The Dietitian Success Podcast | Business & Marketing for Dietitians

Hey! Welcome back to the podcast, I’m so thrilled to have you here for episode 38 - how to build expertise. I’m your host, Krista Kolodziejzyk, fellow dietitian, business coach and founder of the Dietitian Success Center Inc. 

In this episode, we are going to talk about building expertise - how do we learn more about something that we are passionate about? How do we get to a point that we feel comfortable seeing clients or doing work in a specific area? How do we feel like less of an imposter in our own profession? 

I will walk you through a 5-step blueprint that you can use to fill in your knowledge gaps when it comes to working with your dream population.

In my FINAL episode of the podcast (Season 1), I am spilling the tea on EXACTLY how this year went for me and my biz… 

In this episode, I go through what happened in my biz (and life) month by month. We’re talking about: 

• The real life of an entrepreneur - what did my life ‘actually’ look like behind the IG pics?
• How I started the year by making $150/month on my side hustle and where I ended up at the end of it (a lot can change in a year!) 
• The story of how I got engaged 
• Plus, tons more HIGHS and LOWS (fired from my first ‘real’ freelance job… ahem)
