In this episode, Hannah and Joel dig into the wild emotional rollercoaster of climate action, and chat about how their both just trying to figure it out as they go. Discussing doubt, donuts, sweaty run clubs, and what it means to be an eco warrior in a world that often feels like it’s working against you.

Hannah shares how she went from the festival scene to leading a sustainability agency and teaching carbon literacy. We talk about burnout, the weight of knowing too much, and why doing something matters, even if it’s small or imperfect.

If you’ve ever felt like climate change is overwhelming, or you’ve questioned whether your effort is even worth it, this one’s for you.

In the face of unprecedented environmental challenges, Project Salt Run aims to inspire action through an extraordinary journey of transformation. Hannah Cox, a sustainability advocate with Indian heritage and a first-time runner, will undertake a life-changing challenge across India, following the historic Inland Customs Line. 

This colonial-era boundary enforced a devastating salt tax, causing immense suffering and millions of deaths, but has been largely forgotten from history.
By retracing this route, Hannah seeks to honour its legacy and transform its meaning, inviting others to discover their own version of extraordinary. This journey is not about guarantees of success—Hannah faces the real possibility of failure—but it’s a powerful reminder that taking bold steps, even in uncertainty, can inspire meaningful change.
