Jiffy Pop Memories: How Childhood Shaped Our Views on Alcohol

We were conditioned from a very young age, how to feel about alcohol.
Ever wondered how childhood influences our views on alcohol? Nicole and Tammie, the lively duo behind the Sober Sisters Society Podcast, take you on a nostalgic trip back to 1976. Picture this: 'Summer Breeze' by Seals and Crofts playing in the background, Jiffy Pop popping on the stove, and Tang in your glass. But amid these fond memories lies a deeper story about how they were subtly conditioned to see alcohol as a staple of fun and sophistication.
In this episode, the sisters reflect on family gatherings where alcohol was always present, making it seem like an essential part of socializing. They share candid tales from their youth, showing how these early experiences shaped their perceptions and led them down a path where alcohol seemed unavoidable. As they grew older, they began to recognize the negative impact of alcohol on their lives.
Nicole and Tammie open up about their journey to sobriety, detailing the pivotal moments that made them put the bottle down for good. They discuss the changes they made to support their new lifestyle, from daily habits to mindset shifts. It's not all serious talk, though; their signature humor and sisterly banter make this episode both entertaining and enlightening.
Whether you're sober, sober-curious, or supporting someone on their journey, this episode offers valuable insights into how our early years shape our relationship with alcohol. Tune in for a mix of laughter, reflection, and practical advice on living an alcohol-free life. And remember, as the sisters say, 'don't drink like my sister!'
