Max Bidstrup Opens Up About Grief, PTSD & His Relationship
Today on Reroot, we’re getting to the root of our good friend Max Bidstrup. You may know Max from his YouTube channel, Max and Occy, where he documents the ups and downs of building his dream property in Australia. In this episode, Max reflects on his time as a paramedic, sharing stories of delivering babies and even saving sheep! We also dive deep into our personal experiences with grief after the sudden loss of our friend Lee, the isolation that comes with content creation, whether kids are on the horizon for Max, why he keeps his relationship private, and more.
Please note: This episode covers sensitive topics, including mental health, suicide, and PTSD, which may be triggering for some listeners.
