    1KHO 524: Durable Trades in a Brittle World | Rory Groves, The Family Economy
    Jul 14 2025
    What happens when the work we do no longer serves our families—but separates them? In this thought-provoking and deeply resonant episode, Ginny Yurich sits down with Rory Groves, author of Durable Trades and The Family Economy, to uncover why modern life feels so unstable—and what we can do about it. From brittle supply chains to generational fragmentation, Rory exposes how the very systems we were told to rely on are now cracking under pressure. But there is another way. One that’s slower, older, and surprisingly resilient: the family economy. Whether you're a parent, homeschooler, or simply someone who senses something is off, this conversation will reframe how you think about work, legacy, education, and security. Rory shares how starting with a single tomato plant led him to a life of greater connection and purpose—and how you can begin reclaiming stability right where you are.

    1KHO 523: From Couch, to Garden, to Whole Foods and a Whole New Life Down 160 Pounds | Helene Leeds and Penelope Popken, Step It Up
    Jul 11 2025
    Helene Leeds and Penelope Popkin are living proof that transformation doesn’t come in a pill, a quick fix, or a viral trend—it grows slowly, like a garden. In this powerful episode, mother and daughter share their deeply personal journey through food addiction, depression, emotional healing, and ultimately, 160 pounds of natural weight loss. When every expert said to stay quiet, Helene refused. When Penelope was told she was “fine,” she knew she wasn’t. Together, they rejected the status quo and rebuilt their health, their relationship, and their lives—one home-cooked meal, one walk, one day at a time. You’ll hear how outdoor time, homeschooling, gardening, and unplugging from toxic influences became the unlikely foundation for radical healing. This is not a story about diets—it’s about reclaiming freedom. It's about moms modeling something different. And it’s about the power of doing hard things, together. 🔗 Learn more and join their program: stepitupwithus.com 📺 YouTube: Step It Up With Us Active Skin Repair: Visit www.ActiveSkinRepair.com to learn more about Active Skin Repair and their commitment to 1% for the planet and use code: 1000hours to save 20% on all Active Skin Repair products Select Quote: Head to www.selectquote.com/1000hours to learn more.

    1KHO 521: Nature is an Essential Part of Childhood | Linda McGurk, Rain or Shine Mamma
    Jul 9 2025
    What if we've misunderstood what children really need? In this powerful fourth appearance, Linda McGurk—Swedish-American journalist and bestselling author of There’s No Such Thing As Bad Weather and The Open-Air Life—joins Ginny Yurich to remind us of a fundamental truth: nature is not a luxury or a seasonal activity—it is essential to childhood itself. Drawing from her Scandinavian upbringing and years of raising kids in both the U.S. and Sweden, Linda shares why outdoor play in all weather builds resilience, grit, and lifelong joy. From toddlers in rain puddles to teens hiking in storms, she makes a compelling case that getting outside every day isn't just nice—it's necessary. Together, Ginny and Linda dive into cultural contrasts, educational pressures, and why families in the U.S. often feel isolated in their efforts to raise nature-connected kids. They talk about building small communities of outdoor families, advocating for longer recess, and modeling an adventurous spirit—especially as mothers. Whether you're overwhelmed by busy schedules, worried about bad weather, or unsure how to begin, this episode offers simple shifts with lifelong impact. You'll walk away inspired to embrace discomfort, chase puddles, and pass down the quiet wisdom of a childhood spent outdoors. 📚 There’s No Such Thing As Bad Weather → https://amzn.to/3RrAeQo 📚 The Open-Air Life → https://amzn.to/3Rp3z7c 🌿 Learn more about Linda → https://rainorshinemamma.com A huge thank you to our sponsors!

    1KHO 520: Learning That’s Tethered to Real Life | Morgan and Hudson Wild, Off the Couch and Into Creation
    Jul 8 2025
    What if the most lasting lessons your kids learn didn’t come from a textbook—but from a creek bed, a moth wing, or a flashlight beam sweeping across the night? In this powerful and joy-filled episode, Ginny Yurich welcomes Hudson and Morgan Wild—two of the beloved Wild Brothers—for a conversation that’s deeply affirming for parents who want more than a screen-based childhood for their kids. The Wild Brothers share how growing up in the jungles of Indonesia shaped their imaginations, values, and creative spirit, and how those early days laid the foundation for their family-run streaming platform and their latest endeavor: a groundbreaking homeschool curriculum. Together, 1000 Hours Outside and the Wild Brothers have launched Off the Couch and Into Creation—an eight-week curriculum that equips families to rediscover adventure, connection, and hands-on learning right in their own backyards. This episode will reawaken your sense of wonder, affirm your efforts to raise kids differently, and remind you that you don’t have to be on the far side of the world to raise explorers.

    1KHO 519: How to Avoid Interrupted Potential, Stunted Development, and Stimulation Dependence | Dr. Nicholas Kardaras and Andrew Laubacher
    Jul 7 2025
    We’re watching it happen in real time: children who are overstimulated, underdeveloped, and cut off from the real-world experiences that shape a full, vibrant life. In this groundbreaking conversation, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras—addiction expert and bestselling author of Glow Kids—returns to the podcast alongside Andrew Laubacher, executive director of Humanality. Together, they expose the modern epidemic of screen dependence, explore its spiritual and neurological toll, and explain why childhood itself is being disrupted at the deepest levels. But this isn’t just a diagnosis—it’s a roadmap out. Andrew shares his journey of trading viral fame for a flip phone and true freedom, and how Humanality is helping young adults and families reclaim creativity, community, and resilience. Dr. Kardaras offers a stark warning about AI, influencer culture, and tech's sedative effect on society—but also gives hope that we can still turn the tide. If you’ve ever wondered whether we’re doing enough to protect our kids, this episode will shake you—and empower you. ** Books mentioned in this episode: Glow Kids by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Digital Madness by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Generation AI by Matt Britton Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman The Disappearance of Childhood by Neil Postman The Shallows by Nicholas Carr Slow Productivity by Cal Newport Careless People by Sarah Churchwell A huge thank you to our sponsors!

    Jul 5 2025
    What if your family could build more than just a cabin—what if you could build confidence, competence, and connection all at once? In this compelling conversation, Keith Phillips from Heartland Bunkies joins Ginny Yurich to explore how the humble “bunkie”—a Canadian-style mini cabin—offers far more than extra space. Together they uncover how hands-on, meaningful projects like building a bunkie can ignite creativity, combat consumerism, and restore the family unit through shared purpose and physical work. Keith shares stories from his own family of eight, Airbnb adventures, and the unexpected magic of empowering kids to do real, valuable things. Whether you're craving a new family project, considering an off-grid rental, or simply longing for a way to slow down and reconnect, this episode is full of inspiration and practical ideas. Learn how bunkies are being used as homeschool rooms, podcast studios, guest houses, and more—and how they can transform not just your property, but your priorities.
