'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon

'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.

    [Heruitsending] Waterveiligheid dié Vakansie: So Kan Jy Keer dat jou Kind Verdrink/ [Rebroadcast] Water Safety This Holiday: How to Prevent Your Child from Drowning

    Terwyl 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon 'n produksiebreek neem en werk aan nuwe inhoud, deel ons weer van ons gewildste episodes. En met die vakansie en feestyd wat voorlê is dié episode oor waterveiligheid baie belangrik. Daniëlla praat met Petro Meyer, 'n sweminstrukteur van die NSRI, oor waterveiligheid, reëls en mites. Dis ook die storie van Suzanne Smit, en haar dogtertjie wat verdrink het. Suzanne het haar, in haar eie woorde, "weer lewendig gebid". Hierdie is 'n ma se getuienis, en 'n storie wat sy deel oor waterveiligheid wat ook ander kinders se lewens kan red. While 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon takes a production break to work on new content, we’re sharing some of our most popular episodes again. With the holidays and festive season approaching, this episode on water safety is especially important. Daniëlla speaks with Petro Meyer, a swimming instructor from the NSRI, about water safety, rules, and myths. It’s also the story of Suzanne Smit and her daughter, who almost drowned. In Suzanne’s own words, she “prayed her back to life.” This is a mother’s testimony and a story she shares about water safety, which could save the lives of other children. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z

    Ons 330 dae in NICU: Gebore op 25 weke & 440 gram/ Our 330 Days in the NICU: Born at 25 Weeks & 440 Grams

    Mari Botha se dogtertjie, Ruaché, het net 440 gram geweeg toe sy op 25 weke gebore is. Wat gevolg het, was 330 dae in die neonatale eenheid (NICU), terwyl Mari sélf vir haar eie lewe moes veg, omdat haar niere ingegee het. In hierdie episode vertel sy vir Daniëlla wat sy as preemie-mamma geleer het, deel sy raad vir ander ouers met kinders in NICU, en vertel van die uitdagende pad wat hulle gestap het voor, tydens en ná hulle maande in die hospital. *November is Preemie-bewustheidsmaand, met "World Prematurity Day" wat op 17 November gevier word. Mari Botha’s daughter, Ruaché, weighed just 440 grams when she was born at 25 weeks. What followed was a journey of 330 days in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), during which Mari herself had to fight for her life due to kidney failure. In this episode, Mari shares with Daniëlla the lessons she's learned as a preemie mom, offers heartfelt advice for other parents with children in the NICU, and reflects on the challenging path they traveled before, during, and after their months in the hospital. * November is Prematurity Awareness Month, with "World Prematurity Day" observed on November 17. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z

    Nageboorte Depressie: Die eerlike gesprek wat luisteraars wou hoor / Postpartum Depression: The Episode You Asked For

    Hierdie episode is die gevolg van talle boodskappe versoeke van luisteraars van 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon. Nageboorte depressie. Post-partum depressie. Méér as net "baby blues" - en meer algemeen as wat ons almal besef. En ten spyte daarvan dat dit so baie van ons raak, steeds nie iets waaroor ons graag praat nie. Maar in dié episode praat Daniëlla en kliniese sielkundige Gerda Kriel wél sonder skroom. Gerda deel haar eie storie oor nageboorte depressie, iets wat sy ook as kind beleef het toe haar ma daaraan gely het. Sy verduidelik waarom dit gebeur, wat jy kan doen (vooraf, tydens en na die tyd) en waarom dit nooit te laat is om in te gryp nie. Ons praat ook oor hoe PPD ook mans en pa's raak; en hoe jy jou man, vriendinne of kollegas kan bystaan wanneer jy die tekens raaksien. This episode is the result of many messages and requests from listeners of 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon. Postpartum depression... It's more than just the "baby blues" – and more common than we all realize. Despite affecting so many of us, it’s still something we are often reluctant to talk about. But in this episode, Daniëlla and clinical psychologist Gerda Kriel talk openly and without hesitation. Gerda shares her own story of postpartum depression, something she also experienced as a child when her mother suffered from it. She explains why it happens, what you can do (before, during, and after), and why it’s never too late to intervene. We also discuss how PPD affects men and fathers too, and how you can support your husband, friends, or colleagues when you recognize the signs. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z

Dit kan ons magteloos laat voel, maar daar is dinge wat ons kan doen om hulle te ondersteun. In hierdie episode gesels die opvoedkundige profiel-ontleder Charne Lieberberg met Daniëlla en verduidelik hoe kinders se breine stres anders verwerk as volwassenes. Sy deel ook bemagtigende, maklike strategieë wat ouers kan gebruik om hul kinders toe te rus met die vaardighede om angs te oorkom en beheer te neem oor stresvolle situasies. * Kontak Charne by www.samindframe.com of 076 971 8138. As parents, we all know how difficult it can be to watch our children face stress—whether it’s from exams, friendships, new environments, or even changes in their bodies. While it may leave us feeling helpless, there are steps we can take to support them. In this episode, educational profile analyst Charne Lieberberg sits down with Daniëlla to break down how children’s brains process stress differently from adults. She also shares powerful, easy-to-follow strategies to help parents equip their children with the skills to overcome anxiety and take control of stressful situations. * You can reach Charne at www.samindframe.com or 076 971 8138. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z

    Borskanker is op 37 by Lydia van der Kooy gediagnoseer.

Lydia deel met Daniëlla en luisteraars haar kanker-storie van die afgelope twee jaar: hoe sy dit vir haar vier seuns vertel het, die chemo-proses beleef het en mense se vrae hanteer het. Maar sy vertel ook hoe dit haar verhouding met haar man versterk en haar geloof verdiep het. *Dié is episode 1 van 2 tydens Borskanker-bewustheidsmaand: Luister ook die volgende episode waar 'n dokter belangrike mediese kennis deel.

She also discusses how this experience strengthened her relationship with her husband and deepened her faith. *This is the first of two episodes for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Be sure to listen to the next episode, where a doctor shares important medical insights. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z
