Ever wondered why you eat when you’re bored, procrastinating, or sad? This week we welcome back exercise psychologist Emma Slade to discuss the topic of non-hungry eating! This is a fascinating discussion about non-hungry eating patterns, where they come from, and some tools we can introduce to help overcome these behaviours when they aren’t serving us positively. 

Bread and Better is hosted by Tegan Padget a qualified personal trainer, sports nutritionist, chef, and owner of the online lifestyle coaching business called Fitty Tegs, and Alex Whittington a freelance feature writer, producer, the owner of Hey Al! Productions, and a mum of three. We aim to not only discuss the issues that affect us as women - but also how the issues we deal with, and how we respond, can affect those we influence - our kids, our nephews and nieces, our siblings, our cousins, our godchildren, our best friend's kids. We are committed to opening a dialogue where we explore generational patterns in the health, movement and mindset space, and make real change.

Join us for part two of this incredibly candid conversation. In the second half of this interview, Tegan guides Alex and Julia through a conversation about their experiences with perinatal depression and Alex’s journey through pregnancy after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. This is a really important conversation and one not to be missed for anyone living with or supporting someone through their mental health and motherhood journey. 

Trigger Warning: We would like to issue a trigger warning for this episode as it addresses sensitive topics related to mental health issues and suicide.

We're back with season 2 of Bread and Better! This week Tegan explores everything related to the dreaded C word - Calories! If you have listened before, you will know that Tegan's approach to nutrition for herself and her clients is very much based on an abundance perspective rather than a restrictive one. Alex also gives a little recap of her trip to Japan and we revisit our favourite segment, the pop culture/nutrition quiz!

TW: We would just like to acknowledge that the topic of calorie counting may need a trigger warning for some people who have struggled with disordered eating in the past, and perhaps this episode may not be a good listen for you.

TW: This episode contains a discussion that references statistics about sexual assault and domestic violence however, there are no graphic details.

For our final episode of Season 1, we have something a little different for you that we know you are going to enjoy just as much! In light of the Barbie movie, and the epic FIFA Women’s World Cup we have prepared a Feminism 101 episode for you. This is for everyone, whether you are new to the concept of feminism or if it is something that you are really passionate about. We cover everything from recent statistics to sexual harassment in Australia. It is a candid, interesting, and important conversation. We hope you’ve loved our first season as much as we have loved making it for you and we can’t wait to be back in your ears on the 9th of October 2023.

This week on Bread and Better we welcome our beautiful friend Ash Williams. Ash is a client of Tegan’s who, despite having two kids under three, manages to prioritise her own nutrition and fitness. Ash is super relatable, honest, and provides insight into some really achievable ways to incorporate fitness into a busy life with toddlers. This week we also have our favourite segment of the season where we quiz each other on a topic the other has absolutely no idea about. It’s a hoot and we hope you can play along at home with us!
