  • Wish More Referrals Turned Into Clients? Start Here!
    Sep 9 2025

    In today’s world, dietitians, fitness coaches, and wellness experts can’t rely solely on word-of-mouth if they want to attract better clients or charge what they’re worth, especially when an outdated website or zero online presence is holding you back.

    In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the referral rollercoaster and showing you how to blend trusted recommendations with smart SEO strategy. We’ll talk about why referrals are gold (but risky if you put all your eggs in that basket), how your website and Google presence can amplify your reputation, and clear steps to make sure clients can find you—and actually want to reach out—after hearing your name.

    This is also the last episode of BrandWhys, but come listen to The Ordinary Business podcast starting in October!

  • Why You’re Getting Website Traffic But No Inquiries
    Aug 12 2025

    If you’ve poured energy into blog posts, SEO, or Instagram—but your inbox is still crickets—you’re not alone. Most health and fitness pros feel that sting: great content, steady traffic, yet zero inquiries from those dream clients.

    In today’s episode, I’m getting real about why traffic alone isn’t paying the bills and what to do when your website feels more like a ghost town than an active client magnet. I’ll break down conversion rates, the impact of irrelevant content (that viral cupcake recipe just isn’t the lead magnet you hoped for), and the three must-fix elements that turn browsers into clients ready to book their next wellness session.

    You’ll learn how to audit your own site, nail down messaging that speaks to your ideal client, and set up the kind of calls-to-action that make it easy for people to say, “Yes, I need this.”

    Whether you’re reworking your brand or just tired of being overlooked online, these strategic shifts will help you grow your authority—and fill your calendar with clients who value your expertise.

  • When to Trademark Your Wellness Brand with Sarah Waldbuesser
    Jul 1 2025

    Ever get a little nervous that someone might swoop in and grab your perfect program name or copy your hard-earned brand? You’re not alone! For health and fitness professionals building authority online—whether you’re a nutritionist, fitness coach, or wellness pro—the legal side of branding (trademarks and copyrights) can feel confusing and intimidating, but it’s absolutely essential if you want to stand out and protect everything you’ve built.

    This episode is all about trademarks, copyrights, and what every dietitian, wellness coach, or fitness professional really needs to know before investing big time (and dollars!) in your next podcast, signature program, or killer new brand.

    I sat down with trademark attorney Sarah Waldbuesser to get real about protecting your content, figuring out when to trademark, and how to avoid a last-minute gut punch if you ever get a cease-and-desist letter.

    • Stop second-guessing and do your due diligence before launching anything new—run those essential checks to safeguard your brand and avoid messy rebrands down the road.

  • How Sara Attracted Higher-Paying Clients for Her Nutrition Practice
    Jun 24 2025

    Your current brand may have fit in the past, but if you’re dreaming of reaching premium clients and ditching those lengthy “sales” calls, a rebrand might be your next power move.

    In this episode, I’m chatting with Sara Morrison—a seasoned dietitian who transitioned from a well-intentioned “pediatric dietitian” brand to a confident position as an anti-inflammatory expert for clients of all ages.

    Sara (aspiringsprouts.com) shares what really happens when you step into the work you’re meant to do, the roadblocks of letting go, and why bringing in outside support (yes, both a coach and a designer) is a game changer for nutritionists, trainers, and wellness pros ready to boldly claim their space online.

    We’ll dig into how Sara knew it was time to pivot, lessons learned from blending new services with a love for her original niche, and the surprising way her sales calls almost disappeared after an updated brand and website. Plus, you’ll hear practical tips on making your website do the heavy lifting—so clients reach out ready to hire you, not quiz you.

  • Is AI or Your Website Making the First Impression?
    Jun 17 2025

    With AI and directories popping up everywhere, I get why it’s tempting to let your site take a back seat. But for health and fitness pros, from dietitians to personal trainers, your website isn’t just a calling card—it’s the heart of your client journey.

    In this episode, I’m sharing why a personal website matters more than ever, even with the rise of AI and those endless “find a coach” directories.

    We’ll talk about what your website really needs to do for you, how to make sure you’re not just another face in the crowd, and the exact steps you can take to make your site stand out (without ever sounding like a robot). If you’re ready to attract high-quality clients and finally get off the social media hamster wheel, this one’s for you.
