  • Summary

  • In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich sits down with leadership expert and bestselling author Tim Elmore to explore a startling reality: today’s kids are drowning in information but starving for firsthand experience. As adolescence stretches longer than ever—sometimes into the late 20s—young people are overexposed to knowledge before they’re ready but underexposed to real-world challenges until it’s too late. Elmore unpacks why this shift is happening and how overprotection, prescriptive parenting, and risk aversion are leaving kids unprepared for adulthood. With decades of experience developing young leaders, Elmore offers solutions for reversing this trend—starting with allowing kids to face real challenges, take meaningful risks, and develop the social and emotional resilience they’ll need in life. He explains why protecting kids from discomfort today can lead to greater harm tomorrow and why true preparation means letting them fail, struggle, and grow. This powerful conversation will challenge you to rethink how we guide the next generation toward genuine readiness, not just survival. ** Get your copy of Generation Z Unfiltered here Learn more about Tim Elmore and all he has to offer including the Habitudes here Learn more about Growing Leaders here ** Get your 1000 Hours Outside Really Very Crunchy Tour Tickets here !!
