  • 1KHO 555: Raise The Kid In Front Of You | Ian Morgan Cron, The Road Back To You
    2025/08/22
    What if the key to parenting isn’t molding your child into a smaller version of you—but learning to truly see them for who they are? In this deeply moving conversation, Ian Morgan Cron, bestselling author of The Road Back To You, returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to talk about the Enneagram, emotional self-awareness, and how these insights transform the way we parent, love, and lead. Ian shares how understanding the “shadow side” of our personalities can unlock healthier relationships, save marriages, and most importantly, help us raise children with compassion rather than control. From hilarious stories about streaking in high school to powerful reflections on his mother’s larger-than-life presence, Ian’s wisdom is as entertaining as it is practical. Together we explore how to pay attention, set boundaries, and embrace the unique wiring of the kids right in front of us. This is a conversation that will leave you laughing, reflecting, and rethinking what it really means to raise emotionally healthy kids in today’s world.

  • 1KHO 553: How to Break Free from the Era of Ankle-Monitored Childhood | Lenore Skenazy, Free Range Kids
    2025/08/20
    What happens when an entire generation grows up micromanaged, chauffeured, and monitored as if childhood itself were a dangerous crime? In one of the most eye-opening and hilarious episodes of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Lenore Skenazy — author of Free-Range Kids and co-founder of Let Grow — joins Ginny Yurich to expose the absurdity of today’s fear-based parenting culture. With razor-sharp wit and decades of cultural insight, she dismantles the myths that keep parents locked in anxiety and kids locked out of real life. From Halloween candy scares to daycare workers logging every bathroom break, Lenore reveals how fear has crept into every corner of childhood — and why it’s robbing our kids of resilience, joy, and independence. But this isn’t just cultural critique — it’s a blueprint for freedom. Lenore shares why worrying is just a false form of control, why exposure to reality (not more rules) is the cure for parental anxiety, and why unstructured play may be the most important “classroom” of all. Packed with humor, wisdom, and unforgettable one-liners, this conversation challenges parents to step out of the fear stew and give their kids back what they’re desperate for: agency, trust, and the chance to grow. If you’ve ever felt torn between protecting your kids and preparing them for the real world, this episode is your wake-up call — and possibly the permission slip you’ve been waiting for.

  • 1KHO 552: Why Sick Soil Means Sick People (And How to Fix Both) | David Montgomery and Anne Bikle, What Your Food Ate
    2025/08/19
    What if the key to reclaiming our health isn’t in a pill bottle, but beneath our feet? In this thought-provoking conversation, Ginny Yurich sits down with David Montgomery and Anne Biklé—renowned authors of The Hidden Half of Nature and What Your Food Ate—to uncover the forgotten connection between soil, farming, and human well-being. Together they reveal why most farmland is “sick,” why pesticides often create more pests instead of fewer, and how earthworms, microbiomes, and even flavor itself hold the blueprint for restoring vitality to our food and our bodies. This episode isn’t just about farming—it’s about us. From the hidden costs of hydroponics to the way ultra-processed foods hijack our natural “body wisdom,” Montgomery and Biklé show how what we eat is inseparably tied to how it was grown. Their message is both sobering and hopeful: if we change the way we treat the land, we can change the way we feel. Packed with science, story, and practical solutions, this conversation will change the way you see every bite of food—and remind you that giving nature even half a chance changes everything.

  • 1KHO 551: The Science of Happiness Every Parent Needs to Hear | Arthur Brooks, The Happiness Files
    2025/08/18
    What if everything you’ve been taught about success, work, and happiness is incomplete? In this powerful conversation, Harvard professor and bestselling author Arthur Brooks joins Ginny Yurich on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to share the science of happiness—and why every parent needs to hear it. With warmth, humor, and groundbreaking research, Brooks reveals why retirement shouldn’t be the goal, why conflict in families is a sign of abundant love, and why your kids are shaped far more by what they see you do than by what you say. His insights on the four pillars of happiness—faith, family, friendship, and work—will challenge cultural myths and leave you rethinking the way you parent and the way you live. From the dignity of work to the difference between “deal” friends and “real” friends, Brooks offers a blueprint for building a life of deeper meaning. You’ll hear surprising truths about money (hint: buying experiences beats buying stuff), why falling in love is the most entrepreneurial act you’ll ever take, and how beauty and nature reawaken parts of our brain that modern life neglects. If you’ve ever wondered how to raise kids who thrive—and how to find more joy yourself—this episode is full of practical wisdom and hope.

  • 1KHO 549: The Hidden Skills Behind School Readiness | Allison Mell, Tots on Target
    2025/08/14
    Most people think school readiness means knowing letters, numbers, and how to sit still—but what if those are the outcomes, not the foundations? In this powerful episode, pediatric physical therapist and founder of Tots on Target, Dr. Allison Mell, reveals the “hidden” developmental milestones that set kids up for academic and social success—things like crawling, balance, crossing the midline, and even clapping games. These early motor and sensory experiences—often displaced by screens—are how the body feeds the brain. When kids skip them, it shows up in surprising ways: struggling with handwriting, falling out of chairs, or bouncing off friends in circle time. Allison and Ginny explore why these physical milestones matter so deeply and what parents can do—at any age—to help kids thrive. You'll leave this episode with practical strategies, renewed confidence, and a deeper understanding of how movement builds strong, capable learners. Whether your child is just learning to crawl or heading into middle school, this conversation is your blueprint for supporting natural development in a world that’s rushing childhood. 🔗 TotSpot Membership 🔗 Tots on Target Blog 🔗 Follow Allison on Instagram A huge thank you to our sponsors!
