Chaunte would have never guessed, with all that she was able to accomplish, that her biggest obstacles would come off the track. In 2019, Lowe was rattled with the devastating diagnosis of triple-negative breast cancer, which is among the most aggressive forms.
In a state of disbelief, Chaunte was forced to take the crushing blow head-on, being forced to bow out of the national championships for a double mastectomy. The world championships were missed for chemotherapy. Still, in Chaunte fashion, she decided that she would fight against all odds and still train through chemo in hopes of making the delayed 2020 US Olympic team.

In addition to her work as a professional speaker, her advocacy work focuses on early detection and breast cancer awareness with the end goal of saving lives. Reached hundreds of millions of people, she was honored with the NCAA Inspiration Award, The 'Hero Among Us' award, and was named to Georgia Tech's 40 under 40 2021 Class.
