What happens when you challenge convention, disrupt expectations, and lead with purpose across borders—literal and cultural?

In Breaking Borders, Kate Isler shares the compelling story of her unconventional path—from navigating leadership as a global executive at Microsoft to launching mission-driven ventures that advance gender equity and women’s economic empowerment.

This is not a traditional business memoir. It’s a candid, empowering account of breaking the rules, navigating setbacks, and balancing career, family, and values across continents and corporate cultures. With humor, vulnerability, and insight, Kate invites readers to rethink what’s possible and redefine success on their own terms.

Whether you’re building your leadership journey, leading a team, or looking to align your career with your values, Breaking Borders offers both inspiration and a practical call to action.

"Kate’s story is a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and purpose-driven leadership. She challenges you to think bigger and act bolder."
