Looking for Solutions

In this episode of the Driven: Unscripted Success Podcast, Mike Mannino Sr. and Nareman Hamdan sit down with Catherine Jadot, a marine biologist who turned her passion for the ocean into a mission to find real-world climate solutions. Catherine shares her journey from Belgium to the Caribbean and Florida, moving from academia into consulting, where she works with governments, private investors, and communities to restore reefs, protect coastlines, and fund sustainable ocean projects.

She opens up about the challenges of starting fresh in new fields, how experience often outweighs degrees, and why translating between science, government, and private capital is key to solving climate issues. Catherine also reveals her latest project — a book titled How It Doesn’t End: Empowering Solutions for Climate Change — along with her efforts to create training courses that will help governments and investors support the “blue economy.”
