Mother Tongue
Mother Tongue is a podcast about modern motherhood - the ambition, the identity shifts, the invisible load, and the quiet recalibrations that happen behind the scenes.
I’m Maryanne. I’m a mum of three, a founder, and someone who has spent most of her adult life building businesses while raising a family, often at the same time, usually a little exhausted, and always learning as I go. This podcast is where I have the conversations I wish I’d heard earlier - the honest ones about work, money, ambition, relationships, burnout, confidence, health, and what it really means to build a life alongside motherhood, not in spite of it.
Each episode features thoughtful, open conversations with founders, creatives, doctors, experts and women navigating big lives in real time. We talk about the things that don’t always make it into neat soundbites - the trade-offs, the doubts, the moments of clarity, and the decisions that quietly change everything.
Mother Tongue isn’t about doing more or getting it perfect. It’s about feeling less alone, better informed, and more grounded in the choices you’re making - whether you’re building a business, raising children, starting again, or simply trying to make sense of the season you’re in.
New episodes weekly.
Listen in, wherever you are.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today we are speaking to a birth and postpartum doula, hypnobirthing educator, and lactation counsellor based in Dubai. Her work is driven by her personal experiences as a mother, particularly with a high-risk pregnancy involving twins, which led her to become a passionate advocate for supporting families during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She is also involved in community-building efforts, such as "Small and Mighty Babies," which supports parents of premature babies, and she is a founding member of the "Doulas of Dubai". Her services include not only birth support but also postpartum care, helping new mothers adjust to their roles and build confidence in caring for their newborns.
