Osher Günsburg

For over 20 years, Osher Günsberg has been a prolific host and Australian TV personality, having worked on shows from Australian Idol to The Masked Singer – but this hasn’t stopped him from having candid conversations around his own mental health. His book ‘Back After the Break’ and award-winning documentary ‘Osher Günsberg: A Matter of Life and Death’ both break the stigma on talking about mental ill health, addiction and sobriety, and suicide.

From 2016-2019 Osher served on the board of SANE Australia, and regularly speaks on his mental health journey, mental health in the workplace, and addiction. His podcast ‘Better Than Yesterday’, with the tagline to make every day better than yesterday, has over 10 million downloads.
