Dietitian Business Coaching
There are a lot of things you didn’t learn with your degree -
and how to be a health professional in business is definitely one of them.
And whether you’ve already worked with a coach, done an online program (or 2)
or just did a quick google search it can all feel pretty overwhelming.
Sometimes working with someone 1:1 who gets what you do and how you do it is just what you need.
Someone who will hold space for you in your business like you hold space for the humans you work with.
Hi, I’m Laura, a dietitian and business coach/facilitator/support-crew/cheerleader!
I’m here to support you to take the values you practice by into the how of doing business
so that you and the humans you work with can flourish.
As a dietitian or health professional, working with a dietitian who is also a business coach can have several benefits:
A shared understanding of the work you do - no need to explain what a weight inclusive dietitian or a pelvic floor physiotherapist is!
An understanding of professional ethics and legality relating to health spaces - I’m not a lawyer of course but having had my own dietitian business I understand the considerations and the very reality that there are just some things you can’t do eg. testimonials for Australian health professionals
An awareness of the disconnect between the values in the health space and those in the business space
Lived experience of running several iterations of a dietitian business - in person, online, pre-social media and everything in between.
Why hire a dietitian business coach?
What does working with a dietitian business coach look like?
There’s as many ways to be a coach as there are coaches - kinda like dietitians right?!
I consider my work as a facilitator, supporting you to take your business where you want to go (or helping you figure out where that is too!). I lead with a trauma informed, social justice oriented, consent driven approach.
A YOU driven approach.
If you want someone to tell you what to do, there are coaches like that out there, but I’m all about supporting you to cultivate trust in yourself, clarity in your values and grounding in your vision to create the business that works for you (learn more about me).
As for the nitty gritty - we would meet to chat, strategise and discuss all things via zoom or face-to-face if you happen to be in the Canberra region, at a frequency that works for you, your resources and your capacity.

No, you can come along for a single one off session or work together on an ongoing basis - fortnightly, 6 monthly or anything in between.
It’s very much ‘choose your own adventure’ AND similar to making changes to lifestyle and health behaviours there is a lot of benefit in working with someone over time for ongoing support.

You wont find any trickery or hiding of numbers behind a sign up form or mandatory sales call (although I do have free ‘good fit’ calls where we can see if we are…a good fit!).
Single 1:1 session $200 AUD
3 month coaching $1000 AUD
6 month coaching $2000 AUD
Payment plans are available for all at no additional cost and pay as you can options are available for individuals that are under-resourced and marginalised in our current systems.

My work is ‘you led’, I support you with what is front of mind in your business and where you want to go from here.
If it helps, here are a few examples of concerns or conundrums that have been brought to me:
‘Help, I don’t know if I want to be a dietitian anymore’
‘I can’t find a place for myself in dietetics’
‘Doing business seems out of line with my professional values’
‘I’m no good at marketing’
‘I’m not making enough money to be sustainable’
‘How can I find more clients?’
‘I want to grow my business without it taking over my life’
‘How can I do business and honour my social justice values?’
‘I’m burntout and I want to burn it all down!’
