About this podcast
The Running Wine Mom is a motherhood podcast for ambitious, busy moms navigating parenting, mental health, fitness, and identity beyond “just mom.”
Hosted by Samantha Cieslinski, this parenting podcast features real conversations about motherhood, women’s wellness, emotional regulation, body image, burnout, performance mindset, and the mental load of modern mom life.
Each week you’ll hear solo episodes and in-depth interviews with athletes, psychologists, authors, and experts on topics like:
• mental health for moms
• parenting in the digital age
• women’s hormone health
• fitness and running after kids
• high-achieving working moms
• resilience, confidence, and self-trust
• navigating marriage, ambition, and motherhood
Whether you're a working mom, stay-at-home mom, athlete mom, or simply trying to stay strong in the chaos of raising kids — this mom podcast is your space.
Listen on your run, during school pickup, or with a glass of wine after bedtime.
Motherhood. Mental strength. Real conversations.
