Free Download Celeste Yvonne, "It's Not about the Wine: The Loaded Truth behind Mommy Wine Culture"
English | ISBN: 1506486754 | 2023 | 217 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Alcohol isn't going to fix the systemic lack of support for mothers-and pretending it's the solution to surviving motherhood does more harm than good.
A wine glass etched with "Mommy needs wine"; a T-shirt that says, "I wine because my kids whine"; a onesie proclaiming, "I'm the reason mommy drinks."

But according to writer and mother Celeste Yvonne, it's a symptom of a much larger issue: the mental load of motherhood, a burden born from outdated family norms, traditional roles, and a systemic lack of support for moms-all of which impact our mental health.
In this refreshing, honest take on some of the most pressing concerns for twenty-first-century parents, Yvonne mixes research, cultural references, her own story, and engaging interviews with other moms who sought refuge in wine and found a way out.
