24. Tips on Becoming a Dietitian and Growing a Successful Business with Jenny Westercamp

Everyone has their reason for getting into the world of dietetics, and it's always interesting to hear what sparked them on their journey! What's even better is when dietitians work hard to solve the future of dietetics by running their own businesses and changing industry practices for the better.   In today's episode, I talked to Jenny Westerkamp, a registered dietician as well as the founder of All Access Dietetics and team nutritionist for the Chicago Bulls. Since creating All Access Dietetics at 21, she has impacted the nutrition world as an entrepreneur and as a sports dietitian.    During our conversation, Jenny talks about why she became a dietician, and how her passion was sparked by her love for Doritos! She shares her experience getting hired by the Chicago Bulls, why running her own business takes a lot of blood sweat, and tears and why you have to embrace the fear and do it anyway.     In this episode, we cover: Why Doritos is the reason Jenny is a dietician and how that led her to become a sports dietician  [3:26] Creating her own company All Access Dietetics and what is takes to run a business [8:03] The real value of hiring a dietician and why you should be friends with fear [19:47] How to become a dietician in 2 years [27:02] The best tips you need to really stand out in the field [34:17] Jenny shares how to get an internship preceptor and a post-grad job [37:38] How to pass the RD exam [42:36]   Connect with Jenny: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allaccessdietetics/    https://www.instagram.com/jennywesterkamp/    Website: https://www.allaccessdietetics.com/      Connect with Deanna: IG: @dietitiandeanna Website: https://dietitiandeanna.com  This episode is sponsored by This episode is sponsored by Food Freedom Breakthrough, my three month transformative online group coaching program.
