This week on Bread and Better, Alex is sharing her personal story of living with bipolar disorder. We will be discussing everything from how she first found out about her diagnosis to the different symptoms she has experienced, such as night terrors, depression, and manic episodes. This is a very vulnerable conversation for both Alex and Tegan, and we hope to help break down some of the stigma surrounding bipolar disorder.

Content Warning: This episode of Bread and Better includes a discussion of bipolar disorder, which may be triggering for some listeners as it also mentions suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling please visit @lifelineaustralia.

This week on Bread and Better Tegan is discussing a number of ways you can have a positive impact on your child’s relationship with food from considering the language we use around what we eat to educating them on nutrition to tangible tips you can use in the kitchen and so much more. This episode is packed with fantastic advice that's incredibly valuable, whether you're a parent or not.

"As a parent myself, this episode easily tops my list, and even after nearly a year of working with Tegan, I'm amazed by how much I've learned! I can't stress enough how essential this episode is for anyone—whether you're a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent, or simply someone who wants to improve their own relationship with food." - Alex
