Have you ever wondered what it’s like to dive deep into the world of wine while facing the challenges of online bullying?
In today’s episode I have Natalie MacLean back on the podcast and she’s diving into the world of wine through an experiential and personal lens.
Natalie shares her unique approach to wine journalism, the emotional and cultural impact of wine, and challenges within the hospitality industry - from high rates of substance abuse to etiquette norms that stigmatize open discussions about alcohol misuse. Natalie also shares her personal experiences towards alcohol consumption and online bullying.
So, if you are ready to dig into the emotional and cultural layers of wine, confront industry challenges like online bullying, and get a taste of Natalie’s adventurous stories this episode is for you!
Today's episode is part 2 of my chat with Natalie. If you missed the first part where we chat about Natalie's journey as a wine writer, her memoir Wine Witch on Fire, and if wine reviews are actually helpful, then go back and listen to episode 88!
