Quitting Alcohol: Why Sobriety Made Me A Better Parent | Millie Mackintosh | #237

In this episode of A Millennial Mind, I sit down with Millie Mackintosh for an honest conversation about sobriety, motherhood and rebuilding your identity during a time of major personal change. We talk openly about questioning your relationship with alcohol, navigating anxiety and panic attacks, and the reality behind “mummy needs wine” culture. Millie shares why she stopped drinking, how becoming a parent reshaped her priorities, and what it really takes to show up more present for your children and yourself. This is a deeply emotional discussion about the sober curious movement, coping mechanisms, mental health and the pressure many women feel to keep everything together. Together, we explore how alcohol and anxiety can become linked, why telling the truth about your struggles matters, and how choosing sobriety can be part of becoming the person and parent you want to be. ✨ Who this episode is for • Anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol or exploring sobriety • Parents navigating anxiety, identity shifts or motherhood pressure • Women interested in sober curious living or quitting drinking • Anyone rebuilding themselves after a big life change ✨ What you’ll learn • Why Millie Mackintosh chose to stop drinking • The truth behind “mummy needs wine” culture • How alcohol can mask anxiety and emotional overwhelm • What helped her become a more present, grounded parent 🔔 Subscribe for more discussions on mental health, personal growth, and healing! / @shivanipaupodcast ✨ Connect with Millennial Mind ✨ Podcast Instagram:   / amillennialmind   Shivani Pau Instagram:   / shivani.pau   Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/shiva...
