Hosted by Erica Mallery, alcohol mindset coach and former daily wine drinker (and weekend binge drinker), this podcast explores mindful drinking, harm reduction, nervous system regulation, and emotional wellness for women who want to drink less, feel better, and laugh more! If you’re tired of all-or-nothing sobriety messaging, sick of the shame spiral around drinking, or curious about Dry January alternatives, this podcast offers a compassionate, empowering approach to change. Each episode blends real talk, science-backed insights, and practical tools to help you understand why you drink, how to reduce overdrinking, and how to reconnect with yourself—without labels, rock bottoms, or giving up your social life.

In this episode of the ShameOver: Drink Less Podcast , I sit down with Jessica Tanir , an integration guide, health coach, and former bartender, to talk about the intense drinking culture inside the hospitality industry and how it shaped her relationship with alcohol. Jessica shares what it was like working in high-profile restaurants and nightlife spaces in New York City and Miami , where drinking after shifts, blacking out, and overindulging were completely normalized. She opens up about the “double life” she was living—building a wellness-focused life on one hand while still surrounded by alcohol culture on the other. We also talk about the moment that made her realize something had to change, how she started with a short break from alcohol, and why taking things in small steps can be so much more effective than going all-in with pressure and perfection. If you’ve ever wondered whether your drinking habits have just been normalized by your environment, this conversation is going to hit. In this episode, we cover: Jessica’s background as a bartender in NYC and Miami The reality of drinking culture in hospitality and nightlife Why blackout drinking can start to feel “normal” The connection between environment and overdrinking Her wake-up call moment with alcohol Why a short break can be more powerful than an all-or-nothing mindset How sober curiosity often starts quietly Learn more about Jessica Tanir: The Reconnection Retreat - https://www.jessicatanir.com/retreat Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jessicatanir?igsh=MTlvYW00c3VqZ2RxMQ== Work With Me If you’re ready to: Drink less without giving it up entirely Break the all-or-nothing cycle Regulate your nervous system…","meta_description":"What happens when someone who spent years behind the bar starts questioning alcohol for herself?
