I'm judging it as I have some issues with it, and what they're doing is normalizing abnormal drinking.
Picture this: a festival where moms gather to sip wine while their kids play nearby. Sounds fun, right? But is it really just harmless fun or something more concerning? In this episode of 'The Real Deal,' hosts Julie Maida and Veronica Valli tackle the contentious issue of day-drinking among mothers. They dive into the recent MomsTo drinking festival, scrutinizing whether these 'boozy mommy play-dates' are normalizing problematic drinking habits.
Julie and Veronica don't hold back as they question the impact of alcohol marketing on mothers and the societal pressures that make sobriety seem so challenging. Through raw and candid discussions, they share their own journeys and the stigma they've faced in their recovery. This episode isn't just about pointing fingers; it's about opening a dialogue on how we view alcohol in parenting and offering support for those who choose a different path.
Whether you're a mom who's curious about cutting back or someone who wants to understand the complex relationship between motherhood and drinking, this episode is packed with heartfelt stories and practical advice that resonate deeply.
