'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon is 'n podcast wat die wêreld van die moderne Afrikaanse ma weerspieel. Aanbieder Daniëlla van Heerden (self 'n ma van twee) voer openhartige gesprekke met kenners en spesiale gaste. Die fokus is nie net babas en kinders se gesondheid nie, maar ook ma's se emosionele welstand.
Hier sal jy saam lag vir daardie oomblikke wat net 'n ma kan verstaan - soos dat vyf minute alleen in die motor soms kan tel as "me-time"!
Meer ernstige onderwerpe soos postpartum depressie, tantrums en boelies word egter ook openlik bespreek.
Alledaagse én bekende ma's kom kuier ook in die ateljee om hulle stories te deel.
'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon sal jou inspireer, bemagtig en herinner dat jy (ten spyte daarvan dat jy soms twyfel) altyd die beste ma is vir jou kind.


'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon is a podcast that reflects the world of the modern Afrikaans mom.
Host Daniëlla van Heerden (herself a mom of two) engages in candid conversations with experts and special guests.
The focus extends beyond the health of babies and children to encompass the emotional well-being of mothers.
Here, you'll share laughter for those moments only another mom can understand – like how five minutes alone in the car can sometimes count as "me-time"!
However, more serious topics such as postpartum depression, tantrums, and bullying are also openly discussed.
Everyday and well-known moms alike drop by the studio to share their stories.
'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon will inspire, empower, and remind you that, despite moments of doubt, you are always the best mom for your child.

    Niël Scholtz: Om Weer Te Lééf Ná Jou Vrou Sterf/ Niël Scholtz: Rebuilding a Life After Losing Your Wife

    Niël Scholtz: Om Weer Te Lééf Ná Jou Vrou Sterf/ Niël Scholtz: Rebuilding a Life After Losing Your Wife

    In minder as 'n jaar het Niël Scholtz se lewe verander.
    Borskanker is by sy vrou, Anica, gediagnoseer terwyl sy hoogswanger was met hulle tweede kind. Sy was maar 29 jaar oud.
    Die egpaar het moeilike besluite in die gesig gestaar: 'n noodkeiser, chemoterapie en 'n mastektomie.
    Ten spyte van hul pogings, het die kanker na haar brein versprei, en Anica is'n paar maande later oorlede.
    In hierdie episode van 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon deel Niël sy storie.
    Hy vertel vir Daniëlla hoe hy moes opstaan na dié ondenkbare seer en aanpas by 'n nuwe normaal. Ons praat ook oor hoe hy en die seuntjies vir Anica onthou en gedenk, hoe hy emosioneel vir homself sorg; en oor genade, hoop en 'n nuwe hoofstuk.
    {Hierdie is die eerste episode in 'n reeks wat fokus op pa's, met die viering van Vadersdag in Juniemaand}
    * As jy wil kontak maak met Niël, stuur vir Daniëlla 'n boodskap op M&M se Instagram- of Facebook-blad, of stuur 'n e-pos na mamikrofoon@gmail.com

    In less than a year, Niël Scholtz's life was turned upside down.
    His wife, Anica, was diagnosed with breast cancer while heavily pregnant with their second child, at just 29 years old. They faced difficult decisions: an emergency cesarean, chemotherapy, and a mastectomy. Despite their efforts, the cancer spread to her brain, and Anica passed away a few months later.
    In this episode of 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon, Niël shares his story.
    He tells Daniëlla about rising above unimaginable pain and adapting to a new normal.
    We discuss how he and his sons remember and honor Anica, his emotional self-care, and the themes of grace, hope, and new beginnings.
    {This is the first episode in a series focusing on fathers, in celebration of Father's Day in June.}

    TWEE Ma's & 'n Mikrofoon: Greteli de Swardt/WO Moms & a Microphone: Greteli de Swardt

    TWEE Ma's & 'n Mikrofoon: Greteli de Swardt/WO Moms & a Microphone: Greteli de Swardt

