How do you navigate life as a sober mom when the alcohol industry has spent millions of marketing dollars to embed the “mommy needs wine” message firmly in our culture? 

How do you talk to other moms about your decision to take a break from drinking and see what it’s like to be a sober mom? 

Motherhood without alcohol can feel like a foreign concept for many of us. We’ve been convinced, through advertising, marketing, social media and each other, that drinking is our well earned reward for the hard work of motherhood.

It's time to retire the Wine Mom cliché. It's a stereotype that's trite, insulting and minimizes the genuine difficulties of motherhood. It's insulting, trite and actually dangerous.

Sober moms are stepping outside the box, modeling healthy coping mechanisms for their kids and prioritizing their own mental and physical health rather than checking out in the evenings with a substance that actually increases anxiety and depression.
