Description
'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.

Marciel Hopkins-Lourens se “vierde trimester” loop byna ten einde, saam met die viering van hulle seuntjie Halki se eerste drie maande as deel van die gesin. In hierdie episode gesels sy met Daniëlla oor die newborn bubble wat nou agter die rug is, en die nuwe mylpale wat voorlê: vir haar baba, vir haarself as ma, én vir haar loopbaan as TV-aanbieder, model, aktrise en lewensafrigter.
Marciel deel hoe sy dit regkry om ’n positiewe benadering tot ouerskap te handhaaf, hoekom gesondheid en fiksheid vir haar so ’n groot rol speel, en hoekom selfrespek en balans tussen werk en gesin ononderhandelbaar is.
Ons gesels ook oor die belangrike rol van pa’s, die druk van samelewingsverwagtinge, en hoekom elke ma haar eie pad moet stap – of soos Marciel dit self stel: “Mind your own motherhood.”
Marciel Hopkins-Lourens’ “fourth trimester” is drawing to a close as she and her husband celebrate the first three months of baby Halki’s life. In this episode, Marciel chats with Daniëlla about moving out of the newborn bubble and stepping into new milestones — for her son, for herself as a mother, and in her career as a TV presenter, model, actress, and life coach.
She shares how she manages to keep a positive approach to motherhood, why health and fitness are so important to her, and why self-respect and balance between work and family are non-negotiable. We also dive into the role of fathers, the pressure of societal expectations, and why every mom needs to follow her own path — or as Marciel puts it: “Mind your own motherhood.”

Dissipline kan maklik voel soos een van die moeilikste dele van ouerskap. Met soveel ouerskap style daar buite ("gentle!" "permissive!", "authoritative!") is dit nie vreemd dat ouers onseker voel oor watter benadering die “regte” een is nie.
In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met arbeidsterapeut Lizanne du Plessis van "Doelgerigte Ouerskap" oor wat dissipline eintlik beteken. Ons verken hoekom dit minder oor straf en meer oor leiding en leer gaan, en hoe ons eie emosionele regulering as ouers ’n reuse-verskil kan maak.
Discipline can feel like one of the trickiest parts of parenting. With so many parenting styles out there – gentle, permissive, authoritative – it’s easy to feel unsure about which approach is “right.”
In this episode, Daniëlla sits down with parenting expert Lizanne du Plessis to unpack what discipline really means. They explore why it’s less about punishment and more about guiding and teaching our kids, and how our own emotional regulation as parents can make all the difference.

Hoekom is ons land so sleg as dit kom by spaar – en wat beteken dit vir ons gesinne?
In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met finansiële raadgewer én pa van drie, Leon-Ben Lamprecht, oor die groot geldgewoontes wat Suid-Afrikaners terughou. Ons praat oor skuld, die druk om “ryk te lyk,” en hoekom dit só belangrik is om vroeg al met ons kinders oor geld te gesels. Leon-Ben deel praktiese wenke vir ouers: hoe om spaar ’n spanpoging in die gesin te maak en hoe jy 'n finansiële rolmodel kan wees.

In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met Wanya Du Preez, wat saam met haar gesin al byna ’n dekade in die VSA woon. Sy deel die uitdagings van aanpassing aan ’n nuwe kultuur, die belang van familie en vriendskappe, en hoe gemeenskap en geloof hulle deur moeilike tye gedra het.
Ons praat oor die verskille tussen Suid-Afrika en Amerika – van veiligheid en geleenthede, tot die kos en tradisies wat sy nog altyd mis. Wanya vertel ook hoe haar kinders floreer in hul nuwe omgewing.
Hierdie gesprek bou voort op verlede week se episode met Lenique Hutton, wat ná ’n paar jaar oorsee teruggekeer het Suid-Afrika toe. Twee stories, twee perspektiewe... sodat jy kan luister, leer, en dalk jou eie pad beter verstaan.
In this episode, Daniëlla speaks with Wanya Du Preez, who has lived in the United States with her family for almost a decade. She shares the challenges of adapting to a new culture, the importance of family and friendships, and how community and faith carried them through difficult times.
We talk about the differences between South Africa and America – from safety and opportunities, to the food and traditions she still misses. Wanya also explains how her children are thriving in their new environment, and how the journey has helped their family grow stronger.
This conversation follows last week’s episode with Lenique Hutton, who returned to South Africa after living abroad. Two stories, two perspectives... so you can listen, learn, and perhaps see your own path more clearly.

