Mother Tongue
Hello and welcome back to Mother Tongue! A podcast and social media community bringing together mums from around the world to connect over their experiences of motherhood.
Now boasting a successful website, audiobook and strong social following, it all started with a podcast in 2020. A British expat living in the UAE, I started the brand all over a coffee with friends sat at her house, discussing the trials and tribulations of being a mum. The idea was to provide companionship for a generation of new mothers who are expected to do it all.
With the help of the many experts and mothers I have spoken to over the last three years, we have taken listeners along on our own journey into motherhood and beyond.
Now heading into its 13th season, Mother Tongue continues to grow and help women around the world.
Thanks for tuning in!

Known as one of the region’s leading home furnishing retailers, IKEA has unveiled six essential solutions for a good night’s sleep, based on an in-depth sleep study that took place this year. To enhance air quality, the FÖRNUFTIG air purifier is equipped with a particle filter and an optional gas filter, effectively removing odours, pollen, and pollutants such as dust, smoke, and chemicals. For comfort, the VALEVÅG mattress offers firm support with individual pocket springs and comfort zones, ensuring an even distribution of body weight whilst sound is addressed with the VAPPEBY speaker lamp, perfect for creating a relaxing. To help children feel secure at bedtime, the TÖVÄDER night light provides a soothing glow in five different colours. Finally, the NATTJASMIN duvet cover set, made from a soft cotton/lyocell blend, helps regulate temperature for a comfortable night’s rest. Together, these solutions demonstrate Al-Futtaim IKEA’s commitment to improving sleep quality across the region.
