25.01.2022 Entrepreneurship is about leading from the front and working harder than anyone else in the team. That is the type of leader I have always tried to be. This does not mean I never see another human, never see a friend, go for a surf or play football. But I could not tell you a weekend in the last 8 years that I never did an ounce of work. Especially not in the last 4 years of Fuel Your Life. When you average over 90hrs a week, taking 2 hours doesn’t take too much away from the... amount of work you can get done. And for me, I generally try to make up for it ASAP. It isn’t a necessity, nothing is. I make the choice. Achieving the goal of continued growth, improvement and developing the greatest dietetics organisation of all time keeps me going. Makes me interested in never resting. Motivates me in ways that prevent the stop. I like the pressure. I like the challenge. You don’t have to love working as much as I do, at all. But if you want success, you will likely have to sacrifice some things. The more you want to achieve, and the sooner you want to achieve it, the more you likely have to sacrifice. The thing about this though, is that it never feels like much of a sacrifice because you are working towards what you truly want. Would you be willing to work 90 hrs a week, every week for 5 years to get to where you want to go? Be honest. P.S It isn’t essential that you would need to, or that you should want to. Just speak your truth. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
24.01.2022 *NEW* How They Do Business podcast, out now. What defines a good employee? And how do I reward employees who are performing well? This is a really great question and it’s something we put a heavy emphasis on within our organisation. Being a good employee is not always about who is bringing in the most money, or the greatest results it’s ALSO about being some of the things that I mention in this podcast. That is why when we give awards, we give awards for performance, as wel...l as things like engagement and support. But, you can hear more from the inner workings of my brain at the link below. https://podcasts.apple.com//how-they-do-busin/id1493334039 #podcast #business #businesstips #managingstaff #rewards #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
23.01.2022 When it comes to hiring friends and/or family, I’ve done both. It just depends on the situation, but in any case, you just need to establish what the relationship is going to be like from the start. As long as you have a decent, healthy level of respect, and you are able to give them feedback and instructions without ego (and they receive it similarly), it’s possible. Have you ever hired friends/family? Tell me your experience in the comments.... #friends #family #hiring #HR #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
23.01.2022 Felt cute, might delete later. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
20.01.2022 This is the value of work experience! Last year, I saw this woman here on the Sunshine Coast who saw me in my undergrad (12 years ago), when I hadn’t even gone into my Masters’ yet, taking names before a conference on a Saturday morning. She told me that she thought to herself, shit, he’s keen, and said that’s kind of why I ended up where I am now. Anyone else ever been remembered from their work experience/volunteer days?... #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
20.01.2022 Same week every year on this day I do this. Determine success and failure of last year, then make goals and post them publically for accountability. I do this for me. 2020 Goals: - Diversify income streams for the company - Finish renos on my house and get ready to sell (but will rent)... - Solidify leadership team for company - Increase revenue 30% - Run at least 1 private practice course - Sell at least 100 practitioner kits - Increase international presence - Interview at least 12 people for podcast "How They Do Business" - Become a recognised national partner with another large organisation - Promote at least 5 people - Hire at least 10 more dietitians - Develop own food product - Increase Fuel Your Life sites to `300 in Australia - Finalise new dev product ( #fuckers) - Be an invited speaker >2 events - Hold at least 4 @dietitian.life meet-ups - Get to Grand Final with new football team - Continue to unapologetically stay true to who I am - Continue to love what I do for a living and my dedication to it SNEAKY EXTRAS ACHIEVED: - Sporting contracts with Melb Storm, Melb Victory, Brisbane Roar - International Euro, English and US sporting clubs seeking FYL for parternship and sports dietetics Overall, decent year. COVID certainly made the focus more on what we had - especially staff. However pushing hard into the sporting space at the end of the year certainly has taken a lot of my attention also. That success has been amazing. 2021 Goals: - Buy and move into my dream house (In 2016 I gave myself 5 years to achieve it. My time is up.) - Get at least 100% ROI on sport contracts for Fuel Your Life - Run at least 1 x Private Practice course with Dietitian Life - Increase revenue by >30% - Diversify income stream for the company - Promote at least 5 more people - Be an invited speaker to at least 2 events - Secure overseas work - Increase exposure of FYL cooking show and @dietitian.life resources to build the dietetics industry - Win an award - Get the COVID vaccine for my company - Have staff across country increase their connection with each other - Win Grand final #goals #newyear #dietitian #entrepreneur
