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!

Hormones, functional health, and perimenopause with Roshani Hill
Today on the Mother Tongue podcast, we're diving into a topic that so many of us have questions about—but don’t always know where to begin: hormones, functional health, and the wild ride that is perimenopause.
Joining me is the brilliant Roshani Hill, founder of Vital Woman Wellness here in Dubai. Roshani is a certified functional health practitioner who specialises in supporting women through all stages of hormonal change—from PMS and burnout to fertility, perimenopause, and beyond.
In this conversation, we unpack what perimenopause really is (hint: it’s not just hot flashes and mood swings), the signs your body might be giving you, and the steps you can take to feel more like yourself again—without being dismissed or told it’s all in your head.
Whether you’re in your 30s and starting to notice subtle shifts or firmly in the throes of hormonal havoc, this episode is here to empower you with practical insights and real talk.
