Supporting Underrepresented and Mission-Driven Entrepreneurs with Kate Lowry
On this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I welcome Kate, a Silicon Valley CEO, coach, and venture capitalist. She has dedicated her career to supporting underrepresented and mission-driven founders who bring unique perspectives and innovative solutions to their communities.
We discuss the motivations that drive entrepreneurs in healthcare, AI, and climate tech, and how clarifying purpose is key to long-term impact. Kate also shares strategies for navigating toxic and fear-based leadership environments, offering a practical toolkit built from 30 years of experience. Together, we explore how leaders can resist hierarchical pressures, build resilience, and thrive without sacrificing values.
Kate’s new book, Unbreakable, will be released on October 28, and provides guidance for professionals facing toxic leadership cultures.
