Ever find yourself sitting in your car after another frustrating workday, wondering how someone with your education and expertise can feel so... stuck?

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Sometimes the most powerful move is admitting when you've been playing small.

This is NOT about going backwards; it's about finally having the courage to own what we've always been about. Because here's the truth: every conversation about money is really a conversation about self-worth. Every struggle with pricing is actually a battle with confidence. And every time you undervalue your work, you're letting imposter syndrome win. Through raw...

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Okay, let's talk about the money elephant in the room. You know that awkward tug-of-war happening inside you? The one between genuinely wanting to help people and also needing to, well, pay your bills? Yeah, that one. Look, I get it. Most of us got into nutrition because we care about people, not because we were chasing big paychecks. But here's the thing – I see way too many amazing dietitians extending sessions without charging, answering texts at 10pm, and feeling straight-up guilty about raising their rates. Meanwhile, they're financially stretched and burning out fast. In this episode,...

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
So many of us find ourselves checking all the boxes of "success" while still wondering if we're on the right path. In this episode, we dive deep into what I call the "clarity crisis" – that frustrating experience of being technically successful but fundamentally confused about what you actually want.

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Your nervous system secretly controls your business decisions, money mindset, and client relationships. In this episode, I'm calling out the high-achiever myth that you can power through dysregulation and still create sustainable success. Let's get real: as high-achieving health professionals, we've normalized pushing through stress like it's a badge of honor. But what if that constant hustle is actually sabotaging the very goals you're working toward? What if your physiological state is secretly driving your money decisions, relationship patterns, and even your capacity to show up as the...

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Ever caught yourself introducing yourself as your job title before anything else? In this episode, we're diving deep into the trap of role identification and how it might be silently limiting your growth, happiness, and potential. As high-achieving health professionals, we're often vulnerable to merging our identity with our professional roles. The line between "I am a dietitian" and "I work as a dietitian" might seem subtle, but it creates a profound difference in how we navigate challenges, embrace change, and define our worth. Through neuroscience insights, personal stories, and practical...

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Love gets tossed around a lot—especially in the personal development world.

info_outlineHave you ever stumbled upon something from your past that stopped you in your tracks? In this deeply personal episode, I share a recent discovery that made me reflect on my entire professional journey - an old YouTube video that revealed how my core message about mindset has remained constant throughout my career evolution.
From my early days as a registered dietitian working with women over 40 to my current role as the founder of Manipura Centre, I explore how our past experiences and beliefs shape our professional development in ways we might not realize. This episode is all about understanding how our earlier wisdom continues to guide us, even as we evolve and grow in our careers.
Through personal stories and reflections, I delve into the power of looking back at our professional path not with criticism, but with curiosity and appreciation.
