'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon

Alle ouers wil die beste vir hul kinders hê... maar soms plaas ons, sonder dat ons dit besef, druk op hulle wat meer skade as goed doen. Wanneer sport, kultuur en akademie oorweldigend begin voel, hoe help ons kinders om hul potensiaal te bereik sonder om hul vreugde en selfvertroue te verloor? In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met opvoedkundige sielkundige Hennie Vorster oor hoe ouers balans kan vind tussen motivering en druk. Ons praat oor hoe om kinders emosioneel te ondersteun, hoe om hul eie angs en selfdruk te help bestuur, en hoe mededinging in vandag se samelewing kinders se welstand beïnvloed.

All parents want the best for their children… but sometimes, without realizing it, we place pressure on them that does more harm than good.
When sport, cultural activities, and academics start to feel overwhelming, how do we help our children reach their potential without losing their joy and self-confidence?
In this episode, Daniëlla talks with educational psychologist Hennie Vorster about how parents can find the balance between motivation and pressure. We discuss how to support children emotionally, how to help them manage their own anxiety and self-imposed pressure, and how competition in today’s society affects children’s well-being.

Aktrise Donnalee Roberts is ook as skrywer en vervaardiger betrokke by die treffer-familiereeks Een Keer Om die Son, waarvan die tweede reeks tans op kykNET te sien is.
Maar terwyl sy op die skerm ’n geskeide vrou vertolk wat nié kinders wil hê nie, lyk die realiteit by haar eie huis heel anders: Sy's getroud met Ivan Botha (ook in die vermaakbedryf), ma van twee besige voorskoolse seuntjies, én bonusma van ’n tienerdogter.
Haar huis is vol, dit is besig – en dit is alles waarvan sy nog ooit gedroom het.
Donnalee en Daniëlla gesels oor die balanseertoertjies wat werkende ma’s daagliks aanpak, die dinamika van verskillende geslagte onder een dak, en sy deel ook wat sy by haar eie ma geleer het.

Actress Donnalee Roberts is also involved as a writer and producer on the hit family series Een Keer Om die Son, with the second season currently airing on kykNET.
But while she portrays a divorced woman who does not want children on screen , the reality at home looks very different: She is married to Ivan (also in the entertainment industry), mom to two busy preschool boys, and bonus mom to a teenage daughter.
Her home is full, it’s busy – and it’s everything she has ever dreamed of.
Donnalee and Daniëlla chat about the balancing acts working moms perform every day, the dynamics of different generations living under one roof, and she also shares what she learned from her own mother.

en Afrikaans grootmaak”

Sy het meer as 100 000 getroue volgelinge op TikTok -en met goeie rede: SaffaMamma is eerlik, eg, onopgesmuk en bitter snaaks!
Vandag kuier sy saam met Daniëlla agter die mikrofoon. Ons gesels oor babas kry tydens lockdown, oor die isolasie daarna, en oor die terugkeer huis toe ná jare oorsee. Ons lag oor die lekker van Suid-Afrika en Afrikaans-wees, en praat ’n bietjie dieper oor “gentle parenting” en om ons eie ouerskaproete oop te kerf — terwyl ons steeds koester wat ons by ons eie ma’s geleer het.
Die ideale manier om 2025 af te sluit. Maak ’n koppie tee en kom kuier saam!

She has more than 100,000 loyal followers on TikTok - and with good reason: SaffaMamma is honest, real, unfiltered... and hilarious!
Today she joins Daniella behind the microphone. We talk about having babies during lockdown, the isolation that followed, and returning home after years abroad. We laugh about the joys of being South African and Afrikaans, and dive a little deeper into gentle parenting and carving out our own parenting path — while still cherishing what we learned from our own mothers.
The perfect way to close off 2025. Make yourself a cup of tea and come join the conversation! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com

Hoe gemaak as 'n hoofstroomskool nie vir jou kind werk nie? Of as jy bloot jou kinders tuis by jou wil hê? Janet Kieswetter het die tuisskoolpad saam met haar vyf dogters gestap, en help nou ook ander ouers wat dit wil doen deur haar platform "Kieswetter Klaskamer".
Tuisskool is nie vir almal nie, en dit hoef ook nie te wees nie.
Maar elke ouer wat al kopgekrap het wanneer hulle moet help met huiswerk, of 'n kind het wat "anders" werk as sy of haar klasmaats, kan leer by dié ma en haar gesin.

What do you do when mainstream schooling just doesn’t work for your child - or when you simply want your kids at home with you? Janet Kieswetter has walked the homeschooling journey with her five daughters and now helps other parents who want to do the same through her platform, Kieswetter Klaskamer.
Homeschooling isn’t for everyone - and it doesn’t have to be.
But any parent who has ever scratched their head over homework or has a child who learns “differently” from their classmates will find something valuable in this mom and her family’s story.

Dit het heel onskuldig begin toe Carli van Aswegen (15) “fitfluencers” en “foodies” op sosiale media begin volg het. Maar kort voor lank was Carli obsessief oor kos, haar gewig en wat sy eet. Sy het, byna ongemerk, ’n eetsteurnis ontwikkel – een wat glad nie lyk soos die “tipiese” anoreksie of bulimie nie.
In hierdie episode gesels Daniëlla met Carli, haar ma Nantie, asook dokter Reza Gouws, oor iets waarmee baie jongmense in stilte sukkel: eetsteurnisse, liggaamsbeeld en “food noise”.

It all started quite innocently when Carli van Aswegen (15) began following “fitfluencers” and “foodies” on social media. But before long, Carli became obsessed with food, her weight, and what she was eating. Almost without noticing, she developed an eating disorder – one that looks nothing like the “typical” anorexia or bulimia.
In this episode, Daniëlla speaks with Carli, her mom Nantie, and Dr. Reza Gouws about something many young people silently struggle with: eating disorders, body image, and “food noise.”
