In one of the most compelling episodes of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich sits down with Dr. Meg Meeker, America's leading authority on parenting and children's health, to explore the profound ways we can nurture healthy, resilient boys. Dr. Meeker shares eye-opening insights on the dangers of screen time, the essential role of outdoor play, and the surprising benefits of "war games" in fostering boys’ development. She dives deep into why faith is crucial for boys’ emotional well-being, how handwritten notes can strengthen parent-child relationships, and the importance of mothers trusting their instincts despite societal pressures. With actionable advice and heartfelt stories, this episode is a must-listen for anyone raising or loving boys. ** Learn more about Dr. Meeker and find out about her coaching here Get your copy of Boys Should be Boys here Find all of Dr. Meeker's books here ** Download your free 1000 Hours Outside tracker here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/trackers Find everything you need to kick off your 1000 Hours Outside Journey here >> https://www.1000hoursoutside.com/blog/allthethings Order of copy of Ginny's newest book, Until the Streetlights Come On here >> https://amzn.to/3RXjBlN Learn more about your ad choices.
