An expert guide to becoming an impact millionaire, Oliver Dauert
Oliver Dauert is on a mission to make you an impact millionaire. He’s an ecopreneur with a community with over 40,000 people.He’s the founder of Wildya where he helps people do exactly that: ecopreneurs go from idea to impact.Oliver explains why food systems—not energy—are the frontline of biodiversity loss, how shifting to a more “plant-powered” diet creates outsized impact, and why awareness of nature’s decline lags so far behind climate change. We explore the drivers of nature loss (habitat destruction, over-exploitation, pollution, invasive species, and climate change) and what ordinary people can do to make a difference.We also dive into parenthood, community building, and how to actually start conversations about nature with friends and family without turning them off. Oliver shares his take on regenerative agriculture, ecopreneurship, and why being an “impact millionaire” beats chasing unicorn status.This podcast is brought to you by Ecologi, the UK's most trusted climate action platform.

How to avoid “F*ck it, the world is burning” mindset. Do this instead. Hannah Cox, Better Business
Hannah Cox is running 100 marathons in 100 days across India to raise £1m for climate-affected people through 1% for the planet in a mission called Project Salt Run. She’s also the founder of the Better Business Network (BBN) which is a nationwide network for purpose-driven businesses. We get into why materiality, not moral purity, drives real impact (Hannah shares how a materiality assessment can help your business to have actual impact. Hannah shares the BBN playbook for building inclusive, non-judgmental communities, the “easy, accessible, cool” framework that nudges behavior change at festivals (like the reusable cup token scheme), and why collaboration and asking for help beat lone-wolf heroics. We talk money as fuel not destination, travel and privilege, skepticism of vague net-zero pledges, and why “movement is a message”—plus how to pick your own Project Salt Run and trust your gut when the stakes feel scary.This podcast is brought to you by Ecologi, the UK's most trusted climate action platform.
