In 2021 I was joined by Layne Beachley, the most successful female surfer in history.
In this episode of Better Make it Quick, Layne and I talk about how she used exposure therapy whilst surfing the big ways to get rid of her fear, her marriage to INXS band member Kirk Pengilly and the illusion that follows females in competitive surfing.

Have you ever gone through an intersection while driving tired late at night and only when it was behind you did the explosion of adrenaline alert you to the fact that you almost had an accident?      In this episode Osher tells a tale of running through a massive stop sign while he was still drinking and using, describes the wreckage that followed, and the repair work that needed to happen (and continues to this day)      Perhaps this story will help you recognise a stop sign you’ve missed in your own life, or help understand why the person you’ve been trying to send a warning sign to might not be listening.

The day my ego and arrogance  got caught with a rusty hook

After Linda Marigliano’s episode on Wednesday, Osher was on a mission to recapture that wonderful feeling of a first kiss.      Using something his shrink taught him years ago, Osher explains how to increase the release of the ‘love hormone’ oxytocin when kissing to the point you’ll be singing that song “feels like the first time”.

We only get one chance to kiss someone for the first time, yet here is a way to recreate that marvellous moment every day

Everyone has a story about how we were affected by the Covid Pandemic. In this episode, Osher speaks with broadcaster and DJ Linda Marigliano about being stuck in Australia, away from the man she fell in love with and not knowing if they’d ever make it.      This all happened while she grappled not only her own fertility journey, but working around a life-long tendency to be a people pleaser.      Linda’s has a new book “Love language” and an award-winning documentary podcast “tough love”.

People pleasing, Pandemics, and the most wonderful love story you’ve heard in ages (w/Linda Marigliano)

We generally avoid thinking about losing the things we love, but what if deliberately doing so made us love and appreciate those things even more?      In this episode, Osher explores the idea of “The Last Time” (*not the Farnham farewell tour).      With its roots in ancient Stoic practice, “The Last Time” only takes a few breaths to do yet can have a profound effect on the presence and meaning we feel in our day.      It even makes Osher’s wife say “why are you being so weird?” when he sees her again after doing this, which he finds incredibly amusing.    ‌  ‌   For every episode ever, to get on the mailing list or to get in touch, go to Better Than Yesterday: Osher Günsberg      If you want to you can drop G a DM here      Watch full guest episodes on YouTube here

...and this will be the last time that ever happens. Finding joy and meaning by deliberatedly thinking about losing everything

This week, Osher lost two jobs in one day when news broke that The Bachelor Australia and The Masked Singer Australia aren’t being renewed by the network.  What’s hilarious is that it’s not the first time this has happened to him, and in today’s episode he talks about the work he did around this news going public to ensure a stable transition of not only income but also mental health.  If you’ve ever lost a job, or you’ve never thought about what would happen if you lost your current job, this episode offers some powerful insights and tools that may be of help.  Osher refers to episode 80 with John Ferriter, you can listen to it here.
