If you’ve spent time in a Home Goods recently ,you have likely seen wine glasses and other swag decorated with cheeky phrases like “Mommy Juice”, “Surviving Motherhood, One Glass at a Time” or “Mama Needs Some Wine”.
These are examples of something the internet deems MOMMY WINE CULTURE, a societal-backed phenomenon celebrating moms that drink as a way to cope with the day-to-day stress of parenting.
After receiving a viewer episode suggestion on the topic, Claire & Christina discuss the bonding element of the movement, viewer feedback, the impact alcohol has had on their lives and ways for moms to escape and take in self care, outside of the bottle.
