Mevrou is in ’n onverwagse nostalgie vas gevang, aangebring deur die pers blommetjies van die Jakaranda bome in Pretoria. Skielik onthou Dianne Broodryk weer haar grootword jare in die Moot gebied, toe sy met haar fiets oor die Jakaranda blommetjies gery het. Vir Gerda de Sousa bring die asembrowende pers tapyt op die strate van Brooklyn weer al die herinneringe terug van haar seun in die hoërskool. En voor hulle dit kan keer, is die Mevrouens in ’n nostalgiese bui …… Podcast page on Jacaranda FM's website

What happens when your first heartbreak is your mother?

In this deeply personal episode, author and coach Moshitadi Lehlomela joins Nozibele Qamngana-Mayaba to talk about the quiet pain many people carry --the mother wound.

Moshitadi shares how she first recognised her own wound at university, when anxiety and depression began to surface.

“I realised that I had a mother wound in varsity,” she says. “I felt alone. I felt defective.”

Nozi opens up with empathy and honesty, creating a safe space for a conversation about pain, forgiveness, and self-discovery. Together, they unpack how childhood wounds resurface in adulthood, how to unlearn toxic patterns, and what it means to mother yourself with compassion.

“You’ve already done great work so far,” Moshitadi reminds listeners. “Maybe the coping mechanisms you developed are not healthy, but you’ve been doing your best trying to protect yourself.”

This conversation is about healing, identity, and finding peace -- even when the love that shaped you also left a scar.

She’s the author of The Girl Who Survived Her Mother and Healing the Mother Wound, and through her work she guides others toward self-love, emotional freedom, and breaking generational patterns.

Mevrou is nou siek en sat vir siekwees! Die winter is verby, die somer is in volle swang, en die twee wonder waar die skielike siektes vandaan kom wat hulle ook plat getrek het. Dit was so erg dat Gerda de Sousa en Dianne Broodryk altwee in die bed moes bly met anti-biotika en ’n bak vol ander medisyn – iets waaraan dié twee nie gewoond is nie. Nou voel dit of die hele wêreld om hulle ook siek word met ’n gehoes en ’n geproes en ’n gesoek na genoeg sneesdoekies ….. Podcast page on Jacaranda FM's website

Mevrou het haar voet neergesit en finaal besluit om die stryd teen die strykyster aan te pak – maar sy dink sy het verloor. Gerda de Sousa se oorlog het begin toe sy begin navorsing doen het oor hoe om die onderkant van haar stryk yster skoon te maak. Dianne Broodryk blaas stoom-af oor die onthulling wat sy gemaak het toe sy die buite kussings wou skoon kry. Die Mevrouens reken hulle het 'n duidelike teken gekry dat hulle eerder net nie moet skoonmaak nie.... Podcast page on Jacaranda FM's website
