HIRO Diapers isn’t just reinventing nappies, it’s taking on the global plastic crisis one baby at a time. In this episode, Jack and Ellie chat with serial “taboo breaker” Miki Agrawal, founder of HIRO Diapers, to explore how plastic‑eating fungi, unbleached materials and a regenerative mindset could transform one of the world’s dirtiest industries.

From the eureka moment inspired by her son, to diapers (or nappies for our UK listeners) can start breaking down in landfill in months, Miki shares a radically hopeful vision for parents who want to raise their kids in a cleaner, more connected world.

Topics covered include:

  • Turning baby poop into a climate solution
  • Diapers powered by plastic‑eating fungi
  • The truth about “eco” bamboo diapers
  • Potty training early with elimination communication
  • Putting nature on the company board
  • Becoming an ecosystem‑conscious parent
