Does This Sound Familiar?
There's nothing more frustrating than knowing everything your patient needs, preparing a 27 page handout packet for them and then wondering why they never seem to pay attention to all your good advice.
You know that you should be blazing through these nutrition educations -- inspiring your patients, teaching them how to make healthy choices, changing their lives. Maybe you've even tried the minimalist approach with just a simple handout and not much chit chat, instead of a long lecture and a whole packet of relevant research.
But it's still not working.
You thought the hard part was going to landing a dietetic internship. But it turns out that was just the beginning, and now you feel like you must be missing something. Other dietitians make it look easy, but for you, it's been anything but easy.
You're not alone. Most new dietitians are missing something.
The truth is that we don't really learn to BE a dietitian in school. We don't learn the skills to keep patients engaged, get them excited, and even help them become more committed to their goals.
But what if there was a way to make sure you got it right?
Hey! I'm Shani, MS RD CDCES.
I want to help you use the nutrition knowledge you already have, to excel at doing clinical nutrition educations.
I've worked in clinical nutrition for over 10 years doing everything from acute care to clinical counseling to teaching my grad classes in nutrition. And I want to share with you what took me years to learn.
Doing clinical nutrition counseling doesn't have to be scary or difficult. And with Nutrition Quick Chats it won't be.
You'll learn to use your clinical knowledge to immediately benefit your patients, so you can get straight to the business of being a great RD.

Reviews With Love
"My clinical preceptor told me to just get into the patient room and get out, but never gave me any practical ways of moving through the conversation with them, and that was such a huge part that frustrated me! It made me not want to even speak to patients because I knew it wasn’t going anywhere. Thank you so much for making this! I just love it!"
-Sarah H., RD2BE
"This is a great course. I wish more schools exclusively offered a class that was titled MI for RDs. I commend you for taking the time to create such a valuable resource. As someone who’s purchased MI books, they’re often really daunting. I think this project is incredible. This is one of my concerns being a good communicator and work through some of these interactions.”
–Yaa B. MS RD2BE
"I love how realistic everything in this course is. The case studies and the quizzes are exactly the kind of thing I see at work and being able to work through those here makes everything I do with my patients so much easier. I started seeing my patients paying way more attention to what I was saying after I finished the first week! I'd recommend this to any dietitian!"
–Jennifer K., MS RD