    Die aktrise Greteli De Swardt het op 20 getrou en op 21 ma geword.
    Die huwelik was beplan - maar die baba was 'n verrassing!
    Terwyl die meeste van haar vriende dus deurnag-swotsessies of -partyjies gehou het, was Greteli soms twee uur soggens nag wakker om doeke te ruil en te borsvoed.
    In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla ('n "ouer ma"...) met Greteli ('n jonger ma) oor die ervaring en uitdagings om in jou vroeë twintigs mamma te word; hoe dit haar vriendskappe beïnvloed het; en hoe die koms van klein Alé haar en haar man se huwelik verander en verryk het.
    Actress Greteli De Swardt got married at 20 and became a mom at 21. The marriage was planned — the baby was a surprise!
    While most of her friends were having all-night study sessions or parties, Greteli was sometimes up at 2 a.m. changing diapers and breastfeeding.
    In this episode, Daniëlla (an "older mom"...) talks with Greteli (a younger mom) about the experience and challenges of becoming a mom in your early twenties; how it affected her friendships; and how the arrival of little Alé changed and enriched her and her husband's marriage.

    Groot Emosies, Klein Lyfies: Raad vir Tantrums & Woede-uitbarstings/Big Emotions, Little People: Advice for Tantrums, Meltdowns & Outbursts

    Groot Emosies, Klein Lyfies: Raad vir Tantrums & Woede-uitbarstings/Big Emotions, Little People: Advice for Tantrums, Meltdowns & Outbursts

    Om kalm te bly terwyl jou kind se emosies buite beheer is, is een van ouerskap se groot uitdagings. En wanneer so tantrum dan nog plaasvind in 'n besige winkelsentrum, met verbygangers wat hulle tonge klik en jou sommer hardop veroordeel, voel jy dalk sommer ook lus om op die grond te gaan sit en huil!
    In hierdie episode help voorligtingsielkundige Fiona Doman van The Parenting Partner ons om sin te maak van groot emosies.
    Sy verduidelik vir Daniëlla hoe kinders se brein aanmekaargesit is en waarom hulle nie emosies nie kan reguleer soos 'n volwasse nie, en hoe ons hulle kan help om die nodige vaardighede aan te leer.
    Ons praat ook oor ouer kinders en hulle emosionele uitdagings.
    Aan die einde van dié episode sal jy verstaan dat tantrums (hoewel allermins aangenaam) eintlik 'n baie goeie teken is in jou kind se ontwikkeling!

    Staying calm while your child's emotions are out of control is one of parenting's greatest challenges. And when a tantrum happens in a busy shopping mall, with passersby clicking their tongues and openly judging you, you might feel like sitting on the ground and crying too!
    In this episode, counseling psychologist Fiona Doman from The Parenting Partner helps us make sense of big emotions. She explains to Daniëlla how children's brains are wired and why they can't regulate emotions like adults, and how we can help them learn the necessary skills. We also discuss older children and their emotional challenges.
    By the end of this episode, you'll understand that tantrums (although far from pleasant) are actually a very good sign in your child's development!

    "Mom Guilt" Is 'n Lokval. Só Klim Jy Uit/ "Mom Guilt" Is a Trap. This is How You Get Out

    "Mom Guilt" Is 'n Lokval. Só Klim Jy Uit/ "Mom Guilt" Is a Trap. This is How You Get Out

