概要

 The Wine O’Clock Woman
New episodes every Wednesday
Monthly guest conversations

This is a podcast for women who know that wine o’clock has become more than a habit.
It names what’s happening around the drinking — the pressure, exhaustion, emotional load, and the quiet ways women keep coping while slowly disappearing.

I’m Rebecca Thomson, a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist, former teacher, and mother. I work with women who are stuck in repeating patterns they can feel, but haven’t yet had named.

I also know what it’s like to pour a drink at 6 pm most nights just to switch off and survive the noise of the day.

Alongside solo episodes, I host guest conversations with women who have been on their own journey with alcohol, and with specialists who help name the realities many women are carrying — including menopause, motherhood, grief, neurodiversity, social anxiety, fear of missing out, and the pressure of high-level careers.

Drinking isn’t the problem.
It’s the signal that something isn’t right.

These conversations are about understanding why alcohol becomes the relief vehicle, and naming what’s really going on around wine o’clock.

    Episode 24 | Why Success Can Trigger Drinking (The Hidden Alcohol Trigger Nobody Talks About)
    2026/03/18
    Have you ever noticed that after being praised or recognised for something you’ve done well, you suddenly feel the urge to pour a glass of wine?

    In this episode, I explore a rarely discussed alcohol trigger: success itself. For many capable women, compliments, praise, or recognition can feel surprisingly uncomfortable in the nervous system and alcohol can become a quick way to regulate that feeling.

    I share a personal story from my teaching career, explore how this pattern can begin in childhood, and offer practical ways to respond differently when someone praises you.

    In this episode we explore:
    • Why praise and recognition can trigger the urge to drink
    • The nervous system response behind the “success trigger”
    • How childhood experiences shape our response to praise
    • Simple phrases that help you receive compliments with ease If success or praise has ever felt strangely uncomfortable, this episode will help you understand why, and how to change the pattern.

  • Episode 23 | Guest Conversation: Navigating Alcohol and Neurodiversity with Tracy Turtle

    Episode 23 | Guest Conversation: Navigating Alcohol and Neurodiversity with Tracy Turtle
    2026/03/14
    In this episode of The Wine O’Clock Woman, I’m joined by Tracy Turtle for a deeply honest conversation about alcohol and neurodiversity.

    Tracy shares her personal journey and opens up about how her neurodivergent experience shaped her relationship with drinking.
    Together, we explore the challenges, misunderstandings, when alcohol becomes intertwined with coping, identity, and everyday life.

    This conversation sheds light on an area that is often overlooked: how neurodiversity can influence the way we experience alcohol, social expectations, and wellbeing.

    Tracy Turtle is the founder of Mandala Jade, where she helps people simplify their homes and work lives to create space for what truly matters.
    Through practical workshops and one-to-one support, she guides individuals to reduce overwhelm, create calm, functional spaces, and embrace more intentional, sustainable ways of living.

    Before founding Mandala Jade, Tracy spent 25 years in financial services. A Chartered Accountant by training, she worked in London, Bermuda, and Singapore before joining NatWest, where her role expanded into culture, wellbeing, and inclusion, shaping the compassionate, people-centred approach she brings to her work today.

  • Episode 22 | Why You Keep Breaking Your "Not Tonight" Promise (Wine O’Clock Drinking Pattern)

    Episode 22 | Why You Keep Breaking Your "Not Tonight" Promise (Wine O’Clock Drinking Pattern)
    2026/03/11
    Many capable women wake up fully intending not to drink… yet somehow find themselves pouring a glass by evening.

    In this episode we explore the hidden Wine O’Clock pattern that often begins hours before the first drink. You’ll hear why the decision to drink rarely starts at six o’clock, how the afternoon negotiation quietly begins, and why this cycle can leave women feeling frustrated and confused.

    If you’ve ever wondered why the “not tonight” promise keeps collapsing, this episode will help you start recognising the pattern behind it.
