34+ Tools to Grow Your Nutrition Business

 The RD Entrepreneur Symposium – Coming Sept 24!

 

Do something that you deem valuable or powerful 🤝 Do something that you deem valuable or powerful 🤝 imposter syndrome

Why is this?

If you have ever felt like you don’t deserve your achievements, then take this as your reminder to save this post to come back to next time those intrusive thoughts kick in. 🔖

Here’s how to get out of your own head about your amazing accomplishments:

🧠 Acknowledge the Thoughts

Recognize when imposter feelings are settling in. It’s the first step to addressing them.

🔄 Reframe Your Mind

Turn negative thoughts into positive ones. Instead of saying "I just got lucky," try "I'm fortunate, and I also work hard."

💬 Talk About It

Share your feelings with trusted friends or mentors (PS, in The Society we have an open door policy and welcome anyone to share their thoughts around the topic).

🎉 Celebrate Your Successes

Keep a record of your achievements and positive feedback. Look back on it when you need a boost.

🚫 Stop the Comparison Game

Everyone’s path is unique. Focus on your journey, not where others are in theirs.

Let's get out of that "I'm an imposter space" and into action space - grab your seat at the RD Entrepreneur Symposium to level up and thrive as a RD business owner. LInk in bio.

🌟 Ever feel like clinical work gets a bad rap? Let 🌟 Ever feel like clinical work gets a bad rap? Let's set the record straight: disliking clinical isn’t why I dove into building my own business. (But if that’s your reason, that’s cool too!) 🚀

Clinical dietitians are more important than ever and their work is crucial. My journey into entrepreneurship wasn’t about dissing clinical roles; it was about finding the freedom and flexibility *I* needed. 📈✨

For me, it was all about having hours that fit around my kids, choosing my work times, and breaking up my day to stay productive. But hating clinical wasn't part of it (ok the crappy basement "office" without windows didn't help). Yes, I miss the challenge and the brainpower boost from clinical work (and maybe the occasional daily interaction 😜), but the choice was about crafting a work-life that works for *me* in this current stage of life.

If you’re dreaming of creating your own work environment, it’s not too late! Join us at the RD Entrepreneur Symposium and start building a career that fits your life. 💪💼 Link in bio for ino.

Did you start your own business to get stuck in th Did you start your own business to get stuck in the same dreadful thing day after day, year after year? Spoiler alert: NO ❌🙅‍♀️⁠⁠
⁠⁠
You probably started for the exact opposite reason: the freedom to do something you LOVE every single day, day in, day out. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Not stuck in monotony. Not doing tasks you dread. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Feeling lit up and inspired.⚡️💥⁠⁠
⁠⁠
So what if the business you started with starts to go down that path… you’re no longer on fire with passion, ready to dive in each morning. You’re feeling burnt out at the end of the day. You find yourself feeling lackluster about what you’re doing and who you’re serving. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Might be time for a change - and I don’t mean going back to “work”.🤔⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Maybe it’s time for a little pivoting (PIVOT!). Not drastic, not 180 - just a little shift inside your business.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Maybe you need to:⁠⁠
🔹 serve the same client in a different way⁠⁠
🔹 serve a different client in the same way⁠⁠
🔹 add on a service⁠⁠
🔹 take away a service⁠⁠
🔹 change how much of YOU is in your offer⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I love BTS peeks at people’s real life experiences, so here’s the path my business has followed (and where my income has come from) over the past 14ish years (see slide 2).
⁠⁠
If I had forced myself into the “1:1 counseling only” box I would’ve quit years ago.
⁠⁠
Have you ever felt like you needed a change but held yourself back because you didn't think you "should"? Tell me in the comments ⬇️⁠⁠

Repeat after me: There's NOTHING wrong with not lo Repeat after me: There's NOTHING wrong with not loving 1:1. That doesn't mean you can't still work for yourself!💥

I stumbled into the world of entrepreneurship years ago - I had no intentions of starting my own business until suddenly it was in my lap and then that's all I wanted to do for the rest of my career. And I didn't see clients 1:1 until yearssssss into my owning my own business as a RD.

That's the beauty of entrepreneurship. There are no rules. YOU are building the roadmap. YOU are designing your own business model.

You love in depth, deep 1:1 work? Go for it!

⚡️You don't love it? Maybe it burns you out. Maybe it drains your energy. Maybe you have small kids at home and can't be dependent on someone else's schedule or set appointment times. (🙋‍♀️)

That doesn't mean being your own boss is out the window. There are SO many possibilities to create your own career as a RD. Here are just a handful of ideas:

👉blogging (get paid with ads or partnerships)
👉workshops (online or in person)
👉group programs (reach a bunch of people at the same time - you pick the time)
👉online courses (behind the scenes work; on your schedule)
👉writing (for other RDs, companies, brands, worksites)
👉brand rep (be a brand's spokesperson, through blogging, writing, speaking, conventions, events)
👉corporate wellness (work with companies' employees, consults, workshops, presentations)
👉media rep (be on tv)
👉speaking (conferences, events)

...or any combination of the above.

This is just scratching the surface of possibility.🔑

Can you guess what all of these “mistakes” have in Can you guess what all of these “mistakes” have in common?

Lack of action. ☝️

Not doing anything because you’re worried about XYZ is the worst thing you can do for your business.

The whole point in navigating entrepreneurship is that we get to make our own rules and carve our own path.

The path isn’t perfect, but it’s a path forward and we get to learn along the way.

So if you can take anything away from this post, it would be that action is power. 💪
