3 signs your sessions are quietly draining you (even if you love your work):

• You walk out realizing you forgot to ask something important
• You run over time… again
• You’re writing notes at 10pm, trying to remember what actually happened

None of this means you’re a bad dietitian.
It usually means you’re holding too much in your head.

When you’re early in private practice (or just juggling a lot), sessions can feel like a constant improv act:
listening deeply, tracking details, thinking ahead, staying present, all at once.

That cognitive load adds up.

That’s why I created my Simple Session Framework checklists for RDs.
Not to make sessions rigid, but to give you something steady to lean on so your energy can stay with the client (and with yourself).

Structure doesn’t make sessions less human.
It makes them more sustainable.

Dietitians are trained to assess, diagnose, and intervene.
That structure can feel steady, especially early in practice.

But many clinicians reach a moment where the formulas stop landing the way they once did.

Not because clients are resistant.
Not because the evidence is wrong.
But because real lives don’t move in straight lines.

Bodies carry history.
Behavior exists inside systems.
And health is shaped by far more than any protocol can hold.

When this shift happens, it can feel unsettling. Like the ground moving under your clinical confidence.

But it’s not failure.
It’s awareness.

And learning to sit with that complexity (ather than rushing to fix it) is a skill most of us were never taught.

This is the work beneath the work.

This is why supervision matters, not as a credential, but as care.

Most dietitians would never intend to cause harm.
But intention isn’t the same as impact.

We practice inside a culture that:
rewards “discipline”
praises restriction as virtue
confuses eating disorders with “healthy habits”

Without support, it’s easy to unknowingly collude with systems that hurt, even when our values are solid.

Supervision creates space to:
slow down
question the narratives we’ve absorbed
notice where good intentions might still cause harm

And when clients feel heard, validated, and truly understood?
They stay.
They trust.
They tell others.

Not because of marketing.
But because of safety.

This is the kind of work that protects both clinicians and the people they serve.

As this year closes, there’s a lot of noise telling you to reflect harder, resolve more, and decide what you’ll change next.

Here’s a quieter truth:

You don’t need to have clarity right now.
You don’t need to “reset” your body or your habits.
You don’t need to make meaning out of everything you’ve lived through.

Whether you’re supporting clients through this season or moving through it yourself, gentleness is not avoidance.
It’s regulation.
It’s care.
It’s often the most ethical place to stand.

You’re allowed to end the year exactly as you are.
And begin the next one without urgency.

You deserve to have a peaceful relationship with food this holiday season.

If you are worried about how much sugar you consume, here’s a little truth bomb for you.

Even though studies show that only those consuming sugar at “high intake” levels have any cardiovascular risk, Most studies don’t agree on what “high intake” means.

But because our brains tend to think in all-or-nothing terms, we start to believe that ANY amount of sugar is too much. When we think of a specific food as “bad” or “too much,” we often feel guilt and shame about eating it.

Guilt and shame around a food are not going to help you avoid the food in the future.

So, stop chasing arbitrary cutoffs and beating yourself up.

When we start tuning in to our body, eating starts to feel much more peaceful. And we could all use a little more peace this holiday season.  If you want support finding a way of eating that feels grounded and flexible instead of rule-based, you can book a discovery call. Whether you’re a client or an RD wanting help navigating this nuance in your own work, I’m here to help.

You do not need to choose between being fully body positive or secretly wishing some things felt different.

You do not need to choose between honoring your values and honoring your lived experience.

You can move into the new year with nuance, care, and gentleness for yourself and the people you serve.

Both can be true.
And both deserve compassion.

Most of us were trained to look for mentors who look like us.
Same age. Same body. Same identity. Same aesthetic. Same “professional vibe.”

It feels safe. Familiar. Comfortable.

But as I shared in my latest podcast interview:

“Learning from someone who doesn’t look like you is key.”

Because when we only learn within our own reflection, we unintentionally limit what we believe is possible, for ourselves and for our clients.

The dietetics field still skews young, thin, and homogenous.
That’s not a moral failing.
It’s a systemic pattern.

And when all of your teachers, supervisors, and peers look the same, you can absorb ideas like:

“This is what a ‘healthy body’ looks like.”
“This is what a successful RD looks like.”
“This is how I’m supposed to sound, show up, or take up space.”

But expansion happens when we learn from people whose identities, bodies, backgrounds, and lived experiences differ from our own.

It challenges the defaults we absorbed in training.
It widens our understanding of care.
It deepens the way we see the humans sitting across from us.

If this resonates, I talk more about this on my recent interview with , including what true professional growth looks like outside the mainstream mold.

This time of year, clients say things that sound like backsliding… but they’re really bids for safety.

“I’ve given up dieting, but I’m nervous to see family who haven’t seen me since I gained weight.”
“Maybe I should go back on WW just to get through the holidays.”
“I’m okay with my body… but my aunt/grandma/mom will definitely comment.”

These aren’t signs of resistance.
They’re signs of someone bracing for impact.
Someone trying to stay regulated in environments that taught them to distrust their bodies in the first place.

As weight-inclusive providers, these are the moments where compassion, not correction, does the real work.

If you want more support navigating the nuance and emotion of holiday-triggered food + body conversations, DM HOLD SPACE and I’ll share what supervision can look like for you.

If you’re supporting clients through the holidays, share this with another provider who’s also choosing gentleness over guilt this season.

Or drop a 🌿 if you’re ready for a more grounded, weight-inclusive holiday.

Wouldn’t it be nice if all our thoughts were good ones? Automatic negative thoughts are unavoidable, but that doesn’t mean we need to follow them down a rabbit hole! Don’t make the mistake of thinking that body acceptance means never having a negative body thought. Thoughts are not facts, they are just your brain doing its job. The work is in getting curious about the thought and neutralizing the thought with compassion. Want support so you can support your clients in this work? DM me and ask about my services.

If this season brings up guilt, frustration, or confusion, pause before labeling it a failure.
You’re not starting over, you’re simply noticing more.
Awareness is progress, even when it feels uncomfortable.
So whether you’re sitting in supervision or sitting at the holiday table, remember:
Your relationship with food is allowed to be human. Layered, evolving, and deeply personal.
And you don’t have to navigate it alone.

💬 Drop SUPPORT if you’d like my guidance on navigating these conversations, for yourself or your clients, this season.

The real superpower of IE? Over time, candy becomes less of a big deal. When food isn’t forbidden, it stops holding so much power. You can choose candy when it sounds good, and just as easily choose something else when it doesn’t. You’ve learned to trust your body’s wisdom and your body knows you have her back!
