If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, “Everybody thinks I’m successful… so why don’t I feel successful?” This conversation is going to hit home in the deepest way.

In this powerful episode of the ICONIK CEO™ Podcast, your host Nikisha King, sit down with Sara Vezensek, a former private chef on luxury yachts turned online business coach. Her story mirrors what so many women creative entrepreneurs silently experience: burnout masked as achievement, and a longing for freedom hidden behind the façade of “having it all.”

Sara takes us inside her world, traveling the globe, earning exceptional income, living a life that looked glamorous on the outside… while feeling empty, exhausted, and disconnected on the inside. Her transformation began when she finally asked herself, “Is this the life I want, or the life I settled for?”

Together, we explore how to reclaim your time, simplify your workflow, let go of scarcity thinking, and build a business that feels aligned with your values, your freedom, and your emotional well-being.

This episode is more than a story; it’s a permission slip to design a life and business that feel like yours, not a life that looks good but costs you your peace.
