Mushrooms to the Rescue: HIRO's Innovation

Published 14 days ago • 1 min read

Hi friend,

I am so excited to share this with you — the latest episode of Heal With Mushrooms just went live, and it features someone whose work I deeply admire: Miki Agrawal, the visionary behind TUSHY, THINX, and now HIRO Technologies.

HIRO is reinventing baby diapers using mycelium activators — friendly fungi that help break down diaper plastic once they reach the landfill.

Most diapers take 400–500 years to decompose.

HIRO diapers are designed for 12 months.

This is the kind of applied mycology that gives me genuine hope.

In the episode, we explore:

• how mycelium breaks down plastic

• baby diapers as “poop bombs” that can become regenerative

• designing products that solve real problems

• why nature is the blueprint for innovation

• how parents can reduce diaper use through elimination communication

• the global waste crisis and fungal solutions

If you’re a mama, pregnant friend, or someone who cares about regenerative futures — this conversation is powerful.