20.01.2022 If you want to know how I got here, I tell you now it was not by taking a shortcut or the easy route. I worked hard and continue to do so every single day I can. In dietetics, I learned every aspect I could through university, did as much work experience as I possibly could on top of that, worked in every job I could, went to every conference and seminar I could afford (and putting this above ANYTHING else), and explored every career possibility. Then when it came to busin...ess, I invested every cent (which wasn’t many, so it was mostly time) I had in acquiring the knowledge I needed. I read all the processes, guidelines, insurance documents, everything. I learned contract law, tax law, accounting principles, employment law, every boring arse document you can think of - I lived and breathed for the first three years. I did it all myself and I wouldn't recommend that for all of you (as you can fuck up big time and not everyone’s brain works that way but I did it my way, by myself, without investors, with a shoestring budget, with a lack of sleep, lack of social life, but I did it. I did it, and I am proud of that. Tell you what, shortcuts do look fucking enticing. And if I knew that I could have learnt a bunch of shortcuts from someone who had done it before (who I liked and respected), I would have likely done it. But that isn’t how it happened for me. Do I think I could help a shit tonne of dietitians and people in business now? 100% I do. So I now get that perspective, but also no one has ever achieved what we have been able to. So maybe their shortcuts wouldn’t have allowed me to think differently and achieve what we have?... I guess we will never know What do you think? Is a shortcut a good move? Would you want to learn from me how to be more successful in dietetics or business? Let me know. #hardwork #success #noshortcuts #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
17.01.2022 Not everyone is destined to manage staff. That’s the first thing. People keep thinking that management is the only way up, but there are plenty of ways that someone can be a manager without managing staff. How I chose those people? Well, they have to be doing their base role better than average. Then I give them a taste of other roles and really identify the pathways for development like that. You can hear more about it in the video though.... Are you the kind of person that would want to 1 manage staff? Or 2 progress in other ways? Comment and tell me. #manager #staff #hiring #hr #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
17.01.2022 Long days, late nights, weekends are nothing compared to what success means to me. I will do whatever it takes for my organisation, for my staff and for the future of our industry. I'm not saying I don't enjoy having a life outside of work, but I literally love what I do for a living and I will stop at nothing to keep growing this organisation bigger and better every day. Are you passionate about your job? If not, what needs to change? Ask yourself and then tell me in t...he comments. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
16.01.2022 Breathe, we good. This month has been hectic. Finally flying to see my team in North Queensland (and hopefully other states soon). Shadowing, individual meetings, team dinner and a couple of MASSIVE business meetings in a HECTIC schedule. Sometimes the chaos does become a lot for the brain and body. When there are fires burning in the background that you have to put out while trying to keep your game face on for the immediate task It’s a lot. But nothing replaces the feeling... of holy shit for how well we have done in our short time. It’s all worth it in the long run. Do you have those holy shit moments that make all the hard work worth it? P.S Seeing out logo on the Melbourne Storm jersey was definitely a holy shit moment. #wegood #breathe #grounding #ground #wegotthis #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
15.01.2022 When someone tries to doubt you, take that chip on your shoulder and turn it into the fire to push you further. Prove them wrong. That’s what I did. That’s how I ended up here. in the comments if you are proving some people wrong right now! #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
15.01.2022 2020 has been absolutely nuts. We’ve grown substantially (again), moved into a bigger office space (and we already might need a bigger one), started working heavily in elite sport and the corporate sector and so much more. More. Better. Always. Forever. What are your goals for the next year?... #covid19 #2020 #isolation #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
14.01.2022 When shit gets hard, it’s real easy to quit. Sometimes you’ll want to with almost every part of your being. But don’t. Realise you got here with the decisions you made, and this is yet another one you can make. Don’t let it break you. Don’t let it make you quit. You can be bigger, better and badder than ever before if you have that perspective and the drive to do so. Most of the time it’s just a challenging day, challenging week/month, sometimes year. But please realise that ...what’s on the other side of that adversity will be worth what you are going through. Your resilience will pay you back with interest. The greater the challenges, the more you will grow. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Push forward through the next challenge. Take one more step, then another. Don’t give up. Don’t quit. I promise there is something great on the other side. #bigger #better #businessgrowth #personalgrowth #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
