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.

1KHO 515: How to Fail Well | Diane Boden, Clear Intentions
What if failure wasn’t the end—but the path forward? In this vulnerable and thought-provoking episode, Diane Boden returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to discuss her bold decision to rebrand her long-running show Minimalist Moms into Clear Intentions. Together, Diane and Ginny Yurich explore the messy beauty of growth, identity, and the risk of shifting directions when something no longer fits—especially when you've built an entire identity around it. What does it mean to live intentionally in a culture that demands certainty and punishes change? Diane offers hard-earned insight into why it’s okay to pivot, to try again, and to hold purpose more tightly than pride.
They also dig into real-life intentional living—from screen time boundaries and Sabbath rhythms to wardrobe simplicity, parenting with presence, and preparing well for the end of life. This conversation is an invitation to be brave, to let go of what's extra, and to keep becoming—because, as Diane reminds us, iteration isn't failure. It's life.
