About the Podcast

Wine, Whiskey & Life
Because sometimes you're raising a glass to cheers and other times to drown your sorrows.
This podcast is for the ones who’ve lived too much to pretend, felt too deeply to fake it and are sick of faking it and still show up scarred, sacred, and sipping something strong.

Hosted by Michelle A. Burke an author, speaker, and the no-BS voice behind Hot Mess Magic, Wine, Whiskey & Life is where real talk flows like a good pour. No filters. No fluff. Just raw, rebellious conversations about the moments that break us, make us, and everything in between.

We go there: into the unraveling, the rebuilding, the identity crises, the quiet grief, the messy healing, and the unexpected joy that comes from not giving up on yourself.

Sometimes it’s deep. Sometimes it’s funny. Sometimes it’s a punch to the gut with a shot of truth on the side.

Grab your drink of choice. You’re not alone here and you’re sure as hell not meant to do life on mute.

Welcome to the show which feels like a night with old friends full of real talk, big laughs and zero judgment.
