Empowering Dietitians

Being a dietitian is hard, and the learning curve for all of the things no one teaches us in school is steep. Join me each week for laid back, no-nonsense conversations and interviews about topics like intuitive eating, confidence, burnout, imposter syndrome, and so much more.

    [179] Bonus Series - The System is Busted – Now What? with Stephanie Clairmont

    Note: Empowering Dietitians is on a Maternity Leave hiatus January - April 2024. During this time, we will be re-airing top episodes of the show with new intros, updates, and insights. In this episode, originally aired as episode 118 of season 4, I chat with Stephanie Clairmont - former Registered Dietitian and current owner of The Leveraged Practice, a business dedicated to helping nutrition and wellness professionals avoid the burnout of 1:1 work by creating sustainable and scalable business models that suit their life goals. We discuss the systemic nature of healthcare provider burnout, and how each of our businesses aims to address those issues from different but complementary perspectives.

    [178] Bonus Series - Hustle Culture as a Dietitian Entrepreneur

    Note: Empowering Dietitians is on a Maternity Leave hiatus January - April 2024. During this time, we will be re-airing top episodes of the show with new intros, updates, and insights. Hustle culture is easy to get caught up in, especially as a dietitian entrepreneur - even if you try hard to avoid it. In this episode, originally aired as episode 117 during season 4, host Jess Romola shares her unscripted account of her own brush with hustle culture to normalize the process of identifying "slips" and misalignments, and making intentional choices to bring our decisions back in line with our values.

    [176] Bonus Series - Dietitian Money Scarcity

    Note: Empowering Dietitians is on a Maternity Leave hiatus January - April 2024. During this time, we will be re-airing top episodes of the show with new intros, updates, and insights. One of the biggest complaints dietitians have is their compensation. We are a chronically underpaid field, and this can create a lot of money scarcity for us. How can we learn to have a more abundant, or secure relationship with money that allows us to make decisions in alignment with our true values and priorities -- without ignoring the fact that money is a necessity in our society? Listen in to hear Jess' take, originally aired as episode 119 during season 4.

In this episode, I chat with Barb Mayfield - Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, editor of the textbook Communicating Nutrition: The Authoritative Guide, and founder of Nutrition Communicator, a business supporting fellow dietitians to feel more confident in their communication skills. We discuss communication skills as a current gap in the field, the importance of engaging your audience (whether that's an audience of 500, or of 1!), and why developing a "signature style" is important for your work.
