Sober, Shouty and Still Showing Up - Vic chats everything 'Mumming'

In this special episode of Sober Awkward, the tables are turned as Hamish interviews Vic about her brand new book Mumming: A Year of Trying (and Failing) to be a Better Parent.


They dive into the chaotic reality of parenting without booze, why Vic felt compelled to write about her loud, messy, very human experience of motherhood, and how the pressure to ‘get it right’ can leave mums feeling like they’re the only ones stuffing it up.


They chat about why talking honestly about failure, whether it’s with alcohol or with parenting, can be the thing that sets us free. Vic shares why having a calm, patient husband (aka Poor John) helps her stay somewhat balanced, and Hamish reflects on why all of Vic’s writing seems to circle back to one powerful thing: radical honesty.


Come for the laughs, stay for the reassurance — Need to feel like all those drinking and parenting fails were just what made you evolve? Well, you're in the right place!
