In this episode, we are joined by Todd Rennebohm, a passionate advocate, author, and podcaster who has dedicated his life to improving mental health awareness. After a personal struggle that led him to a 28-day addiction treatment center in 2015, Todd emerged as a formidable voice in mental health advocacy. He has since achieved significant milestones, including organizing impactful rallies, successfully petitioning for the creation of a Minister of Mental Health and Addictions, and penning the acclaimed children's book, "Sometimes Daddy Cries."
Todd's commitment extends into multiple arenas as he has made appearances on TV, radio, and various podcasts, and spoken at a multitude of events, schools, and treatment centers. His efforts were recognized with an invitation to speak at the provincial legislature. Recently diagnosed with ADHD, Todd continues to share his evolving journey, bringing deeper insights into the challenges and triumphs of living with mental health issues.
In addition to his advocacy work, Todd is the host of "Bunny Hugs and Mental Health," a podcast that has aired over 100 episodes and is celebrated as one of Canada's top mental health podcasts. Join us as we delve into Todd’s journey of advocacy, his personal struggles and achievements, and the powerful impact of his work across communities. Todd's story is not only inspiring but also a beacon of hope and a source of practical advice for anyone looking to understand and navigate the complexities of mental health.
