Dietitian Values

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.

You know your values and how you want to show up in them. 

But what happens when you're stressed, unsure or confused? 

What happens when you are moving out of  familiarity and into something new and different like say  business/private practice?

Whose values show up then? 

Today we're talking about default values.

Let's dive in.

In today's episode I'm chatting about my word for the year and a few other things going on.

I generally start with focussing on how I want to feel and how I want to show up for myself and my life and then I like to choose a word that supports me to go after that.

A word for the year isn't essential - as always, take what you need and leave what you don't.

This question is a great one for both reflection and planning if you are up to that at this time of the year.

It's supportive when looking at the big picture view - whose kind of world does my business cultivate. And when looking at smaller day to day decisions - whose kind of world does it cultivate if I say yes/no?

The world we have, the culture we are swimming in, doesn't just happen 'over there' or 'by th...

Before you start planning for 2026...

Before you make decisions....

Before you celebrate...

Ground in your values first.

Why? How? In aid of what?

Let's chat about exactly that in today's episode.

The end of a calendar year is nigh and the desire to look forward and get started planning is high.

The business coaches are getting loud with their 'make 2026 the x year ever' and perhaps you are are ready to leave 2025 behind.

BUT....before we rush forward I've got a little pause point for you. I'm planting a seed for both reflection and grounding first.

What are you going to do about i?

Enough: as much as required.

We've talked about defining your enough in your business (and life of course because that's where your biz is nested). But how do you actually start moving towards a life and business that is enough?

That's exactly what we're up to in this episode - we'll dream, grab the data, critcally analyse shit and make a plan to do things differently and cultivate your enough-ful life.

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!

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'!

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....
