À propos de cet audio

Welcome to the essential podcast for anyone in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond who's ready to drink differently. While Gen Z gets all the headlines for being sober curious, let’s not forget that the real moderation revolution is happening in midlife – and this is your space to explore it without judgment, pressure, or expectation.

Join me to discover the people, places and brands making it easier than ever to live a life less intoxicated, whether that's for tonight, this week, or forever.

I get it – as a midlife moderator, you're not looking to reinvent yourself completely. You want drinks that taste like the ones you already love, new and exciting options with something special to offer, experiences that enhance rather than shorten your evenings, and practical advice that fits your busy, demanding life.

I’m Denise Hamilton-Mace, founder and editor of Low No Drinker Magazine – the leading global publication for mindful and sober curious drinkers and a professional public speaker on all things low, no and light.

My goal with this podcast is to help you feel more confident and more comfortable in your choice to explore a life less intoxicated, and to help you find, understand and enjoy the drinks that make it possible.

If you are, or aspire to be the type of savvy moderator who recognises that drinking less is not a binary decision for you, who knows that coasting with mid-strength drinks, alternating through zebra-striping or bookending the start and end of your night with something non-alcoholic are all viable options then this show is for you.

And you’ll leave each episode feeling motivated and supported to keep energy for the things that matter most: family, health, career, and living life on your own terms.

Each week on the Low No Drinker Podcast, you’ll get to either:

Meet the Makers: Join me in intimate conversations with the experts, founders, brewers, distillers, and visionaries who are creating premium alcohol-free drinks that don't compromise on taste. Discover their personal journeys, what drives their innovation, and why their products are perfect for the discerning midlife palate.

Mindful Moderation Solo episodes: Practical deep-dives into the questions that matter to sophisticated drinkers who want to moderate smartly, with topics like:

- Why do premium alcohol-free drinks cost the same as full-strength versions when there's no alcohol and no tax?

- How can I find an alcohol-free red wine that actually tastes like the Malbec I love?

- What's the real difference between no, low and light alcohol options?

- How do I navigate social situations when I'm the only one moderating?

- What are the best functional drinks for midlife energy and wellness?

This isn't about going completely dry or following someone else's rules. It's about making mindful choices, exploring sophisticated alternatives, and practising practical moderation that suits your lifestyle. Whether you're a Gen X professional looking to improve your health, a busy parent wanting more energy, or someone who simply wants to enjoy better mornings while still celebrating life's special moments, this podcast helps you drink your own way.

Mindful Drinking & Moderation in Midlife: Low No Drinker Podcast is perfect for mindful drinkers, sober curious adults, midlife moderators, health-conscious professionals, premium alcohol-free enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the low, no and light or mid-strength alcohol lifestyle.

    The festive season isn't one massive willpower test—it's death by a thousand shots. With six weeks of relentless celebrations from Thanksgiving through New Year's, willpower alone won't cut it.

    In this episode, I unpack why beliefs, not willpower, are the real key to changing your drinking habits.

    I share a four-step framework for gathering evidence to challenge limiting beliefs about alcohol, celebrations, and what fun actually means.

    From assessing your self-talk to testing new behaviours at family gatherings, this episode gives you practical tools to navigate the season's cumulative exhaustion and build a Christmas that serves you on your own terms, not some outdated template from the past.

    If you've ever wondered why that glass of wine or pint of beer hits differently now than it did ten years ago, this episode breaks down the reality behind why midlife drinking hits differently.

    I explore three critical body changes that make alcohol more potent as we age: declining water content (dropping from 60% to 50% by our 50s), hormonal shifts during menopause and andropause, and how alcohol sabotages the restorative sleep our bodies desperately need.

    From practical pacing strategies to adaptogenic alternatives and sleep hygiene tips, I offer actionable ways to work with your changing body rather than fight against it. Because you're not broken – you're just not 18 anymore.

    0:00 Listener Question Inspo
    2:42 Body Water And Alcohol Intensity
    5:47 Hormones, Menopause And Andropause
    8:27 Weight gain, adaptogens & nootropics
    10:21 The Nightcap Myth And REM Sleep
    13:34 Sleep Hygiene And Alcohol-Free Nightcaps
