the stories of those who have successfully navigated their way out.
