  • [069] Finding Career Direction with Allie Aron, RD

    In this episode of the podcast, I'm joined by Allison Aron, a dietitian and current Empowering Dietitians client. We chat about her experience in supervision (spoiler: I'm not her first supervisor!), the types of topics and issues we addressed specific to her being new to private practice, her advice for other dietitians listening who are feeling a little lost or directionless themselves. To connect with Allie, you can email her at [email protected]. And if you resonated with what Allie had to say, let's stay in touch! I'm not currently accepting new clients, so in the meantime, get some of the ground work started with my free 10-day journal for dietitians at www.empoweringdietitians.com/free.

  • [068] Questioning Your Decision to Become a Dietitian?

    In this episode, I'm chatting about the recent surge in the number of dietitians questioning their decision to go into this field, and the number of students being told by seasoned dietitians to choose another path. We are collectively feeling fed up: underpaid, undervalued, and full of doubt. I'm sharing my insights on why this is happening, and walking you through the process I use with dietitians in my supervision program to help you gain clarity and confidence on the right path forward to you.

    I've been unplugging, and road tripping across the country for the past few weeks, and re-sharing some of my most valuable episodes from the archive while I'm away.

  • [061] 5 Time-Based Reasons You're Burnt Out [ARCHIVE EPISODE]

    In week 3 of my archive series, where I'm re-sharing some of my most valuable episodes from the archive while I unplug on a honeymoon road trip across the country, I'm throwing it back to an episode from not that long ago.
