What happens when the thing you love the most starts to deteriorate and change for the worse? And what happens when you take responsibility for protecting it?

This week’s guest was the youngest person to run a marathon on every continent and is currently serving as the first female CEO of Protect Our Winters. We are thrilled to welcome Erin Sprague to the podcast for a conversation about leadership when progress feels slow, transformational learning from failures, and staying curious about one of the biggest problems the world faces today: the climate crisis.

One of the most important takeaways of this conversation is: you don’t have to be perfect in sustainability to step up and make a difference. Tackling the climate crisis isn’t about being the loudest voice in the room, or having all the answers. It’s about recognizing that if you care about clean water, clean air, and stable food systems, you’re already a part of this story.

This episode will leave you feeling inspired and energized to get involved in climate solutions so we can create a future that’s rooted in collaboration, action, and hope.

Protect Our Winters helps turn the love, care, and passion for our planet into action by meeting people where they are at through community, education, and advocacy. If you’d like to learn more about POW and how you can get involved, visit: https://protectourwinters.org/
