Registered Dietitian Gains Counseling Confidence and Community Support to Grow Business

So, before Nutritious Life studio, I would say, my one-on-one counseling company was kind of at a standstill. I felt like I had the knowledge for nutrition but I did not have the counseling confidence. So, I think creating that atmosphere of having a group of people to talk to, helped with that. Also having Keri as somebody you can reach out to and ask specific questions if you get stuck with a particular client, is huge. I think initially the cost probably scared me. It was the first, like, online health education outside of college that I did. And then I decided it was a great investment in myself and if I really wanted my company to take off I needed to start investing in myself, in the company and how to counsel better. I was so thankful I did it. I to have to say, the masterclass, the first time I skipped it. And then I heard everybody talk about it and I was like, ugh, how did I miss this? So I definitely did the next one and it's a world of difference. It's one thing to connect online but doing the masterclass and seeing everybody in person, is just a huge difference. And I'm going again this year. I know there'll be new topics and speakers. It's the confidence that it gives you in counseling. As a registered dietitian, I've obviously done the schoolwork and I have the base knowledge but they don't teach us how to counsel, how to problem solve when you come against somebody that isn't textbook, you can't look it up. Whereas this program gives you so many tools to help. And if you can't find it in the material provided for you, there's so many ways to reach out live to people and get the help assistance that you need. I feel like I'm confident, I can take on any client and I know if I can't figure iout I have a community to reach out to help me. I think what surprised me the most would be the community. I wasn't expecting that. And especially Keri's support. I think we think of Keri Glassman, like, you see her on TV. I just remember looking up who she was and everything she's done and I was like, ahhhhhhh, she's like this nutrition angel. Like, she's way up there. But she's so real and down to earth and if you're stuck you can just reach out and you send her an email. And if she can't help you with it, she knows somebody who can or she connects you with people. The community within the group is amazing and I wasn't expecting that. I was just thinking, oh I'll go through this great course, I'll get the information and knowledge that I need for myself. The community outreach has been amazing. It's really, I think, the top part of being a part of this. And it doesn't finish, either. So, like, once you've done the course and then I did the next set of courses, you're still a part of the community. There's no end date which is pretty amazing. I think it's just that personal touch. The information that's provided in person is amazing. And the access to these speakers that she pulls together for you, to gain the knowledge from and then you get their contact information. Like, So many of them I reached out to afterwards, if I had a client that was specific to that topic and I might have been stuck about something, you had access to them. And then, I think, just the bonding within the team. The Nutritious Life team of students was amazing. So, I think if you're thinking about joining, definitely come. It is such a difference in the way you learn the information. You're sitting, in person, you can ask your questions in the moment. The speakers are top of their industries so having access to ask your immediate questions and then on top of that, the bonding and the fun that you have with the classmates that are there. So the unexpected, I think, was the access you have to Keri and the experts that she brings in. As big as she is, you would think she just has her name on the program but this program is "her." and that is just amazing to experience somebody still like that. I think if you are thinking to do health coaching or nutrition coaching that this is a great place to start and honestly, finish. I haven't done any other courses. Like, this is it for me. The resources you have, what she teaches you, the material that is in the classes that you actually take outside of masterclass, which is in person, is top notch. Nutrition is a tough field because it's constantly changing. There's constantly new information or new research or what you thought was true last year is no longer true because the research has proven it otherwise, And Keri's program is on top of that. You constantly are updated. You don't have to know, find your own newsfeed and continue to scroll and try to figure out, oh, what's new today? That information is provided for you which is amazing. It saves you so much time if if this is what you want to do with your life. Eileen Hsiung. I'm in Orange County, California and I'm a registered dietitian that does one-on-one nutrition counseling.
