The tracker she built on a Redmi 13c

Faramade Gloria Olu-Falade, who is building her personal brand as THE CLIMATE JUSTICIAR, built her own applications tracker for people in the social impact space on her phone, after the app she was using duplicated all her records.

"Earlier this year, I was juggling so many applications that I downloaded a tracker app to manage them," she says. It glitched and duplicated everything. So she built her own, on her mobile phone, using Claude AI and Lovable AI. "Then it hit me," she says: "if I needed this, so did thousands of others as well."

The CJ Tracker came out of that. It is for people in the social impact space, whether they are starting out or already working, and it tracks applications, points to resources and surfaces opportunities in a person's niche. It also recommends leaders, companies and firms to follow, based on the SDG goals a user cares about.

“Climate Change is way more than a concept. It is a reality that is negatively reshaping our environment, our health and even our economy.”

It is still a Progressive Web App, which means it runs in a browser. She is building it on a Redmi 13c.

"This is for the 19 year old me who started out in 2022 but didn't know where to begin," she says. She had the ideas and no route to them, so she took course after course, close to 100 certifications, and came out feeling like "a Jack of all Trades, Master of None." As she puts it: "I was lost. Doing everything and nothing at once because there were no roadmaps for people like me."

She has narrowed her brand to three pillars: environmentalism, meaning environmental awareness and advocacy; creativity; and social innovation. Out of the last of these came socialimpactjourneyguide.lovable.app, which she built to help people get started in the sector.

The Climate Justiciar Magazine is next. It was planned for her birthday, 4 September, and did not make that date; it will launch later this year, on a date not yet set. It is not only a climate magazine. It is for creatives, environmentalists, social innovators, social entrepreneurs, multipotentialites, and anyone trying to get started in the social impact space. That second audience matters to her as much as the first: her generation is inheriting the planet, she says, and the AI age has handed it tools, knowledge and resources no earlier generation had for designing solutions. It is, in her words, "a magazine for everyone, for the 19 year old me".
