When's the last time you ask why you do what you do?  From work to working out, Osher has had many reasons and motivations in the course of his life.

Why a higher power gives us power, even when it's got nothing to do with God

Turning to some kind of higher power is a key component in many addiction recovery programs. And, as discussed in Osher's recent chat to 360, there's a good reason for that: it helps.  But why? What does a high power even look like outside of religion? And how can this idea help us in our lives even outside of addiction?  For more ideas like this, check out Osher's new book 'So What, Now What?'

Redemption, Reinvention and the Realities of Addiction, with 360

Matt Colwell, better known by his stage name 360, is not the person he was. In this raw and personal conversation, he takes Osher through his full journey - from the romanticised partying rockstar, to self described 'total junkie', to rehab, reset, recovery and reinvention. He outlines the tricks his ego played to keep him in the grips of addiction, how small actions were crucial in transforming his body and mind, the tools he now uses to get by and perform in sobriety and finally how he found faith, and exactly what that gives him. 360's new album, Out of the Blue, is out now National tour underway now.

Creating a Better Life, with Campbell Walker (aka Struthless)

Cam Walker isn't here to tell about 'one weird trick that will 10x your life.' He's not even trying to inspire you. But he does know firsthand what it's like to be lost in the depth of feelings of doom, and exactly what helped him slowly reach a place a bit more colourful. That's the basis for his new book 'Doom and Bloom: The case for creativity in a world hooked on panic.' In this chat, he tells Osher all about it, plus his learnings on being more creative, how creativity has been essential in his life, why a lot of self-help isn't actually helpful, how he navigates the common compulsion of social media, the secrets to a long-lasting relationship and why attention can be life or death. Check out 'Doom and Bloom' here Check out Struthless on youtube and instagram Pre-order Osher's new book 'So What, Now What?'

What to Do when You Feel ‘Stuck’ in Life, with Dr Emily Musgrove

Caged by Belief, Freed by Truth, with Tim Pocock

You might know actor Tim Pocock from his roles in Dance Academy or X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Even as a child, he graced the Sydney Opera House starring in operas directed by Baz Lurhman.  But that world of artistic expression was in stark contrast to the other world Tim was part of for so long - one of repression by conservative catholicism under Opus Dei - made all the worse as he began to realise who he truly was. In this chat, Tim reveals his experiences of shame, bullying and conversion therapy, as well as his journey toward healing, discovery and self-acceptance, and the ongoing work of undoing the trauma of the beliefs that kept him feeling trapped for so long.  An inspiration for anyone who’s ever felt silenced or lived an inauthentic life, an insight into certain pockets of religious institutions and a vital plea for the parents of every LGBTIAQ+ child. Check out Tim's book, the Truth Will Set You Free: Growing up Gay Under Opus Dei Pre-order Osher's book 'So What, Now What?' Story Club is Sunday July 6th!
