What does dissecting cow eyeballs teach about innovation?
How do you and your team approach work? Curiosity? Innovation?
This week's guest is Holly Uber, a catalyst for curiosity whose career spans classrooms, boardrooms, and cutting-edge tech labs. After college, Holly packed her bags for Cameroon as a Peace Corps volunteer, teaching English and sparking curiosity in students halfway around the world. She earned her master's in teaching and brought science to life through hands-on experiments, quite literally one cow eyeball at a time.
But Holly's curiosity didn't stop at the classroom. She's shaped innovation across industries—developing FDA-registered digital health products at Genentech, creating award-winning AR/VR educational experiences at zSpace, and advising ventures through How Women Lead and How Women Invest. She's a mentor in accelerators, helping founders harness AI tools and break through the brain's natural pattern-seeking constraints to unlock new possibilities.
Here's what makes Holly different: she refuses to let assumptions trap her—or anyone around her—in the familiar. She believes our biggest limitation isn't what we know, it's what we assume we can't do. Her positive outlook and passion ripple through every environment she touches, inspiring everyone to get curious and smash through those invisible walls.
From the classrooms of Cameroon to the TEDx stage she's preparing for right now, Holly Uber proves that a curiosity mindset can transform not just your own world, but everyone around you. Enjoy!