    “Mom Guilt” is orals.
    Dis die stemmetjie in jou kop wat sê: "Ek werk te veel en skeep my kinders af." Of dalk: "Ek gee nie genóég aandag by die werk nie.”
    Dis: “Ek voel sleg omdat ek wens vir tyd sonder my kinders" en "Ek moet begin oefen" of “Ek moenie elke dag oefen nie, ek moet eerder by my kinders wees.”
    Hierdie is ‘n episode wat die luisteraars van ’n Ma & ’n Mikrofoon self aangevra het, en dis duidelik ‘n kwelpunt.
    “Mom Guilt” raak immers ons almal – en dit is selde konstruktief.
    Om dit te takel, praat Daniëlla met die kliniese sielkundige (en ma van 3) Gerda Kriel.
    Gerda kén “mom guilt” self alte goed, maar sy het danksy haar beroep ook al paar maniere ontwikkel om te te herken en dit te hanteer.
    Dié episode sal jou die vaardighede aanleer om die stemmetjie binne jou wat sê Jy’s nié genoeg nie, stil te maak – en te vervang met ‘n sterk, outentieke stem wat sê: “Ek is!”

    Hettie Brittz: 'Kweek Kinders Met Karakter' Vir 'n Nuwe Generasie Ma's/ Hettie Brittz: 'Growing Kids with Character' for a New Generation of Moms

    Hettie Brittz: 'Kweek Kinders Met Karakter' Vir 'n Nuwe Generasie Ma's/ Hettie Brittz: 'Growing Kids with Character' for a New Generation of Moms

    Sedert Hettie Brittz se ouerskapsboek "Kweek Kinders met Karakter" die eerste keer in 2007 gepubliseer is, het duisende kopieë verkoop en deel geword van Afrikaanse gesinne se verhaal en grootword-reis. Hettie, 'n ma van 3 (en nou ook ouma van 1!) het nou die boek opdateer en 'n nuwe weergawe is beskikbaar. Sy leer daarin dat jy jou kind werklik moet kén om hom of haar reg te kan hanteer - en dit beteken ook dat jy jouself (sterk- en swakpunte) moet ken.
    Daniëlla en Hettie gesels in dié onderhoud oor al die nuwe uitdagings wat vandag se ouers moet trotseer; Hettie se eie uitdagings as jong ma; wat sy sedertdien geleer het; en oor die gesin se nuwe lewe in Amerika. Hettie gee ook raad vir ander Afrikaanse mammas in die buiteland.

    Since Hettie Brittz's parenting book 'Growing Kids with Character' was first published in 2007, thousands of copies have been sold and have become part of many South African families' journey of raising children.
    Hettie, a mom of 3 (and now also a grandmother of 1!), has now updated the book, and a new version is available. In it, she teaches that you really need to know your child in order to handle him or her correctly - and that also means knowing yourself, both strengths and weaknesses.
    In this interview, Daniëlla and Hettie discuss all the new challenges that today's parents must face, Hettie's own challenges as a young mother, what she has learned since then, and about the family's new life in America. Hettie also gives advice to other South African moms living abroad.

    TWEE Ma's & 'n Mikrofoon: Simoné Pretorius / TWO Moms & a Microphone: Simoné Pretorius

    TWEE Ma's & 'n Mikrofoon: Simoné Pretorius / TWO Moms & a Microphone: Simoné Pretorius

    Simoné Pretorius is 'n film-, televisie- en teateraktrise. Maar in hierdie podcast praat sy minder dáároor, en meer oor 'n ander, groter rol: dié as ma.
    Haar dogtertjie Harper is 'n kleuter en kleinboet James is nog net 'n paar weke oud, en Simoné gesels met Daniëlla oor die hoogtepunte, die uitdagings en die tweeledigheid van ouerskap.
    Ons praat oor grootword, oor miskrame, die lewe wat uit die dood spruit... en dat formule-baba's darem eindelik ook almal méér as oukei is!

    Simoné Pretorius is a film, television, and theater actress. But in this podcast, she speaks only a little about that, and more about another, bigger role: being a mom.
    Her daughter Harper is a toddler, and little James is just a few weeks old. Simoné talks with Daniëlla about the highlights, the challenges, and the dichotomy of parenthood. We discuss growing up, miscarriages, life springing from death... and the fact that, after all, "formula babies" are actually more than just okay!