Dink jy daaraan om jou tasse te pak en oorsee te gaan? In hierdie gesprek gesels Daniëlla met Lenique Hutten, wat saam met haar gesin ’n paar jaar in Nederland gewoon het – en toe besluit het om terug te keer na Suid-Afrika. Ons praat oor die uitdagings van emigrasie, die aanpassing aan ’n nuwe kultuur, die impak op kinders se skool- en sosiale lewe, en hoe verlange na familie en ’n gevoel van "behoort" uiteindelik hul besluit beïnvloed het. Lenique deel ook watter lesse hulle as gesin geleer het, en hoe die ervaring hulle sterker gemaak het.
* Hierdie episode is deel van ’n tweeluik oor emigrasie – volgende week hoor ons van ’n gesin wat nege jaar gelede na die VSA verhuis het… en stééds daar is.
Thinking about packing your bags and moving overseas? In this episode, Daniëlla speaks to Lenique Hutten, who lived in the Netherlands with her family for a few years – and then decided to move back to South Africa. We talk about the challenges of emigrating, adjusting to a new culture, the impact on children’s school and social lives, and how longing for family and a sense of belonging ultimately influenced their decision. Lenique also shares the lessons they learned as a family, and how the experience made them stronger.
This episode is part of a two-part series on emigration – next week, we’ll hear from a family who moved to the USA nine years ago… and are still there.

Die Grootste Leuens oor Borsvoeding (Wat ’n Vroedvrou Wil Hê Jy moet Weet)
Dit is borsvoedingsweek – en hierdie week se episode lê my besonders na aan die hart. Nie net omdat borsvoeding vir soveel ma’s belangrik én uitdagend is nie, maar ook omdat ons heel eerste gas ooit, Katinka Lategan, weer saamgesels. In haar terugkeer na die mikrofoon deel Katinka, ’n ervare vroedvrou, haar diepgaande kennis oor borsvoeding.
Ons gesels oor die fisiologie daarvan, hoe kolostrum werk, en die hormonale en emosionele skommelinge wat ma’s ná geboorte beleef. Maar veral fokus ons op die waninligting wat steeds versprei word: die leuens wat ma’s laat voel hulle doen iets verkeerd, of nie goed genoeg is nie.
As jy tans borsvoed, oorweeg om te begin, of dalk steeds wonder hoekom dit nie vir jou uitgewerk het nie... hierdie gesprek is vir jóú. Want wanneer jy iets beter verstaan, kan jy met meer selfvertroue besluite neem vir jou, jou baba en julle unieke situasie.
It’s World Breastfeeding Week and this episode is one that’s especially close to my heart. Not just because breastfeeding is such a big and sometimes tough part of motherhood, but also because my very first podcast guest ever, Katinka Lategan, is back behind the mic.
Katinka is an experienced midwife and in this episode she shares her deep knowledge of breastfeeding. We talk about how it actually works, what colostrum is and why it matters, and the emotional and hormonal rollercoaster many moms go through after birth.
But we also zoom in on the myths that still get shared too often. The kind of misinformation that can make a mom doubt herself or feel like she’s doing it all wrong.
If you’re currently breastfeeding, thinking about starting, or still wondering why it didn’t work out for you, this conversation is for you. Because once you really understand how it all works, you can make choices that feel right for you, your baby and your unique situation.

Op 35 is Jean-Marié Stander al deur talle storms: 'n Pad met infertiliteit, IVF, die verlies van haar suster, 'n diagnose van adenomiose en 'n histerektomie. In dié episode gesels Daniëlla met Jean-Marié daaroor, maar ook oor die vreugdes in haar lewe: Om die ma van een kind te wees en hoe draf haar terapie geword het. Dis ’n gesprek oor liggaam en gees, oor aanhou beweeg (letterlik én figuurlik) wanneer jou lewenspad anders verloop as wat jy gedink het. En oor hoekom ons as ma's meer moet praat oor dié dinge wat dikwels verswyg word.
At 35, Jean-Marié Stander has already weathered many storms: a journey with infertility, IVF, the loss of her sister, a diagnosis of adenomyosis, and eventually, a hysterectomy.
In this episode, Daniëlla talks to Jean-Marié about all of that — but also about the joys in her life: being a mom to one child and how running has become her therapy.
It’s a conversation about body and mind, about keeping going (both literally and figuratively) when life doesn’t unfold the way you expected. And about why, as mothers, we need to speak more openly about the things that so often go unspoken.

