Better Than Yesterday with Osher Günsberg

Sometimes it can feel like everything is out of our control - that things happen to us rather than for us or with us. But what if instead of fearing change, we could know that we were ready for it, and that we could harness it deliberately to steer us toward the life we want? This is exactly what this chat between Osher and Andrea Clarke will help you do. Andrea is a work futurist, speaker and author of two books: 'Futurefit: how to stay relevant and competitive in the future of work', and her latest 'Adapt: mastering change in four steps' Here, through practical tips and tools and in the example of her own remarkable career, Andrea show us how to look for signals that change is coming (or needs to come), how we can have agency no matter what life throws at us and the possibilities being adaptable opens for us.

There’s two kinds of people when it comes to holidays.Those who are more than happy to spend two straight weeks napping by the pool, and those who struggle with suddenly not having something to do.Osher is most definitely in the latter cohort.In this episode he shares how over time, he’s had to learn a lot about what to do when he’s not working. Mostly because when he goes too hard in either direction (work or play) - it’s not a good time for me or anyone.::Subscribe to Osher’s Substack here: https://oshergunsberg.substack.com/Join Osher and guests for the next live show - Story Club at The Sydney Comedy Festival - tickets at storyclublive.comMay 11 The Comedy Store, Sydney.

This episode was recorded live at SXSW 2024 - and it might be a very different example of what a politician sounds like from what you've been hearing recently. Here, Allegra not only reveals to Osher and an eager crowd the realities of political life in Canberra, the best and worst things about the job and why some other politicians are focused on the wrong things, but also the importance of empathy, having hard conversations, how she personally stays mentally strong and how we can focus more on people to find solutions.  Special thanks to Wolfgang Günsberg for help with the intro and outro of this episode.

Like many, Dr Billy Garvey recently watched the limited series 'Adolescence'. However, unlike many, as one of the country's leading voices on childhood development and mental health, he is able to offer some crucial insights into the issues the program presents, the solutions we must all be a part of, as well as what he wished the program showed... But before that, Dr Garvey shares with Osher some research-backed insights into parenting more broadly, as well as practical tools for calming and connecting with your kids.

You think you and your siblings are close? Michael and Andrew Tierney haven't just shared their lives as brothers together, but for 36 years and counting, they've shared songs, spot-lit stages and the story of one of Australia's biggest musical acts and exports: Human Nature. And they've managed to do it in harmony - both musically and non-musically.   In this conversation with Osher, they look back on this incredible journey and ahead to the music they are now making together under the Tierney Brothers name. They talk about everything that's changed in their lives and the industry - including tensions in the band, Andrew's sobriety, living and working in Las Vegas - and everything that's stayed the same, like their undying love of performance. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
