Group programs can feel like the golden ticket to scaling your business - less time, more income, more impact. But how do you know if and when it's the right next step for you?

In this episode of the Dietitian Success Podcast, I break down everything dietitian business owners need to know about a group offer - the pros, the challenges, and what needs to be in place before you launch.

Whether you’re dreaming about your first group program or wondering how to shift away from 1:1s, we’ll walk through what to consider, how to position your offer, and creative ways to structure pricing and delivery. Plus: I answer your real-time questions on pricing, live sessions, and blending insurance into your model.

Inside the episode, we'll chat about:

1. The benefits and challenges of running a group program
2. What needs to be in place before you launch
3. Whether you can skip 1:1 and go straight into groups
