1KHO 472: Exercise is the Opposite of Stress | Anders Hansen, The Real Happy Pill
In one of the most compelling and enlightening episodes of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich sits down with psychiatrist and bestselling author Dr. Anders Hansen to explore the powerful, science-backed link between movement and mental health. Drawing from his groundbreaking book The Real Happy Pill (also published as The Mind-Body Method), Hansen explains why exercise isn't just good for your body—it’s one of the most effective tools we have to boost brain function, protect against depression and dementia, reduce stress, and even increase creativity and intelligence. You’ll hear incredible stories, including how walking can literally grow your brain, and how just 20 minutes of movement can sharpen focus and improve academic performance in kids. From ADHD to anxiety, executive function to emotional resilience, Dr. Hansen breaks down the latest neuroscience to show how movement is a true game-changer. This conversation will leave you energized, hopeful, and ready to move—because the science is clear: exercise doesn't just help you feel better... it changes your brain for the better. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or lifelong learner, this is a must-listen episode that just might change the way you see the simple act of walking. ** Get your copy of The Real Happy Pill here Learn more about Anders Hansen here Learn more about your ad choices.

1KHO 471: Screens, Safetyism, and the Collapse of Parenting | Dr. Leonard Sax, The Collapse of Parenting
In this gripping episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Dr. Leonard Sax—family physician, psychologist, and bestselling author—explains how American culture has quietly dismantled the foundation of effective parenting. From the normalization of disrespect to the overreliance on screens, Dr. Sax outlines the subtle but powerful shifts that have led to rising anxiety, plummeting resilience, and widespread disconnection in today’s youth. He warns against the illusion of safety that keeps kids indoors, over-scheduled, and emotionally underprepared—and calls on parents to reclaim their authority and their role in shaping a better, stronger future for their children. With stories from his decades of clinical work and global school visits, Dr. Sax brings clarity to a chaotic landscape. He offers an urgent but hopeful message: it’s not too late to course-correct. Real change begins when we limit toxic cultural inputs, reestablish parent-child attachment, allow kids to face real-world risk, and redefine what success truly means. This is a must-listen for any parent who feels alone, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to raise strong, joyful, unfragile kids in an increasingly fragile world. ** Learn more about Dr. Sax and all he has to offer here Get your copy of The Collapse of Parenting here Learn more about your ad choices.

In one of the most heartwarming conversations yet on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich welcomes Leah Boden back to explore her new book series, Tales of Boldness and Faith. Together they dive into the life of C.S. Lewis, the power of stories to shape a soul, and the lingering beauty of a well-spent childhood.

This episode is a celebration of imagination, slow living, and the unseen ways we pour into the future simply by living well today. If you’ve ever wondered if small choices matter, if storytelling still has a place in a noisy world, or if childhood wonder can linger into adulthood — this conversation will encourage you deeply.

1KHO 469: There is a War Being Raged Over Your Food Choices | Dr. Cate Shanahan, The Fatburn Fix
In one of the most life-altering conversations we’ve ever had on the podcast, Dr. Cate Shanahan returns to unpack the deep, deceptive forces shaping our food choices—and what it’s doing to our bodies. Drawing from her groundbreaking book The Fatburn Fix, Dr. Cate reveals how vegetable oils have quietly become the most damaging ingredient in our food supply, disrupting our metabolism, fueling chronic illness, and rewiring our hunger cues from childhood. Together, we expose the myths we’ve been fed for decades—from snacking culture to sweeteners with no calories—and offer real, doable steps to take back your health, energy, and sanity. This episode is a masterclass in metabolic truth, challenging everything you’ve been taught about what’s “healthy” to eat. We talk about why most people don’t experience normal hunger anymore, how fat is actually an organ, and why fixing your energy is more important than chasing weight loss. You’ll walk away with a powerful sense of agency—and a new filter for reading nutrition labels, scrolling through diet trends, and making food choices that actually work. Listen in and join the frontlines of a food revolution. ** Get your copy of The Fatburn Fix here Get your copy of Dark Calories here Learn more about Dr. Cate and sign up for her newsletter here A huge thank you to our sponsors!

1KHO 468: 5 Powerful Prescriptions You Won’t Find at the Pharmacy | Julia Hotz, The Connection Cure
Journalist and author Julia Hotz joins Ginny Yurich to discuss her groundbreaking book, The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service, and Belonging. In this conversation, Julia shares how doctors around the world are writing prescriptions that don’t come from a pharmacy—like a group bike ride, a painting class, or even fishing. These five powerful, research-backed “social prescriptions” are helping people overcome depression, anxiety, addiction, chronic illness, and loneliness. Together, Ginny and Julia explore the science behind these interventions, the global movement toward social prescribing, and how we can begin writing our own prescriptions for joy, connection, and well-being—right where we are. This episode is full of hope, practical insight, and a fresh look at what it really means to be healthy. ** Get your copy of The Connection Cure here Learn more about Julia and all she has to offer here A huge thank you to our sponsors!

Über The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast

Childhood is finite at just shy of 9.5 million minutes. We only get one shot at it. One of the biggest decisions we make is how we will use that time. Research has confirmed time and time again that what children are naturally and unabashedly drawn to, unrestricted outside play, contributes extensively to every area of childhood development. The importance here cannot be understated. Every year we aim to match nature time with the average amount of American kid screen time (which is currently 1200 hours per year). Have a goal. Track your time outside. Take back childhood. Inspire others.
