The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast

In a world that’s constantly evolving, how do we raise children to thrive in ways that truly last? Join us for a dynamic conversation with Jon Acuff as we explore the values and principles that remain unshaken by time. Jon shares his perspective on parenting with timeless truths at the core—like honesty, hard work, and meaningful relationships—while navigating the rapid changes of today’s culture. From his concept of “auditioning goals” to rethinking the soundtracks that guide your life, Jon offers practical tools to help you parent with purpose and clarity.

This episode is filled with humor, profound wisdom, and actionable advice. Jon discusses how grit is fueled by belief, how excellence can feel lonely without the right community, and why parenting is about building a legacy kids want to return to. Learn how to parent toward the things that never change, apply enduring truths to modern challenges, and laugh through the journey as you create a family life that’s remarkable by design. If you’ve ever wondered how to focus on what truly matters while adapting to life’s ever-changing demands, this conversation will leave you inspired and equipped.
