    1KHO 544: How to Stop Overthinking and Start Doing | Pat Flynn, Lean Learning
    Jul 25 2025
    In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Pat Flynn, author of Lean Learning, breaks down the art of "learning less to achieve more." He talks about how the traditional path of endless overthinking and consuming information often leads to inaction—and how we can combat this by embracing action, failure, and hands-on learning. With our kids growing up in an age where the pressure to be constantly learning can be overwhelming, Pat shares practical advice on how we can equip them for future careers by teaching them to stop overthinking and start doing. By focusing on real-world experience and learning through action, Pat’s approach can transform how we approach both life and work. Whether it’s finding meaningful careers or navigating life’s changes, Pat’s method helps break the cycle of fear and hesitation, encouraging us to get outside, explore, and develop the skills needed for the future. Tune in to discover how letting go of overthinking can help you—and your kids—thrive in an ever-evolving world.

    1KHO 532: Taking Back the Neighborhood, How Family-First Tech Can Revive Real-World Childhoods| Russell York, COSMO Technologies
    Jul 23 2025
    What if technology didn’t keep kids inside—but actually helped launch them out the front door? In this powerful third conversation with COSMO Technologies CEO Russell York, we explore how family-first tech can help revive real-world childhoods, spark neighborhood friendships, and reconnect parents to peace of mind. With their newest release, the Junior Track 5, COSMO has reimagined GPS-enabled kids' watches to prioritize freedom, safety, and community. Russell shares why helicopter parenting is giving way to “satellite parenting”—a thoughtful model that allows kids to roam while still staying connected. We talk about why Big Tech has failed families, how back-to-school season is the new New Year, and what it takes to make screen-free summers actually work. Whether you’re homeschooling, working full-time, or somewhere in between, this episode offers both a mindset shift and a practical tool for reclaiming childhood in the digital age.

    1KHO 530: Using Herbs to Weave Calm Through Tense Days | Rachelle Robinett
    Jul 21 2025
    Can a single cup of tea shift your entire day? In one of her favorite episodes ever, Ginny sits down with herbalist and author Rachelle Robinett to explore the ancient, globally practiced art of herbalism—and why it might be exactly what our stressed-out, fast-paced culture needs. Rachelle’s book, Naturally: The Herbalist’s Guide to Health and Transformation, offers both a gentle invitation and a practical guide for weaving herbs into everyday life. From nervines and adaptogens to bitters and mushrooms, you’ll learn how plants can support sleep, digestion, resilience, clarity, emotional balance, and so much more. This episode demystifies herbalism and proves that you don’t need a homestead or decades of knowledge to start—you just need a teapot and a few minutes. Ginny shares how reading Naturally finally helped her fall in love with herbal tea (after years of resisting it!) and realize that she was already an herbalist all along. Whether you’re navigating burnout, anxiety, or the desire to reconnect with nature and yourself, this conversation will leave you feeling empowered, expanded, and inspired to take one small step toward well-being.

Together they explore how nature, connection, and curiosity can soothe both kids and caregivers in even the most exhausting moments. Whether your toddler is yelling “no,” breaking down over a cracked granola bar, or sprinting away at lightning speed, this conversation offers science-backed strategies, empathy, and a powerful reminder: this season is short, but it’s shaping both you and your child.

    Jul 18 2025
    What happens when you spend ten years chasing a dream—only to face rejection again and again? Melissa Ferguson did just that. In this hilarious and heartfelt conversation, Melissa shares how she went from writing secretly in a Walmart-adjacent extended stay to becoming a bestselling author with multiple book-to-movie deals. She’s a homesteading mom of four, a romantic comedy writer, and now a children’s book author with Our Friendly Farmhouse, a stunning family-authored picture book rooted in real life. Melissa and Ginny dig into what it means to pursue creativity as a mom, why calculated risks matter, and how to build a life (and a farmhouse) one bold step at a time. From publishing realities to auction-day adrenaline to raising your neighbor's rabbits, this episode is both wildly entertaining and quietly motivating.

    1KHO 527: The Age of the Trophy Child | Carl Honore, Under Pressure
    Jul 17 2025
    Are we raising children—or building résumés? In this powerful episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich sits down with internationally bestselling author Carl Honoré (In Praise of Slowness, Under Pressure) to explore the dark undercurrent of modern parenting: the obsession with performance. From Baby Einstein to Mandarin in the Moses basket, today’s childhood has become a race—and our kids are burning out before they even begin. Honoré calls out the rise of the “trophy child” and reveals how hyper-parenting, micromanagement, and constant comparison are robbing kids of joy, resilience, and identity. Together, Carl and Ginny unpack why slowing down isn’t lazy—it’s revolutionary. If you’ve ever questioned the pressure to do more, be more, and push harder, this episode is your permission slip to opt out. Childhood doesn’t need to be upgraded. It needs to be reclaimed. *** 🔗 Carl Honoré’s Website 📍 All books, TED Talks, digital courses, articles, and media appearances: 👉 https://www.carlhonore.com 📚 Books by Carl Honoré Under Pressure: Rescuing Our Children from the Culture of Hyper-Parenting In Praise of Slowness: Challenging the Cult of Speed Bolder: Making the Most of Our Longer Lives The Slow Fix: Solve Problems, Work Smarter and Live Better in a Fast World Slow Adventures (Children’s Book – U.S. Title) 🎥 TED Talks by Carl Honoré In Praise of Slowness (TEDGlobal) 🎥 Watch: https://www.ted.com/talks/carl_honore_in_praise_of_slowness Why We Should Embrace Aging as an Adventure 🎥 Watch: https://www.ted.com/talks/carl_honore_why_we_should_embrace_aging_as_an_adventure A huge thank you to our sponsors!
