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.
