Motherhood and Mental Health Part 2: An Interview with Julia and Alex, From Perinatal Depression To Bipolar Disorder

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. 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 discuss not only 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.Follow us on Instagram @breadandbetterpodcastShow NotesLifeline: https://www.lifeline.org.au or call 13 11 14What is Epigenetic’s: https://www.communityservices.act.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0011/1999235/Epigenetics-how-experiences-influence-our-genes_web.pdfCreditsHosts: Tegan Padget and Alex WhittingtonProducer: Alex WhittingtonOriginal Concept: Tegan PadgetAudio Production: Alex Whittington Hosted on Acast.
