Better Than Yesterday with Osher Günsberg

Who is ruling whom? Are we in charge, or are our phones? Osher was in a Pilates class and the lady on the mat next to him spent most of the class checking her smart watch.

‌

There is so much scientific research that proves that the notifications on our phones are affecting our brains, our lives and how we connect with other people.

‌

We can get control back of our lives, by changing how we interact with our phones. Osher discusses how we can live better lives without notifications.

Reflecting on Jelena Dokic’s episode, in this episode Osher explores the relationship between resilience and vulnerability.

Vulnerability without resilience is dangerous. If you’re vulnerable without the strength to cope, you’re wide open to calamity.

Like being immunocompromised next to someone coughing—you’re incredibly susceptible to harm.

On the flip side, if you’re resilient without being vulnerable, your relationships, creativity, and ability to connect with others suffer.

Vulnerability shows how susceptible you are to danger or stress, while resilience is your ability to recover from it. The good news is, resilience is something we can build and develop, and in this episode, Osher offer up a few key ways to develop that skill.

We have come a long way. Ten years ago when this podcast began, would we as a society have been ready to hear Jelena Dokic’s story?

Australia watched and cheered as Jelena Dokic dominated international tennis. From the outside it seemed as though Jelena had everything. But behind the scenes, a lot more was going on. There were clues, but the media and society at the time made a joke of them.

Jelena Dokic has revealed her truth in her new book ‘Fearless’. Jelena is honest, open and has begun a conversation that will help all of us to break stigmas, own our stories and keep going.

Content warning: this conversation contains mention of suicide, abuse and trauma.

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.

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”.

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 book “Love language” and an award-winning documentary podcast “Tough Love”.

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.

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.
