The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast

This conversation with Debra Fileta on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast with host Ginny Yurich gets right to the ache so many women are carrying: the feeling of being stretched thin by good things, needed by everyone, and running on empty. Debra brings the kind of wisdom that makes listeners feel both seen and steadied as she talks about burnout, boundaries, soul care, screen time, motherhood, friendship, homeschooling, and the deep-rooted beliefs that keep so many of us overextending ourselves. Her reminder to stop living at 100 percent and start building margin is extremely practical. This is the kind of episode that helps you exhale, tell the truth about how tired you are, and start making a way back to joy.

Colton Dixon has spent years singing about faith, grit, and holding on when the road in front of you does not make sense yet, and this conversation on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast with host Ginny Yurich gets right to the heart of that.

From American Idol (WATCH PIANO MAN ON THE RED GRAND PIANO!!) to fatherhood, touring, the staying power of “Build a Boat,” and the kind of courage it takes to keep showing up for your calling, this episode is full of the stuff that lasts.

This particular conversation is extra unique because it happened in person and Ginny's daughters joined in with some of their own questions. It's personal and funny and it reminds you that a meaningful life is often built before the evidence arrives.

The episode also includes a special performance featuring Colton on lead vocals, Brooklyn (13) on backup vocals, and Vivian (16) on guitar. Here the chorus off the top and the whole song at the very end

Sitting out front instead of disappearing into the backyard works, too. They talk about how small shifts turn into real relationships, the kind people are missing more than we realize.
