I'm so happy to share my conversation with Dr. Brianna Rita Pagán—an ultra-runner, board member of Footprints Running, space ecologist, professor and environmentalist. Her passion lies in connecting and speaking with others—through science, storytelling, and through movement.

In this episode, we talk about her journey—from discovering the magic of nature running outside, to growing a deep care for the environment, and ultimately building a career rooted in that love. She shares her evolution—as a runner, scientist, and as a human. We explore the role community has played in shaping her path, the idea of radical hope for our future, and the pure joy of running in the mountains with her dogs. Enjoy the episode!
