Nutritionist in Private Practice ― Lessons Learned from My First Year in Business

Nutritionist in Private Practice is a must have resource for the registered dietitian, nutrition student, dietetic intern, nutritionist or health coach who someday dreams of having their own business. Get the inside story of what it took for one nutritionist to leave behind the 40 hour work week and salaried paycheck to transition into self employment. The mysterious world of private practice that is not typically part of nutrition curriculum is unveiled through the perspective of one person who has successfully made the transition and built a nutrition business using her own resources. Popular topics such as whether or not to take insurance, having a website, developing programs, networking and marketing and balancing responsibilities of everyday life are discussed in honest detail as the author takes you through her journey in the first year on her own. The writing style is conversation and frank, providing a glimpse into the life of a real person entering the world of entrepreneurship. The reader is provided with a tale of human experience rather than just a handbook of instructions.
