Beyond The Clinic

If you want to make more money as a freelance dietitian without filling your diary with more one-to-one appointments, passive income from a low-cost digital product could be the answer. I made a £9.99 digital guide that consistently brought in £400 to £800 a month, and 32% of my highest-paying clients had bought something low-cost from me first.In this episode, I’m showing you how dietitians can turn their existing expertise into a digital product, then build a simple automated sales system that can sell it while you’re seeing clients, walking the dog or (ideally) having a bath without your phone glued to your hand.I’ll walk you through the process I use in my own business, from finding a digital product idea people actually want to buy, to creating a free resource, building an email list and setting up automated emails that take someone from discovering you to becoming a customer.I’ll also explain why your low-cost offer can be about much more than making a few extra pounds. Done well, it can create a new income stream, help fund your marketing and introduce potential clients to your expertise before they ever consider your premium services.What you’ll learn:How dietitians can create passive income without adding more one-to-one appointmentsHow to find digital product ideas your audience is already willing to pay forHow to identify a specific problem that makes a good low-cost digital productHow to build a simple sales funnel for a dietitian digital productHow automated email sequences can sell your digital product while you’re working with clientsHow low-cost digital products can lead customers towards premium offersHow to use AI to create marketing assets without becoming a tech expertHow to build a new digital income stream in 90 days with focused time each weekLinks mentioned in this episode:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/90-Day Sprint: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/90-day-sprintI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If your blog traffic has dropped, it doesn’t necessarily mean your SEO is wrong or that your content isn’t good enough. Google search has changed, and AI is increasingly answering people’s questions without them ever clicking through to your website.In this episode, I explain what’s happening to Google search, how AI is changing the way people find information, and what this means for your SEO as a dietitian or health professional. I also share what happened to the traffic and advertising income on my own children’s nutrition website, and the three practical things I’d focus on now rather than simply publishing more blogs.I saw this shift first-hand. My children’s nutrition website once attracted around 150,000 visitors every month, with advertising income of around £2,000 to £4,000 a month. At its lowest point, traffic had fallen by around 100,000 visitors a month compared with its peak, and advertising income was closer to £400 a month.What you'll learnWhy your Google traffic can fall even when your blog content is still genuinely usefulHow AI Overviews are changing the way people use Google searchWhy people may be getting answers from AI without clicking through to your websiteHow AI decides which paragraphs and information to use when answering health questionsHow to structure blog posts so Google and AI can understand your answers more easilyWhy answering one specific client question can be more valuable than writing another huge general blogHow to check what Google and ChatGPT are showing for the questions your clients ask you most oftenWhy your dietitian credentials and evidence-based approach can become an advantage in AI searchI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

Ep 120: How To Get Chat GPT to Recommend YouYes, you can make it more likely that ChatGPT recommends your business by making your expertise, niche, location and credibility really clear and consistent across your online presence. AI is increasingly helping people decide who to work with, so it needs to be able to understand who you are, who you help and why you're a credible choice.In this episode, I’m breaking down what we currently know about how AI decides which businesses and health professionals to recommend. I’ll show you the practical changes you can make to your website, Google Business Profile, professional directories and other online profiles so ChatGPT and other AI tools have the information they need to understand your business.One of my dietitian clients and I tested this during one of our coaching calls. We searched for the best children’s allergy dietitian in the UK, and despite her being a well-known specialist in exactly that area, she wasn’t mentioned in the Gemini AI overview. It was a brilliant reminder that being excellent at what you do doesn’t automatically mean AI knows to recommend you.What you'll learnHow ChatGPT decides which businesses and health professionals to recommendHow to make your business easier for ChatGPT to understandWhy your website, LinkedIn, Google Business Profile and directories need consistent informationHow to use client reviews and case studies to demonstrate your business expertiseWhat your website needs to include so AI can find and understand your servicesHow professional credentials and trusted online directories can strengthen your credibilityHow to check whether ChatGPT is already recommending your businessFour simple changes you can make today to help AI understand who you are and who you helpYour next step: Take an hour this week to check what ChatGPT says when you search for someone like you. Try three questions your ideal client might ask, see who gets recommended, and note what those businesses have online that you might be missing. Then make one small improvement to your own online presence.If you try it, I’d love to hear what you discover.

