Olympia Yarger filled a knowledge gap in my brain: the beauty of maggots. I never fully appreciated maggots, particularly of the black soldier fly, until I interviewed her. We also chatted about her husband's military career and the challenges of being a military family with a touching story about one of their family dogs.

Olympia is helping reshape waste management as the founder and current CEO of Goterra, located in Australia. Her drive towards more efficient farming and reducing food waste has led to a new kind of insect farming using autonomous robotics.

She is a determined, resilient, and larvae-loving-leader in the fight to develop a circular relationship between nature, technology, and food consumption. Something new this week on Remarkable People podcast!
