    Creating Optionality Without Panic with Natalie Deering

    In this episode of Built to Radiate, I’m joined by Natalie Deering, a licensed therapist, IFS practitioner, and host of Intuitive Self: IFS + Intuition + Spirituality. Natalie shares her journey from working in a university counseling center to gradually building a private therapy practice that feels deeply aligned with who she is. We talk about the money fears that come with leaving a steady paycheck, the decision to stay private pay, how she thought about pricing, and why building a business does not always require one dramatic leap. This conversation also explores Internal Family Systems, parts work, intuition, business investments, the temptation to buy or build more than we actually need, and the power of saying no to opportunities that are not aligned. Whether you are an entrepreneur, creative, employee, parent, or someone quietly wondering what your next chapter could look like, this episode is a reminder that freedom can be built slowly, intentionally, and with self-compassion. Your next chapter does not have to be built from panic. It can be built from curiosity, trust, and the willingness to let yourself evolve.

    Build a Life That Actually Feels Like Yours

    Welcome to the very first episode of Built to Radiate, a podcast about money, identity, entrepreneurship, self-worth, and the intentional choices that help us build lives that actually feel amazing to live. In this opening episode, I’m sharing why I created this podcast and the deeper questions that inspired it. After years of working in corporate sales, marketing, and human resources, I found myself professionally successful but internally out of alignment. That discomfort led me into a deep exploration of financial independence, self-awareness, creativity, entrepreneurship, and eventually becoming an investment advisor. What I discovered is that most people are not lacking dreams. They are lacking the structure, systems, self-trust, and emotional safety to actually move toward them. This podcast is about the space between freedom and safety. It’s about questioning the inherited definitions of success we unconsciously live inside, understanding our own nervous systems, and creating financial structures that give us more optionality, not just someday in retirement, but in the life we are living right now. In this episode, I explore: • Why money is a tool for optionality, not just security• The tension between freedom and responsibility• How self-understanding helps us design lives that fit• Why entrepreneurship is not the only path to freedom• How financial planning can support reinvention, creativity, sabbaticals, career pivots, and more aligned choices• The marriage of the practical and the magical in building a radiant life Built to Radiate will feature conversations with artists, wellness practitioners, founders, professionals, creatives, and people reinventing themselves in real time. My hope is that each episode gives you more self-trust, more possibility, and a little more courage to build a life that truly fits you.