I share the features I genuinely use every week in my own business, where ChatGPT excels, where it falls short, and why I think so many freelance dietitians are using just a tiny fraction of what it's capable of.We'll explore everything from creating AI-generated brand photos and having real-time voice conversations with ChatGPT, through to one of my favourite features: Custom GPTs. I'll explain how I've built AI assistants that understand my business, my clients and even the way I write, and how you can create your own to save time, improve your marketing and even enhance your client experience.I also cover one topic that every regulated healthcare professional needs to understand before using AI in practice: GDPR and handling sensitive client data safely.If you've been curious about AI but aren't sure you're getting the best from it, this episode will give you practical ideas you can start using straight away.In this episode you'll discover:Why ChatGPT and Claude are not interchangeable AI tools.The biggest mistake most freelance dietitians make when using AI.How ChatGPT can generate professional images without an expensive brand photoshoot.Why voice conversations with ChatGPT can become your best brainstorming partner.What Custom GPTs are and how they can save you hours every week.How I use multiple Custom GPTs across my own business.Ways you can create AI-powered tools for your own nutrition clients.The GDPR mistakes every health professional needs to avoid when using AI.How better prompts dramatically improve your AI results.Why I'll be comparing ChatGPT with Claude in Part 2 next week.Free ResourceI've created a free guide that shows you exactly how to write prompts that produce far better results from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other AI tools.Download your free prompt guide here:https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/prompt-patientIf you've ever thought "AI just doesn't sound like me", this guide will help you change that.Listen NextDon't miss Part 2, where I'll compare Claude against ChatGPT and explain the situations where I believe Claude is the better choice for freelance dietitians.If you're serious about using AI to save time, improve your marketing and grow your business, you'll want to hear both episodes.I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

Ep 117 - AI is coming for your clients. Here's how to make sure they choose you insteadAI is changing how people search for nutrition advice. More people are turning to tools like ChatGPT before they ever consider booking an appointment with a dietitian.While AI can generate meal plans and answer nutrition questions in seconds, it cannot replace clinical judgement, human empathy or the trust that comes from working with a registered health professional.This episode explores where AI falls short, why those limitations create an opportunity for dietitians, and how content marketing can position health professionals as the obvious choice in an AI-driven world.In this episode:Why more people are using AI for nutrition advice before seeking professional support.Where ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini perform well and where they fall short.The clinical reasoning AI cannot replicate.Why AI-generated meal plans can miss important nutritional and safety considerations.How to use educational content to build trust and authority.The role of storytelling in differentiating from AI.Practical ways to position dietetic expertise as more valuable than generic AI advice.Why visibility and consistent content marketing matter more than ever.How trust influences buying decisions in an AI-driven world.Is your AI tool producing rubbish results?

Do you ever feel like you're doing everything right in your business, posting consistently, growing your audience and sending regular emails, but people still aren't buying?If you've ever wondered whether your marketing is actually working, this episode is for you.I'm sharing the data from my own business that reveals just how dramatically client buying behaviour has changed in recent years. The truth is, people are taking much longer to invest, and that's not necessarily a problem. In fact, some of your best future clients may already be quietly watching, reading and listening to your content right now.In this episode, I'll walk you through what I've discovered about modern buying behaviour in 2026, why email marketing matters more than ever for dietitians and health professionals, and how to build a marketing strategy that works for both fast buyers and those who need time to trust you before they say yes.In this episode, you'll learn:How the average time it takes someone to buy has changed over the last five years.Why longer buying cycles are becoming the norm in online business.What my data reveals about client buying behaviour in 2026.Why email marketing is one of the most valuable assets in your business.The difference between fast buyers and nurture buyers.How webinars and live events continue to generate sales long after they've finished.Why your content is working harder than you think, even when results feel slow.The marketing metrics you should be paying attention to instead of obsessing over monthly sales.Practical ways to build trust and nurture potential clients over the long term.How to create a marketing strategy that supports both immediate and future sales.If you've been wondering whether your audience is paying attention or worrying that people are taking too long to buy from you, I hope this episode gives you a fresh perspective.

