You're stuck in the endless loop of "I'm not ready yet." You keep adding certifications, reading more books, and waiting for that magical moment when you'll finally feel confident enough to start your practice or raise your rates.

Here's the thing nobody tells you about that confidence you're waiting for: it's not coming. At least not in the way you think it will. Because confidence isn't something you acquire and then use - it's something you build through action. But there's something even more powerful than confidence that successful dietitians use to navigate uncertainty, connect with clients, and build thriving practices.

What if the very thing you think is holding you back, not knowing enough, not feeling ready, is actually your greatest business asset? What if curiosity, not confidence, is the secret weapon that transforms fear into freedom and doubt into discovery?

 

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

In this episode, I'm sharing why curiosity beats confidence every time when it comes to building a successful nutrition practice. This is for dietitians who are tired of waiting to feel "ready" and want to start taking action from a place of genuine engagement rather than manufactured confidence. 

Here’s the breakdown: 

• Why the confidence trap keeps you stuck in analysis paralysis and how to break free

• The neuroscience behind why curiosity and fear can't coexist (and how to use this to your advantage)

• How leading with curiosity makes you magnetic to ideal clients instead of trying to prove your expertise

• Three specific practices to cultivate curiosity in your business and client interactions

• Why curious dietitians naturally develop authentic confidence that doesn't depend on knowing all the answers

• The ripple effect of curiosity on your pricing, boundaries, and client attraction
