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’re joined by Beth Clay, founder of Finance Her Well, to talk about something many of us think about often but don’t always talk about openly - money.
From the psychology behind our relationship with money to why so many women feel stress or shame around finances, this conversation explores how our experiences shape the way we earn, save, spend and invest.
Beth also shares simple ways to start building financial confidence and making your money work for you - whether you're navigating finances in a relationship, thinking about investing, or simply trying to feel more in control of your financial future. We also talk about motherhood, investing, financial independence, and the importance of having open conversations about money within relationships.
If money has ever felt overwhelming, emotional, or confusing, this episode will help you start looking at it in a completely different way.