Om leier van die land se opposisie te wees, was moeilik.
Om 'n ma te word, was moeiliker.
In dié episode gesels Daniëlla met Helen Zille, wat as ystervrou van Suid-Afrikaanse politiek beskou word. Sy vra Zille (74) egter nie uit oor die RNE, verkiesings of selfs die DA* nie - maar eerder oor haar haar reis as ma, ouma, skoonma, en dogter. Helen Zille vertel ons van haar ervaring met nageboorte-depressie, haar eie ma se depressie, die uitdagings van ouerskap, en hoe sy vandag haar verhouding met haar skoondogter benader.
*NS. Zille verklap wél bietjie meer oor haar planne om haarself as burgemeester van Johannesburg verkiesbaar te stel, en die invloed wat haar kleinkinders op daardie besluit het.
Being the Leader of the Opposition was difficult.
Being a mom was even harder.
In this episode, Daniëlla speaks to Helen Zille — often described as the iron lady of South African politics. But this time, Zille (74) doesn’t talk about the GNU, elections, or even the DA* — instead, she reflects on her journey as a mother, grandmother, mother-in-law, and daughter.
She opens up about her experience with postnatal depression, her own mother’s mental health struggles, the challenges of parenthood, and how she approaches her relationship with her daughter-in-law today.
*P.S. Zille does however let us in on one hot political topic — her plans to possibly run for mayor of Johannesburg, and the surprising influence her grandchildren have had on that decision. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com

’n Egskeiding beteken nie noodwendig ’n gebroke kind nie. Maar dit kan seermaak – en daarom moet ouers weet hóé om kinders deur hierdie moeilike tyd te help. In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met gaste Mariaan Prins (opvoedkundige sielkundige) en Marli Lerm ( prokureur) oor hoe egskeiding kinders beïnvloed, watter foute ouers dikwels maak, en waarom ’n ouerskapsplan (parenting plan) en professionele ondersteuning noodsaaklik is.
A divorce doesn’t necessarily mean a broken child. But it can hurt – and that’s why parents need to know how to support their children through this difficult time. In this episode, Daniëlla speaks with guests Mariaan Prins (educational psychologist) and Marli Lerm (attorney) about how divorce affects children, the common mistakes parents make, and why a parenting plan and professional support are essential.

What you’ll hear in this episode:
*When is the flu just the flu – and when is it swine flu?

*Is the new RSV vaccine safe?
*What you really need to know about hand, foot and mouth disease

Wat as ander sê jou kind is ‘n fout? Dat jy eerder moes aborteer het? Dat jy haar moet wegsteek en vergeet?
Dis wat Susette Brynard moes hoor toe haar dogtertjie, Shéri, met Down-sindroom gebore is. Maar sy het gekies om nie te glo wat ander sê nie – sy het gekies om in haar kind te glo.
Vandag is Shéri Brynard (43) ’n internasionale spreker, ’n inspirerende vrou met ’n tersiêre kwalifikasie – en ‘n lig vir almal wat haar pad kruis.
In hierdie inspirerende Moedersdag-episode – ook die eerste aflewering in die #MoedVirMammas-reeks saam met Afrikaans.com – gesels Daniëlla van Heerden met hierdie ongelooflike ma-en-dogter-span oor hoop, deursettingsvermoë, en die krag van 'n ma se geloof.
Ons vier moeders, moedertaal én moed – met ’n storie wat jou siel gaan aanraak én jou moed gee vir jou eie ouerskapreis.

That’s what Susette Brynard was told when her daughter, Shéri, was born with Down syndrome. But she chose not to believe what others said – she chose to believe in her child.
Today, Shéri Brynard (43) is an international speaker, an inspiring woman with a tertiary qualification – and a shining light to everyone she meets.
