The Race to Save Water with Mina Guli, Founder of Thirst Foundation

In this episode, Prithu Pareek speaks with Mina Guli, YPO Global Impact Award winner, ultramarathon runner, and founder of the Thirst Foundation, whose mission is to make the world see water as the foundation of every community and economy. From running across dried-up riverbeds to rallying global coalitions of governments and businesses, Mina has turned endurance into advocacy — and awareness into action.

Together, they explore why the water crisis isn’t a distant threat but a present reality, how business leaders can “run it blue” by rethinking supply chains and sustainability, and why lasting change often begins with a single step.
