For many women creative entrepreneurs, visibility is not a strategy problem.

It’s a confidence problem.

If showing up online feels heavy and awkward, welcome to this week's episode.

Today's episode is about giving yourself permission to show up as you are.

In this episode of the ICONIK CEO Podcast, Nikisha King breaks down the S in the R.I.S.E. Framework, Show Up with Confidence. Confidence is not being perfect or outgoing. It’s choosing to be seen even when fear is still there.

Nikisha talks about:

1. Why visibility feels scary for so many women.
2. That fear doesn’t disappear just because you start a business.

You’ll learn how confidence is built through small steps, safety, and honesty, not overnight change.

Many creative entrepreneurs are doing everything they’re told to do.

They’re posting on Instagram, showing up on LinkedIn, sending emails, networking, and still wondering why the results don’t match the effort.

In this episode of the ICONIK CEO Podcast, Nikisha King breaks down a truth most people skip over when it comes to lead generation: the problem often isn’t visibility, it’s who you’re talking to.

This conversation dives into the Identify Your People phase of the R.I.S.E. framework and explains why your message can feel like it’s floating in the air, heard by everyone and landing with no one. When your visibility isn’t focused, your content becomes easy to scroll past, even when it’s valuable.

Nikisha explains how lead generation improves when entrepreneurs stop performing for “everyone” and start connecting deeply with the right people. This episode reframes identifying your audience, not as limiting your business, but as anchoring your message so it finally lands.

If your content feels inconsistent, your engagement feels low, or inquiries don’t reflect the work you’re putting in, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening and how to shift it.

Questions that are answered in this episode:

1. Why posting more doesn’t automatically create more leads?
2. How unclear messaging keeps you invisible, even when you’re showing up?
3. What it really means to “identify your people” beyond demographics?
4. Why emotional and behavioral clarity creates stronger connections?
5. How focused visibility turns content into conversations, and conversations into clients?

Many wedding and event professionals are doing all the “right” things, posting consistently, offering value, and showing up, yet their lead generation still feels slow, inconsistent, or nonexistent.

In this episode, Nikisha King explores a truth most people never talk about: lead generation issues are often rooted in self-judgment and visibility, not strategy.

When solopreneurs feel judged by others or by themselves, they unconsciously hide parts of who they are. And when parts of you are hidden, your message doesn’t fully land.

This conversation breaks down how internal narratives, identity suppression, and fear of being seen quietly block connection with the very people you’re meant to serve.

Nikisha shares how visibility begins with revealing your authentic self, not performing a version of who you think you “should” be.

This episode isn’t about posting more or doing more. It’s about being more visible in the ways that actually convert.

• Why am I not getting consistent leads?
• How do I increase lead generation without burning out?
• Why does showing up online feel uncomfortable?
• How does visibility actually impact sales and inquiries?
• What’s blocking people from connecting with my message?

If this episode helped you see where fear or self-judgment may be holding you back, the next step is action.