Do you know where your best clients are really coming from?If you're relying on gut instinct to decide where to spend your marketing time, you might be working much harder than you need to.In this episode of Beyond the Clinic, I'm sharing what happened when I analysed the data from 120 paying clients over the last five years. The patterns completely changed the way I think about marketing for dietitians and other health professionals, and they challenged some of the biggest assumptions we hear online about customer journeys, freebies and webinars.You'll discover why some people buy almost immediately while others quietly follow your work for years before investing, why your highest-paying clients may take the longest to convert, and how understanding your own buyer journey can help you make far better business decisions.If you've ever wondered whether your marketing is actually working, this episode will encourage you to stop guessing and start taking a more evidence-based approach to growing your business.In this episode you'll learn:Why evidence-based business is just as important as evidence-based practice.The surprising truth about where my clients actually come from.Why Instagram isn't doing as much of the heavy lifting as I once thought.What my data revealed about freebies, lead magnets and email nurturing.Why many buyers need multiple touch points before they're ready to invest.How a simple offer ladder can increase repeat business and lifetime customer value.How the buyer journey has changed dramatically over the last five years.Why your highest-paying clients often take the longest to make a decision.What my client data says about webinars (despite everyone saying they're dead).Practical ways to improve your marketing for dietitians using your own business data instead of assumptions.If you enjoyed this episode, make sure you subscribe so you don't miss Part Two, where I'll explain why buying behaviour has changed and what you need to do differently in your business to keep attracting clients in today's market.I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you're wondering why your private practice isn't growing as quickly as you'd hoped, despite being an excellent dietitian, this episode could be the missing piece.The truth is, many of the habits that made you brilliant in the NHS can quietly hold you back when you're trying to grow your own business. They shape the way you market yourself, communicate with potential clients and make decisions as a business owner. And because they've become part of your professional identity, you often don't even realise they're there.In this episode, I'm sharing four more NHS habits that could be secretly costing you clients and what you can do instead. These are the mindset shifts and practical changes that have helped me build two successful online businesses, and they're the same ones I help dietitians make inside Accelerate.Whether you're just starting your private practice or you're wondering how to grow a dietitian business more consistently, you'll come away with practical actions you can implement straight away to improve your dietitian marketing and attract more of the right clients.In this episode you'll discover:Why failing to follow up with enquiries could be costing you clients every month.How NHS conditioning can make running your business feel harder than it needs to be.Why treating your business like a hobby keeps your income unpredictable.The perfectionism trap that stops so many dietitians from being visible online.How to overcome the fear of posting on social media and being judged.The difference between educating your audience and marketing your services.Why connection, personality and storytelling attract more clients than information alone.Simple ways to create more structure and consistency in your business.Practical mindset shifts to help you think more like a business owner than an NHS employee.Resources mentionedEpisode 94: 4 NHS Habits That Are Quietly Killing Your Businesshttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2320439/episodes/18618726Episode 108: How One Simple Follow-Up Helped My Client Sign Five New Clientshttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2320439/episodes/19189665Learn more about Accelerate: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/yesI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you've created a digital product but the sales just aren't coming in consistently, you're not alone. And here's the thing... it doesn't necessarily mean there's anything wrong with your offer.In this episode, I'm diving into three of the biggest sales process mistakes I see dietitians and other health professionals making after they've created a digital product.

Have you ever created a digital product that you were convinced would sell… only to hear nothing but crickets?I've been there too.In this episode, I'm sharing four of the biggest mistakes I see health professionals make before they've even started selling their digital products. These are mistakes I've made myself while building my nutrition business, and they cost me time, energy and sales.You'll learn why validating your idea matters so much, how pricing can influence perceived value, why discounting often makes sales harder instead of easier, and why people buy outcomes rather than information.This is Part 1 of a two-part series.

This week is a really special one for our profession because it’s Dietitians Week and I couldn’t let it pass without shining a light on some of the incredible health professionals I’ve had the privilege of supporting inside their businesses.In this episode, I’m sharing three real client stories from dietitians who were once feeling overwhelmed, inconsistent, stuck, or unsure how to turn their expertise into a thriving private practice. From fully booking out clinics to creating five-figure months and finally feeling confident in their niche, these stories are proof that building a successful business as a dietitian is possible — even if things feel uncertain right now.We’re talking about what actually moved the needle for them (hint: it wasn’t posting more on Instagram or hustling harder). Instead, it was getting the right foundations in place: understanding their ideal client on a much deeper level, creating structured offers, learning how to market ethically, and building systems that actually support sustainable growth.And honestly? I hope this episode gives you a little boost of belief too. Because if you’re currently sitting at your kitchen table after clinic hours wondering whether your business is ever going to properly “work”… you’re definitely not the only one. (I’ve been there too.)In this episode, we cover: Why having followers doesn’t automatically mean you’ll get clients  The simple shifts that helped one dietitian become fully booked  How structured offers can dramatically increase your income  Why niching down often makes business growth easier, not harder  The power of becoming known for one specific area of expertise  How Bahi built authority in paediatric gut health and IBS  Why ideal client research changes everything in your marketing  What happens when your messaging finally makes people feel seen  The mistake many health professionals make when investing in coaching  Why strong business foundations matter more than chasing trends  How email marketing helps dietitians consistently attract clients  The mindset shift required to grow a successful private practice Mentioned in this episode:Ready to grow your business with more clarity, strategy, and support?The brand new Accelerate 2.0 is reopening soon and the waitlist is now open.This next round includes the chance for one lucky person joining from the waitlist to receive a £1,000 cash bonus.If you’re ready to build a business that feels more profitable, sustainable, and aligned with your life (without hustling yourself into the ground), you can apply here:Join the Accelerate 2.0 WaitlistHappy Dietitians Week 💛I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