14.01.2022 Efficiency is all about YOU. That’s why you see so much stuff on the internet around all these different ways to be more efficient. Write a list, don’t write a list. Work in the morning, work at night. Make sure you’re breaking up every 20 minutes and make sure you’re standing up and sitting down. I think none of that matters because what matters is you figuring out what’s best for you. For me, stimulation makes me efficient. So, having a movie on while I’m also on the... computer while I also play on my phone from time to time. Other people want to be in an enclosed room with nothing else in dead silence in the dark and working, and that’s fine too. What makes you efficient? Comment and tell me. #efficiency #tips #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
14.01.2022 I learned FAR more working away than I would have if I stayed home. I was only working away for three months but I did more than what people who stayed at home did in two years. I was out on my own in rural Western Australia and I had no workload (even though I was promised a big workload). So, what that meant was a LOT of business development, trying to hone my communication and negotiation skills and more. In the end, I was able to get myself into many different medica...l centres, an ‘Aboriginal Health Centre’, into schools and private hospital and ultimately experiencing every facet of working with rural communities and regional centres. It definitely helped boost my learning and skills far and above what I would have got if I had just tried to stay on the Sunshine Coast. Is there any advice I can give around moving for work? Let me know your questions in the comments. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics

13.01.2022 NEW How They Do Business podcast OUT NOW! Questions from the audience are up (again) and I have been the only one talking on this podcast since COVID ruined everyone’s plans. I go on a bit of a rant about doing what you say. I’ve said before that word is bond but I truly credit our success to me doing exactly what I say I will. Being able to promise that we’re going to do something, on time, every time is a big reason that we’ve gotten this far as an organisation. Listen to... my rant here: https://podcasts.apple.com//how-they-do-busin/id1493334039 #podcast #business #businesstips #trust #leadership #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
12.01.2022 This is a throwback to my team. For those that don’t know, I have been playing football (soccer) for 26 straight years now on the Sunshine Coast and thankful that I have been able to play in teams I truly enjoyed being a part of. No d*ckhead policies throughout. I started this team and was the captain, manager and coach for 5-6 years we had it running, we only had 1 year that we missed out on winning at least one trophy. This right here is a photo from our team in 2018 when ...we were the first team to ever do the clean sweep two years running, and the only team to then go on to win a Champion of Champions match vs the winner of the Brisbane league. Just like my company, we are a team of misfits, but we all work together and get the job done. It is my release and the only thing that I actively try to maneuver all work around each season. It is 100% for fun, but I am also competitive AF. There are so many similarities between sport and running a company, and thankful that I have been able to achieve success in both. Anyway, pretty much a post about nothing, other than sharing what I am passionate about with the world. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
11.01.2022 While you’re all nursing your hangovers from last night, I’m on my emails doing work and getting ready for the new year. I never really do anything for NYE because it’s just not that important to me I can get drunk any time. This time, while all of the rest of the company is on break is my biggest opportunity to get shit done, without a single person needing me on any single day. I get to do my shit. Plus, I’m flying out tomorrow to go watch two of our sports partners Melbo...urne Victory and Brisbane Roar FC play at AAMI Park in Melbourne, then I am going to the Melbourne Storm pre-season camp on the 4th so that will be celebration enough. What did everyone else get up to last night? #newyears #2021 #thankfuck #hangover #beers #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
11.01.2022 Being a leader is difficult, and I can’t promise you are built for it. But if in a team environment you take ownership for others, you default to raising your hand and owning up to your contribution to a mistake. If you own up to your weaknesses and shortcomings, if you are open to saying that someone will fit better in your position and that you are built more for another, you might have a small piece of the puzzle you need. Even though you might not be in charge just y...et, you are leading in a different way, and you are certainly someone I would want on my team. If you think this is you, put your hands up in the comments and let me know what role you think you are best for. #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
07.01.2022 NEW How They Do Business podcast OUT NOW! This week is all about being on point. As a business owner, it’s all on you and you really have to be on point at all times. On point in the way you manage your staff, on point in the way you manage your relationships, on point in decision making and on point managing yourself and your emotions. I made my bed and I am happy with my choices, but it’s not always easy....

