Ep. 197: Drunk-ish with Stefanie Wilder-Taylor

This podcast episode is a deeply personal one because the work of my guest, Stefanie Wilder-Taylor, both influenced my identity as a ‘fun mom’ who loved to drink and was an inspirational guide on my journey to sobriety. When I became a mom I fell in love with my son, and was also quickly overwhelmed by the physical and emotional work of taking care of a baby. I couldn’t believe how quickly my life changed and my independence and autonomy disappeared. I wondered if I would ever be able to relax and have fun again since my life was now dominated by work, running to day care, baby food, baths, bedtime and not much else. And I loved to drink. So when I discovered Stefanie’s funny books about motherhood with titles like Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay and Naptime Is the New Happy Hour I felt like I’d found my people. That morning, in the coffee shop, my son was 16 months old. It was 17 months after Naptime Is the New Happy Hour was published. I bought the paper and hid it away. Today I got to thank Stefanie for her honesty, bravery and vulnerability, both in stopping drinking and being brave enough to talk about it. 3 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women. My proven, step-by-step sober coaching program will teach you exactly how to stop drinking — and how to make it the best decision of your life.