Because more often than not, it’s not a visibility problem (despite what Instagram might have you believe). It’s what’s happening in the gap between interest and action.We talk about the small but powerful shifts you can make — in your content, your conversations, and your discovery calls — that can completely change how your business converts. And don’t worry… this isn’t about pushy sales tactics or becoming someone you’re not.

Have you ever shared something online… felt really good about it… and then bam — someone disagrees with you in the comments?It’s not something we’re ever trained for as clinicians, is it? One minute you’re confidently sharing evidence-based advice, and the next you’re questioning whether you should delete the post, explain yourself, or just quietly retreat and play it safe next time.In this episode, I’m sharing a real story from my own nutrition business — the post that sparked a wave of negative comments (and nearly knocked my confidence)… but also became my highest-performing piece of content.We’ll talk about how to handle criticism without spiralling, why disagreement online isn’t a sign you’ve done something wrong, and how leaning into slightly more polarising content can actually grow your audience, strengthen your authority, and attract the right clients to your business.If you’ve ever held back from saying what you really think because you’re worried about what people might say… this one’s for you.What You’ll Learn in This Episode Why getting negative comments online is a normal part of growing your visibility  How criticism can knock your confidence (and what to do instead of spiralling)  The key mindset shift from NHS clinician to confident business owner  Why disagreement doesn’t mean your clinical opinion is wrong  What actually happened when one of my posts received backlash (and why it went viral)  How polarising content can increase your reach, trust, and authority  The difference between being controversial vs. being clear in your stance  Simple ways to start creating stronger, more opinion-led content this week  A practical content exercise to help you stand out (without overthinking it)💬 DM me the word ACCELERATE on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/ If you’re ready to feel more confident showing up online, attract clients consistently, and build a business that actually works around your life… that’s exactly what we do inside Accelerate.I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you’ve ever had a discovery call that felt so promising… only to hear “I’m just going to check with my GP first” — you’re not imagining it. And you’re definitely not alone.In this episode, I’m unpacking why so many potential clients hesitate to invest in private support (especially here in the UK), and what you can do about it. Because the truth is, it’s not that people don’t want help — it’s that your content might not yet be showing them why your support is worth choosing.I’m sharing three simple but powerful shifts you can make in your content so it doesn’t just educate or get likes… but actually moves people towards working with you. These are the exact strategies I teach inside my programmes — and they’re designed to help you attract more of the right clients, without feeling pushy or salesy.In this episode, I cover: Why potential clients default to free NHS support (and what that means for your marketing)  The key difference between talking about what people need vs what they want How to create content that makes your ideal client feel instantly understood  Why your content needs to highlight the cost of doing nothing (gently, not fearfully)  How to handle common objections like “I’ll try it myself first” before they even come up  Simple ways to show the value of your private practice without over-explaining  The mindset shift that makes selling your services feel natural (not uncomfortable) If this episode has got you thinking “my content isn’t quite doing that yet…” — don’t worry.

