Osher Günsberg: How Sobriety Saved My Life

Osher is quite simply, one of the most recognisable faces…and voices…in Australia.

From his early days on Channel V to hosting The Batchelor and The Bachelorette - Osher has been the face of Australia'a biggest TV shows for over 20 years.

More importantly, for the sake of our podcast - Hamish was lucky enough to sit down with Osher on the day he celebrated his 14 year soberversary.

When we talk about 'doing the work' - not many have done quite as much as Osher.

Osher is a man who has turned his complex mental health issues into his greatest strengths. Social anxiety, depression, PTSD, psychotic episodes and suicidal ideations are just some of the challenges that he has overcome.

And he sites his sobriety as being the key factor that enabled him not only to survive but to thrive amongst all this.

The man that I met is one who has lived a life but continues to smile and share his story with humour!

I would encourage you to listen to this episode with a pen in your hand because there are more nuggets of wisdom in this single conversation, than Hame and Vic have managed in over 100 episodes!

Enjoy!