05.01.2022 Crazy ridiculous outrageous month, and it ain’t over. Much more to come. More announcements, and even more possibilities.

05.01.2022 I get asked this one a lot... Why JUST dietetics? Why not other allied health? To be honest, I’ve thought about starting a separate business to see if I can do it, just because now I’ve got the business acumen behind me. I can see things that I maybe wouldn’t have been able to see when I started out. This is why I haven’t done that (and why I don’t currently plan on it either).... Would you feel the same if you were me? #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics See more
05.01.2022 I was in Adelaide this week (if you didn’t catch my stories), shadowing dietitians, facilitating Dietitian Life meetups. The usual (pre-COVID, anyway). Had some really great chats with some students from Flinders University, who hit me up after my presentation last week. I really enjoyed being able to have some conversations with the people that are going to be getting jobs next year (hint, hint) around what to expect, what we look for, all of that type of thing. I do these m...eetups because I want to fill future dietitians with confidence, but also give them perspective on the industry. It’s 100% worthwhile for me and I TRULY think that the people that take advantage of these meetups that we offer, will see the benefits moving forward. That’s just a little from my world this week. Who am I going to see at the next DL meetup?? #dietitian #studentdietitian #dietetics #dietitianlife #dietitian #dietetics #nutrition #health #alliedhealth #studentdietitian
04.01.2022 Attending the first of many football games for the 2021 season. Today, two of our partners Melbourne Victory and Brisbane Roar FC are playing at AAMI Park in Melbourne. I’m going to be there with two of my senior staff members, Liam & Rebekka who are the sports dietitians that are servicing these teams alongside me. I’m expecting similar feelz to the Melbourne Storm Captain’s Run (pictured above) after one of our first major press conferences. That of hard work truly paying o...ff. What gives you these feelz at work? #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
04.01.2022 Missed a business opportunity? I have missed plenty of opportunities, but if you don’t keep trying, you’ll continue to miss them. Simple as that.

04.01.2022 What content should an allied health business share? Well, what feels authentic to you. It all depends what your philosophy is and what your goals are within your individual company, but for ours, we just try to think about the end consumer and reverse engineer from there. And then for my accounts like this one, I literally just talk about life and answers questions and create content around what people are telling me or asking me or what I am seeing.... Do you think about your content like this? #content #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
03.01.2022 I don’t know if I’ll ever be ABLE to retire, because that’s just how my brain works. That being said, if I ever did desire to sell the business, I can see myself just starting another one to keep busy. Anyone relate to this? #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
03.01.2022 When it comes to my professional image, yeah I do take my piercings out and cover my tattoos early in the relationship, just so that they take me on what results I can provide them Rather than their perception of what I can do based on how I look. That being said, once the relationship starts to develop and loosen up (usually with a few beers and non-business chat), it’s less of a priority. I think I've got a pretty good approach to balancing authenticity and professionali...sm. How do you balance the two? #beyou #beyourself #results #killit #killingit #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
02.01.2022 Not surprised, just disappointed.

02.01.2022 It’s shit, but it’s also motivating. If people think you aren’t going to be able to do something or they think less of you because of the way you look, it gives you the opportunity to smack them in the face with your results. That’s how I see it anyway. Do you see it the same way I do? #beyou #beyourself #results #killit #killingit #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
02.01.2022 Was it lucky that I was emailing people while I was overseas, like emailing people back home while I was overseas on holiday? Was it lucky that I found the right staff? Or that we got handed the tender after applying and putting in the hard work? I’m lucky in some aspects but that luck was generated from hard work. Watch the video and tell me if you believe you are lucky, or everything you have came from work? #luck #hardwork #bossdietitian #business #businessowner #ceo #entrepreneur #dietitian #dietetics
01.01.2022 Late night musings. Continually trying to show my journey, our company’s journey and just voice the how and why. More than anything I look forward to the flashbacks in 1, 2, 5, 10 years. There isn’t anything fancy to our success, there isn’t an exact system, but put simply this is mine. It isn’t that hard...not if you really want it.... #strategy #successstrategy #businessstrategy #business #success #dietitian #dietitianlife #entrepreneurship #entrepreneur #entrepreneurlife #mindset #work #workethic #sayyes #yesman #execute #takeaction #bossdietitian #dietitianboss #ambition
