What happens when a woman who’s spent her whole life trying to “do it right” realises she’s been performing her way through her own pleasure?

In this episode of Change Unfiltered, Angela Scott explores what it really takes to move from performance to presence through the story of a woman who rebuilt her life from the inside out.

After years of chasing perfection, pleasing others, and staying busy enough not to feel, Heloïse Haupt found herself at a breaking point - burnt out, disconnected, and quietly ashamed of the truth she was hiding. What began as a private search for self-understanding became a complete reawakening of confidence, body connection and self-worth.

Together, they talk about:

• The hidden parallels between career burnout and emotional disconnection

• Why so many women perform their way through life and what it takes to stop

• How shame keeps us quiet, and how honesty begins to heal it

• The link between self-love, pleasure, and personal power

• What changes when you finally start listening to your body’s wisdom

This is a conversation about permission, to feel, to rest and to want more, and the freedom that comes when you stop faking it.

In this solo episode, Angela reflects on the two very different opening conversations of the season with Lata Hamilton on leading change and Karen Skidmore on living it. What begins as a comparison becomes a deeper exploration of how real transformation always has two layers: the outer work of what we do, and the inner work of who we’re becoming.

Angela unpacks why we often feel “stuck” when our inner change hasn’t yet caught up with the external one, how raw and polished states both have value, and why the in-between (that uncomfortable neutral zone) is where wisdom forms.

If you’re navigating a transition, in work or in life, this episode is a reminder that confusion isn’t failure. It’s growth in motion.

Themes: – The two layers of change: outer vs. inner – Raw vs. polished states of transformation – The psychology of endings, neutral zones, and beginnings – Midlife leadership and the courage to stay curious

Karen Skidmore has worn many professional identities but the one she’s most proud of might just be the one she never planned for.

In this episode, Karen joins Angela to explore what happens when success stops fitting the way it used to. From corporate boardrooms to coaching programmes to Reiki and somatic healing, her story is one of continuous reinvention and learning to listen, not just to logic but to the body’s quiet signals.

Together, they unpack what it means to outgrow old definitions of achievement, to move beyond conditioning, and to let midlife become a time of renewal rather than retreat.

In this episode:

• The hidden confidence gap and the reality of imposter feelings

• How conditioning shapes our early ideas of success and how to unlearn them

• The unexpected lessons of 20 years in self-employment

• What it takes to let go of a thriving business when it no longer fits

• How the body often knows what the mind can’t yet articulate

• Why midlife is the perfect time to shapeshift and begin again
