This week on the Bread and Better podcast, we’re discussing personal development and why it can be a bit off-putting for some, including Alex herself. We’re breaking down what personal development really means and why it's more than just "woo woo" stuff—it's about making life better by becoming the best version of yourself. Tegan shares insights on how choosing yourself first can positively impact everyone around you and dives into both the scientific and spiritual sides of self-improvement, like the law of attraction and the brain’s reticular activating system. She’s also discussing the power of gratitude and goal setting, sharing practical tips and personal stories. By the end of the episode, Tegan hopes to show that personal development is for everyone, even those who think it’s not their thing... like Alex!
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.
