Entrepreneurial Women with Purpose, Kate Billing - Blacksmith

As one of the founding New Zealand B Corps and leader of Conscious Capitalism in New Zealand, we knew a conversation with Kate was going to be aligned, dynamic and juicy. But we didn't anticipate just how juicy. As an early riser and deep thinker she has a strong sense of drive for achievement and is learning to become more self-is to not only give but also contribute time to herself.  Although she believes the idea of being more selfish or self-ish can be uncomfortable we know that true growth and new pathways for impact can come from those deep spaces. Kate has a strong sense of who she is and who she wants to become, and shares how taking a true sense of personal leadership and embodying strength and grace as a woman can only lead to a better state of humanity. As a humanist rather than a feminist, Kate encapsulates a woman on a mission to take all of humanity on the journey. Through Blacksmith, Kate has connected to better ways of doing business through having a higher purpose, conscious culture and a whole stakeholder approach.
