Facilitator
Hi, I'm Alissa Rumsey (she/her), a dietitian, nutrition therapist, intuitive eating counselor, and the author of Unapologetic Eating.
I've been a dietitian for over 15 years and a business owner for the past nine years. I'm also a business coach and clinical supervisor/consultant for other dietitians and clinicians.
I've been working with dietitian entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs for years.
A consistent theme I see is people feeling overwhelmed, lost, stuck, and wanting to know how to "do it right".
I created this Foundation Course so that you can take immediate action in setting up and launching your own business.
I want to help shorten your learning curve and increase your confidence so that you can start your business now.
Learn More about Alissa
I am passionate about supporting dietitians and clinicians so that you can confidently start and grow your business, and deepen your counseling skills, while also taking care of yourself.
I started working as a business coach for dietitians and clinicians in 2017 when I founded the Dietitian Entrepreneur Mastermind Retreat, a three-day in-person workshop designed to help nutrition professionals start and grow their businesses. From 2017 to 2020, I hosted over a dozen of these sold-out Retreats in New York City, attended by clinicians worldwide.
When the pandemic struck, more clinicians than ever were looking for support to start their businesses. I took my popular Aspiring Entrepreneurs Retreat online and created the Dietitian Entrepreneur Foundation Course, as an online training program that teaches clinicians how to set up and launch their nutrition business.
I also am the founder and lead facilitator of The Liberated Clinician, a group coaching experience for clinicians who want to build a weight-inclusive business from a justice-informed lens, and deepen their counseling skills, while prioritizing taking care of themselves, so that they can confidently show up for their clients.
I love to work with other health professionals so that we can challenge the 'status quo' in nutrition care and in business. Let's reframe what is possible as clinicians – and do it together.
