Have you ever worked with a dietitian or nutritionist before? How was your experience?

[@debraraby4376]

Dear Shanon, you look about 12! I cannot believe how much that you have achieved in your young life. Since I came across your channel for the first time in a long time I feel that I can improve my health. You are such an inspiration, thank you.

[@nourishcenter]

Thank you so much for your kind words! While I am not actually 12 years old 😂, I appreciate your compliment and I'm glad that I can inspire you to improve your health. That's exactly why I started my channel, to help others achieve their health goals and live their best lives. If there are any specific topics you'd like me to cover, let me know and I'll do my best to address them in future videos. Thanks again! 😊🙏🏽

@@nourishcenter I know I didn’t find your channel by chance. I will actually be completing an AS in Business but now realize that I really want to pursue Nutrition instead. I think I basically have to start at square one again so I’m a little discouraged 🫤

[@nourishcenter]

@@CallaLily40 for as long as you are living you have the opportunity to go after new goals and start afresh. Listen, within the next 5-6 years you can get both a bachelor and masters degree, AND be well on your way to become a dietitian, if you’re interested in going that route. Wouldn’t that be amazing? Don’t be discouraged. Be encouraged to be greater. Your future self will thank you. Trust me. You KNOW you got this, Calla!

[@CallaLily40]

@@nourishcenter thank you for the encouragement! I’m just praying for God’s direction and trusting in His plan for my life. Your affirmation is a blessing to me!

[@syamadisa182]

Thanks much for sharing the RDN admission process, full vedio was helpful information. Thanks. Do you have any recommendations that what masters should I enroll to become a registered dietitian, lot of school offer nutrition or public health with RD programs. If you could recommend any school please. Thanks

[@nourishcenter]

I’d look into a coordinated program that allows you to get your masters and RD at the same time. That’s what I did. It’s very intense but can save you a lot of time instead of going through the masters first, then going through all the requirements to become an RD (coursework, 1,000 unpaid internship hours, exam, etc.). Hope that helps!
