Straight to Why

Amanda sits down with Stephanie Campbell, Co-founder and General Partner of The Artemis Fund, for a conversation on venture capital, entrepreneurship, and the ideas shaping a more resilient future. From overcoming adversity in rural Alabama to becoming one of venture capital’s leading voices, Stephanie shares how her personal journey informs Artemis Fund’s mission of backing founders who strengthen families, individuals, and businesses.

Together, they explore what separates exceptional founders from the rest, why self-awareness is one of the most important entrepreneurial traits, and how the care economy represents one of the largest opportunities for innovation. The conversation also examines artificial intelligence, economic mobility, women in the workforce, and why doing well and doing good are not competing ideas—but powerful complements.
