    What It Actually Takes to Build a $30K/Month Practice

    If you’re already getting clients and generating $5K per month, scaling to $30K months isn’t about working harder. It’s about prioritising the right things. In this episode, I’m sharing the three strategic priorities I’d focus on if I were scaling a nutrition business in 2026, and where I see capable practitioners waste time at this stage. Here’s What You’ll Learn: ✨ The one growth focus you need (and what to stop splitting your energy across) ✨ What a truly predictable funnel looks like (organic + paid traffic) ✨ The key business metrics you must track to scale strategically and sustainably ✨ How to remove yourself as the bottleneck and step into CEO-level leadership ✨ Why 10X growth requires business redesign If this is the stage you’re in, this conversation will challenge how you’re thinking about growth and design a business that doesn’t rely on you to be present for every dollar you make. Links Mentioned in This Episode: 🌴 Phuket Nutrition Business Retreat: For the practitioner who’s already generating an income and is ready to create unstoppable momentum.  Spend 5 focused days in Phuket stepping out of execution mode and into high-level decision making.

    The 3 Engines Powering a Thriving 6-Figure Dietitian Business

    Many dietitians build their business using the same mindset they had as an employee - focused on doing more, playing it safe, and holding everything together themselves. That’s why even when clients are coming in, the business still feels unstable. In this episode, I share why stability doesn’t come from hustling and pushing; it comes from building the right systems. Here’s What You’ll Learn: ✨ Why making money and having a stable business aren’t the same ✨ The shift from employee thinking to business owner thinking ✨ The three engines powering every thriving 6-figure business If your business feels busy but fragile, this episode will help you see what’s missing, and what actually needs to change for you to build a sustainable 6-figure online nutrition business. 🔗 Links Mentioned in This Episode 🚀 Momentum Club: Enrollments are now open until February 13th!
