EP.374: The Final Lesson: What Money Was Really Teaching Us
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
After six years and 373 conversations about money, pricing, and professional worth, I'm going to tell you something that might surprise you: this was never really about the money. Every episode where we challenged limiting beliefs about what dietitians can earn, every conversation about raising your rates and owning your value, every deep dive into money mindset: all of it was preparation for something deeper. Something more essential than your bank account or your business revenue. It was about learning to trust yourself completely. And that's what this final lesson is about. In this...

EP.373: Why I Haven't Recorded in 3 Weeks (And Why That's Actually Perfect)
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
You know that feeling when someone disappears for a few weeks and your mind immediately goes to: "Are they okay? Did they give up? Is everything falling apart?" I haven't recorded an episode in three weeks. And honestly, I almost didn't tell you why. I just wanted to show up this week like nothing happened and keep it moving. But that's not how we do things here. Because what's been happening in these three weeks isn't what you think. I haven't been burned out. I haven't given up. And my business isn't failing. I've been in one of the most aligned seasons I've had in years. And it's looked...

EP.372: Start Before You're Ready
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
If you find yourself stuck in endless research mode, watching YouTube videos about starting a nutrition practice while your actual practice remains an idea, you're not alone. So many dietitians tell me they need to know exactly how everything will unfold before they take their first step. They're spending months creating business plans for practices that don't exist yet, researching software for clients they don't have, and perfecting websites for services they've never delivered. Maybe you've been telling yourself you need a perfect business plan, the ideal website, or complete certainty...

EP.371: You're Number One
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
You know that feeling when you wake up and your first thought isn't about your day, your dreams, or even your coffee, but instead it's about who needs what from you today? Your partner needs you to handle that thing they've been putting off. Your kids need you to solve their problems before they even head off to school. Your clients need responses to emails that came in overnight. Your team needs decisions. Your parents need check-ins. And somewhere in the back of your mind, there's this tiny voice asking, "But what about what I need?" And you push it down because there's no time for that...

Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
After 370 episodes of this podcast, I'm sharing what I've learned about building a business that honors both your ambitions and your humanity. Sometimes the most aligned thing you can do is pause, reflect, and show up honestly instead of perfectly. Today's episode isn't about strategy or tactics, it's about the real journey of creating work that serves your life, even when that means admitting you need a nap at 2 PM. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why showing up honestly beats showing up perfectly every time How rest and reflection are actually business strategies, not...

EP.369: The Life and Mindset Work Most Business Coaches Skip
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Your nutrition clients always think they just need a meal plan, but you know the real work goes so much deeper. They need to address their sleep, stress, relationship with food, and maybe some family boundary issues. The meal plan is just one piece of a much bigger puzzle. The same thing happens with your business. You think you need a marketing strategy - a better funnel, a new social media approach, maybe some sales training. But what you actually need is to address the life circumstances and limiting beliefs that are sabotaging your success behind the scenes. Here's the truth I've learned...

EP.368: The Real Reason Business Coaching Isn't Working for You
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
You're doing everything "right" in your business, but still struggling to get where you want to be. You've bought the courses, hired the coaches, followed the frameworks to a T—and you're STILL not seeing the results everyone promised you'd get. Maybe you've even started wondering what's wrong with you, why everyone else seems to "get it" while you're stuck spinning your wheels. Here's what I've learned after working with hundreds of amazing dietitians: You're not failing at business. Business coaching is failing you by treating you like a machine instead of honoring who you are. If...

EP.367: Why Trusting Yourself is the Missing Link in Private Practice Growth
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
You're frantically preparing for client sessions again, convinced you need the perfect protocol and flawless notes to be "ready." I get it—so many dietitians tell me they feel unprepared, like they need everything mapped out perfectly before they can show up confidently for their clients. But here's what I know after working with hundreds of nutrition professionals: you're already more prepared than you think. That feeling of "I need to have it all figured out" is actually keeping you from accessing your greatest asset, your inner wisdom and professional intuition. What if I told you that...

EP.366: When Success Isn’t Enough
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Ever look at your successful practice and think, "This should be enough"? You have everything you thought you wanted: steady clients, professional recognition, maybe even the financial stability you once dreamed of. But there's a persistent feeling that something's missing, a voice inside saying, "There has to be more than this." Maybe you find yourself going through the motions of your workday, checking off tasks that used to excite you but now feel routine. Or perhaps you catch yourself daydreaming about what else you could be doing with your expertise, your time, your one precious life....

EP.365: Why Your Years Of Experience Aren't Translating To Income (And How To Fix It)
Make More Money as a Dietitian | Private Practice, Business Confidence, Career Flexibility, Financial Freedom
Ever find yourself scrolling LinkedIn and seeing yet another post from a seasoned RD talking about financial struggles? You know the ones - "After 20 years in clinical nutrition, I'm still living paycheck to paycheck." Your heart sinks because you recognize yourself in their words. You may be that experienced RD, sitting there with multiple certifications, decades of knowledge, and a resume that should command respect and premium salary. Instead, you're making marginally more than the new grad who just started last month. You're handling the complex cases, training the newbies, and essentially...
info_outlineSo 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.
I'm sharing my own journey from scattered success to aligned clarity, and why getting clear on your values isn't about limiting your options – it's about liberating your energy to flow in directions that actually matter to you.
If you're tired of second-guessing your choices, comparing yourself to other dietitians, or feeling disconnected from the career you're building, this episode will help you reconnect with what truly matters to YOU.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE
-
The critical difference between achievement-driven goals and values-aligned vision
-
How to recognize if you're experiencing a "clarity crisis" (and why it's so common among high-achievers)
-
The crucial distinction between values and validation (and why mistaking one for the other leads to hollow success)
-
Practical approaches to uncover your authentic values beneath layers of "shoulds" and expectations
-
How to design a vision that genuinely excites rather than overwhelms you
-
Creating simple "decision filters" that make daily choices easier and more aligned
Stop building a business based on what a successful dietitian "should" do. This episode cuts through the noise of comparison and external expectations to help you distinguish between achievement for validation and success that's actually aligned with who you are. You'll learn how to recognize when you're in a clarity crisis and practical tools to find your way back to what lights you up.
Whether you're just starting your career or looking to realign an established practice, these insights will help you build a professional life that feels like yours, not someone else's version of success.
