Summary

In this inspiring episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, host Ginny Yurich sits down with bestselling author and artist Ruth Chou Simons for a heartwarming conversation about striving less and finding contentment. Ruth shares personal stories about her creative journey, the challenges of raising six boys, and her transition from a career in science to becoming an accomplished artist and children's book author. Together, they dive into themes from Ruth’s book When Strivings Cease and her latest children's book Home is Right Where You Are, drawing parallels between faith, motherhood, and the constant process of growth. With authenticity and warmth, Ruth encourages listeners to embrace beauty, trust the journey, and discover that home is not a place, but a state of heart. ** 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.
