Sensitive Change Makers: Coaching for HSPs, Introverts & Purpose-Driven Entrepreneurs and Leaders
Welcome to Sensitive Change Makers — the podcast for highly sensitive people (HSPs), introverted entrepreneurs, and purpose-led leaders ready to break free from overwhelm, build confidence, and take aligned action in life and business.
I'm Kate Carter — trauma-informed coach, HSP, introvert, and teacher turned passionate coach and mentor for sensitive souls. After decades of living with anxiety and panic attacks, I finally discovered how to transform sensitivity into a superpower — and now I help other introverts and HSPs do the same.
Each week, I share empowering conversations, mindset shifts, and practical coaching tools to support you in creating a life and business that truly fit you.
Whether you're navigating stress, fear of visibility, or feeling stuck playing small, this podcast is here to help you reconnect with your gifts, lead with authenticity, and create success on your own terms.
If you're ready to stop second-guessing yourself, release anxiety, and step confidently into a life of purpose, intention, and joy — you're in the right place.

S3, EP 26: The Gift of Being Perceptive: Redefining Leadership with Rachel Radway
In this episode, I welcome leadership coach, author, and speaker Rachel Radway, whose new book Perceptive explores the untapped power of high sensory perception in leadership.
With over 25 years in corporate leadership, Rachel shares her fascinating journey—from navigating global roles and language immersion to discovering her calling as a coach for highly perceptive and neurodivergent leaders.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt “too sensitive” in environments that value toughness over intuition. Tune in to explore:
- Rachel’s winding, multicultural career journey and how it shaped her coaching approach
- The surprising power of high sensitivity and what makes it a leadership superpower
- Common misconceptions around sensitivity and how they hold people back
- Insights from Rachel’s research and interviews with women leaders featured in Perceptive
- The challenges of masking, people-pleasing, and reclaiming your intuitive voice
- Why empathy, deep listening, and strategic thinking are more than soft skills—they're strengths
Whether you're a sensitive leader, a curious empath, or someone navigating a non-traditional path, this conversation offers validation, empowerment, and practical wisdom.
Find out why sensitivity isn’t a weakness—it’s a gift.
