What Putting Yourself Out There Gives Ba...

Osher Günsberg
About this episode

What do you get from giving something new a try? For sisters Eliza and Liberty Paschke, the answer is an entirely new life. From being self confessed 'spinsters' in their mid 30s (but don't get Osher started on that word), to throwing themselves into reality reno show 'The Block' despite having no reno-experience; Eliza and Liberty have made extending themselves, getting uncomfortable and giving as many things a go as they can their life's work, openly sharing their feelings about what they encounter in their own podcast 'Try Before You Die'.

In this chat, they cover: 

  • What kept them from 'truly living' before the Block
  • The link between self-improvement and trying new things, and how it goes both ways
  • The things they've overcome and what they still hope to work on - and how Osher might help?

Osher's new book So What, Now What? is out now
Osher's first book Back After the Break is out AGAIN now!
