Dietitian Values

The Dietitian Values podcast is a space for conversations that go beyond lip speak, challenge the status quo and, bring us together to learn and unlearn in connection and community. Join me, Laura Jean Dietitian by trade and weirdo at heart, as I chat to insightful guests, brain dump my thoughts and start those kind of conversations where we'll probably end up with more questions than answers. Let's create a space for encouraging and inspiring accountable action.

How we define community, the values we think of it through and act into it by are important.

I recently read a post about the 'cost of community' and it didn't sit with my values for a couple of reasons - I want to chat it through in today's episode and offer up some thoughts on how we conceptualise community and cultivate it together.

In this episode: 

  • community doesn't have a cost
  • relating and community

As seasons being to shift here I thought I’d do a little check in episode.

I’m talking about:

  • my word of the year and where I’m at with that
  • life in my part-time job and my career aspirations (spoiler: they are to drink iced coffee on my deck)
  • What’s happening biz-wise as I continue to Bare-Ass-Minimum things
  • garden action as we near towards spring
  • bird chat - I know you are here for that!
  • and so much more….

Let’s dive in.

I've talked about the idea of relational inspiration on other eps but I think it deserves its own stand alone episode.

In this one I'll:

- define relational inspiration

- chat about how it can be used as a lens or space for grounding

- offer it up as an alternative to 3 different areas of status-quo building concepts that have never sat right with me, and maybe not for you either:

  •  Accountability
  • Role models
  • Social proof

Let's chat about critically analysing, grieving and leaving the status quo behind.

It's 2025, and I'm sick of seeing '1,2,3 step' formulas and just do these '3 things to make your first $1M' suggestions that are so surface level and so f*cking 2015!

It's beyond time to do things differently, and not just because the status quo success outcomes are only available to a select few, but because it&...

Burnout doesn't have to be inevitable - but it can be, if you are cooking with this recipe:

Take your finite time, capacity & resourcing, add in a cupful of extra things to do and sprinkle on some overwhelm and anxiety...and you've got the perfect recipe for burnout.

But seriously, let's chat burnout and what will get you there quicker than you can say 'dinner's ready'!

Whether you're in burnout,...

Does a to-do list serve you?

Today I want to offer up some questions and some space to get curious around the good old to-do list, how it's serving you an perhaps if it is at all (or at least in its current iteration)

A tool is only as much use in your business as it is useful to you.

It feels topical, dare I say seasonal, to talk about season as we transition from summer to autumn, winter to spring, or between dry/wet depending where you are in the world.

It offers a moment to pause and notice. To observe how the seasons and their transitions impact you and how you interplay with the seasons.

And of course seasons aren't just related to those of the natural ecosystem around us - they can refer to the life st...

Do you 'should' on yourself?

Do you place obligations of correctness onto your actions or criticise them based on a cultural definition of correctness?

Well, you should stop that! Just kidding....

In this episode I'm chatting about the habit of 'shoulding'. Sharing why it's a red flag in your relationship with yourself and your values and encourage you to take the opportunity to get curious and get critic...

When things are in a state of change we can often feel pulled to move back to 'business as usual'

But what even is business as usual? Who does it benefit? And does it take you where you want to go?

We're chatting all that and more in this ep.

There are a lot of values disconnects and tension points at the best of times when running a values grounded business inside a status-quo upholding business system.

And these 'unprecedented' times continue to add more tension.

Tension can be uncomfortable AND it also holds possibility (h/t James Olivia Chui Hillman).

Where are the opportunities to wrap words around what you are feeling and processing. Firstly as a support fo...

Knowing your values is one thing, checking in with your business and it's alignment with your values is a whole other thing.

In todays episode I want to chat to you about carrying out a values audit. Don't worry, it's not as scary as it sounds. Basically a temperature check of where your business is in relation to your values.

Let's talk hope. Not as a wish or desire but as a grounding in your values, a commitment to act into those values and an embracing of the unknowable future.

I want to talk about hope, an antidote for the shit show that is the world right now and a tangible space to take action from. A tool for business and a call to start co-creating a different kind of world.

As a new calendar year begins what are you deciding: more of the same or actually different?

The thing is, you get to choose. If you want things to be different, if you want to be co-creating a different kind of world what are you deciding to do about it?

And once you decide...

What action(s) do you need to follow through on your commitment to actually doing things differently in your business? And what s...
