Chaunté Lowe is a four-time Olympic high jumper and breast cancer survivor who turns personal adversity into a framework for peak performance.
An American record holder in the high jump, Chaunté has delivered TEDx talks that have reached audiences across multiple continents. She is also a published author whose work explores the intersection of athletic discipline and everyday resilience.
Chaunté competed at the elite level while raising a family and later continued training through a breast cancer diagnosis, returning to competition afterwards. That lived experience shapes every conversation she leads about performance under pressure.
Audiences who attend her sessions leave with a clearer method for reframing setbacks as data rather than failure and a practical approach to sustaining motivation when conditions are unfavorable.
Book Chaunté Lowe when your audience needs proof that high performance is always in reach.
Topics, sessions and talks
Chaunté Lowe trained through a breast cancer diagnosis, raised three children, and kept competing across four Olympic Games. This session uses her career as a case study in performance under conditions that would stop most people entirely. Audiences leave with insights into maintaining output through disruption, not by ignoring difficulty, but by building systems that hold under it.
Recovery is not the absence of setback, it is a repeatable process. Drawing on her return to elite competition after a cancer diagnosis, Chaunté breaks down exactly how high performers rebuild momentum when life interrupts. This session gives teams a model for re-engaging after failure or change, grounded in the realities of her own comeback.
Built around the themes of her book and TEDx talk, this session translates the mindset of a four-time Olympian into tools any professional can apply. Chaunté challenges audiences to identify the arbitrary limits they have accepted as fixed and walks them through the accountability structures she used to compete at the world's highest level as a mother, an athlete, and a cancer survivor simultaneously.
Chaunté Lowe competed at four Olympics while raising three children and completing cancer treatment, and came back to competition after both. She is an American record holder in the high jump, a TEDx speaker, and a published author. Book her when your audience needs proof that high performance is not a product of perfect conditions.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
