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. Topics include mindful drinking, moderation, rebound drinking, emotional regulation, identity, self-trust, and breaking free from the wine-o’clock detox-to-retox cycle. Lose the hangover, not the booze—and take your power back.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/shameover-the-drink-less-podcast-6992327"},"episode":{"title":"Why Your Drinking Habits Aren’t the Problem — Your Mindset Might Be (Part 2 of 3)","slug":"why-your-drinking-habits-aren-t-the-problem-your-mindset-might-be-part-2-of-3","published_at":"2026-03-13T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/shameover-the-drink-less-podcast-6992327/why-your-drinking-habits-aren-t-the-problem-your-mindset-might-be-part-2-of-3","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/shameover-the-drink-less-podcast-6992327","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/8005d72abeb9a13afedac84bcf6d5e820eff936b4e853a3e85b8611d49af31fa/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI1YzE2YTNkMC01MjBmLTQzZDgtODY0NS1mYWI3NTg0NTQ2NzkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIzOTNiMTlkMi1hZjAwLTQ1NmYtYjBkZS0yNjM2Njc2YWRlZTQiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OGQ1N2M1ZDhkMGQyOTBiMWY5ZWNkNjEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjliMDgxNDMyMDc2MGM1MTM0YWQwMjE3L2VyaWNhLWFuZC1zaGFtZW92ZXJzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTMtMTBfXzIxLTM4LTI3Lm1wMyJ9.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/8005d72abeb9a13afedac84bcf6d5e820eff936b4e853a3e85b8611d49af31fa/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI1YzE2YTNkMC01MjBmLTQzZDgtODY0NS1mYWI3NTg0NTQ2NzkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIzOTNiMTlkMi1hZjAwLTQ1NmYtYjBkZS0yNjM2Njc2YWRlZTQiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OGQ1N2M1ZDhkMGQyOTBiMWY5ZWNkNjEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjliMDgxNDMyMDc2MGM1MTM0YWQwMjE3L2VyaWNhLWFuZC1zaGFtZW92ZXJzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTMtMTBfXzIxLTM4LTI3Lm1wMyJ9.mp3","summary":"In part two of my conversation with Jessica Tanir , we go beyond alcohol itself and into the deeper mindset patterns that often drive our habits. We talk about what happened after Jessica first took a break from drinking, why she eventually chose to continue living alcohol-free, and how easy it is for labels like “sober,” “drinker,” or even “problem drinker” to become part of someone’s identity. This episode is a powerful reminder that your drinking habits are rarely just about alcohol. They’re often connected to self-worth, people pleasing, negative self-talk, pressure, perfectionism, and the way you see yourself. Jessica and I also talk about why so many women are disconnected from themselves, how productivity culture keeps us stuck in cycles of stress and overconsumption, and why real change starts with awareness and self-respect — not shame. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of overthinking, starting over, beating yourself up, or feeling like you “failed,” this episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: What happened after Jessica’s first sober experiment Why labeling yourself can backfire The problem with making sobriety or drinking your identity Why mindset matters more than willpower The connection between alcohol and self-worth People pleasing, perfectionism, and negative self-talk Why so many women struggle to truly connect with themselves Productivity culture and the pressure to always be doing more 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 Build confidence without alcohol Come join me inside ShameOver.
