You've dimmed your voice so someone else could feel bigger. You've carried everyone else's needs on your back while your own dream sat quiet in the corner. Not anymore. Welcome to the ICONIK CEO® Podcast for women CEOs. This show was created for the woman who's done borrowing space. Done building someone else's empire with her own two hands. You're here to build your empire. Not a hobby (no hobbist allowed). Not a side project. An empire that outlives you and cracks the door open for the next woman standing where you used to stand. Because when one woman rises, she doesn't rise alone. She pulls the whole room up with her. This is ICONIK CEO®. Stop shrinking. Start scaling.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-15T12:21:38.125176+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/iconik-ceo-6320627"},"episode":{"title":"The Real Reason You Sabotage Your Next Level, With Katie Pulsifer","slug":"the-real-reason-you-sabotage-your-next-level-with-katie-pulsifer","published_at":"2026-08-18T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/iconik-ceo-6320627/the-real-reason-you-sabotage-your-next-level-with-katie-pulsifer","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/iconik-ceo-6320627","url":"https://nikishaking.com/blog/sabotage-your-next-level-katie-pulsifer","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/1c52644c-86d7-4d5c-b0ab-7502a5d741c4.mp3","summary":"She's got the title, the income, the résumé that reads like she made it. And underneath, something still feels hollow. Katie Pulsifer has spent 13 years sitting across from women exactly there, women who've done everything right and still feel like the floor isn't quite solid. Katie's a Master Certified life coach and the creator of the Golden Coaching Certification. She spent 13 years training coaches, including Nikisha, and years before that in a corporate career that looked perfect from the outside while she quietly felt like something was missing on the inside. She's since built her own business twice, once after a divorce and once after losing what she thought was her dream job. In this episode, she and Nikisha talk about where that hollow feeling actually comes from, why it's not a sign you've done anything wrong, and what it takes to rebuild an identity when the ground shifts under you. They get into the real difference between a skill gap and a belief gap, why women quietly sabotage their own next level, and how to stop tying your worth to your business. If you've built something that looks successful and still feels like it's missing a floor underneath it, this conversation's for you.