Over the past month, I decided to run a little experiment in my business… and honestly, it was a bit of a wild one.I set myself a challenge to post four times a day on Instagram, every weekday, while testing some of the newest growth strategies (including trial reels). The goal? More visibility, more followers, and real data on what actually works right now.But here’s the truth… what I expected to happen and what actually happened were two very different things. So in this episode, I’m breaking it all down for you—what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d genuinely recommend if you want to grow your audience without burning out or wasting hours on content that goes nowhere.📝 What We Cover in This EpisodeWhat happened when I posted 4 times a day on Instagram for a month A behind-the-scenes look at trial reels (and whether they’re worth your time) Why more content doesn’t automatically mean more followers The biggest mistake people make when chasing Instagram growth A simple way to test content without doubling your workload How to use keywords to attract the right audience (not just more views) What “visibility content” actually means (and how to use it properly) Why polarising content can dramatically increase reach and engagement The power of content series to build trust and consistency What to focus on instead of chasing every new social media trend 💡 Key TakeawayIf you’re wondering how to grow on Instagram as a dietitian, this episode is your reminder that it’s not about doing more… it’s about being more intentional.Because the goal isn’t just more views—it’s getting seen by the right people who actually want to work with you.🔗 Links & ResourcesSocial Media Made Simple https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/social-media-made-simple DM me “SMMS” on Instagram if you want to chat about whether the course is right for you ✨ Gentle Next StepIf you’re feeling a bit stuck with what to post, or like you’re putting content out there and hearing crickets… you’re not the only one.This is exactly why I created Social Media Made Simple—to help you build a strategy that actually works for you (and your life), not one that has you glued to your phone 24/7.I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

This week’s episode is a big one… I’m celebrating 100 episodes of Beyond The Clinic 🎉 (which still feels slightly surreal to say out loud).And to mark it, I wanted to answer one of the questions I get asked all the time — should you start a podcast for your business?Because whilst podcasting can be one of the most powerful tools for building trust, authority, and sales… it’s also not something you want to add to your already full plate without a clear plan.So in this episode, I’m sharing the honest truth behind what it really takes — from the questions you need to ask yourself before you start, to the mistakes I made early on (hello perfectionism 👀), and how to actually make a podcast sustainable alongside a busy clinic and life.If you’ve ever found yourself wondering whether a podcast could work for you… grab a cuppa, this one’s for you 🤍What you’ll learn in this episode: Why starting a podcast without a clear purpose can quickly become overwhelming  The one question that matters more than “should I start a podcast?”  How a podcast can support your business growth (beyond just visibility)  What it really takes to stay consistent week after week  The perfectionism trap that nearly made me quit (and how I fixed it)  Why podcasting builds deeper trust than social media alone  How to know if you’re ready to share your voice and clinical thinking out loud  The importance of defining your ideal listener (and how it impacts growth)  The simple tech you actually need (and what you don’t)  How to repurpose your podcast into blogs, emails, and social content  What makes a podcast sustainable long-term (especially alongside clinic work)I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

In this episode, I’m sharing the honest story of my decision to leave the NHS after more than 20 years as a dietitian. This isn’t about criticising the system or the profession that shaped my career. The NHS gave me incredible experience, friendships and opportunities that I’ll always value. But there came a point where I realised the life I wanted and the way I was working were no longer aligned.I talk openly about the thoughts I had for years before I made the change, the guilt that came with wanting more, and the moment I realised I needed to take my private practice seriously. If you’re currently working in the NHS and quietly wondering whether you want something different, this episode will help you feel less alone and give you insight into what building something alongside your clinical role can look like.In This Episode I Talk About:Why reaching the top of my NHS career ladder still left me questioning “Is this it?”The guilt many clinicians feel when they start wanting more flexibility, challenge or incomeHow NHS systems and red tape can sometimes limit even the most committed cliniciansThe life event that made me re-evaluate everythingWhy I stopped treating my private practice like a side hustleDiscovering online income streams like digital products and coursesSelling my first nutrition resources online and the moment I realised this could workHow I doubled my NHS Band 8B salary in under two yearsSupporting other dietitians who wanted to build businesses of their ownThe moment I finally handed in my NHS notice after more than two decadesThinking About Your Own Next Step?If you love being a dietitian but feel like you want more flexibility, income or impact, you’re not alone.

If your business currently relies on back-to-back one-to-one sessions, you’re not alone. Most dietitians start their private practice this way because it feels familiar and safe. But at some point, many practitioners realise that relying solely on 1:1 clients creates a ceiling on both income and impact.In this episode, I talk about the signs that it might be time to move beyond one-to-one work and start leveraging your expertise in smarter ways. I walk you through how to recognise when your diary is full but your income feels capped, why repeating the same advice is actually a huge opportunity, and how to introduce scalable offers without completely giving up your one-to-one clients.You’ll also hear how I structured my own business to include multiple levels of support, allowing me to help more people while protecting my time and energy.In this episode, you’ll learn:• The five signs it’s time to move beyond one-to-one clients• Why relying only on 1:1 sessions limits your income and impact• How to recognise when your expertise is ready to be leveraged• Simple ways to introduce scalable offers into your business• How to keep premium 1:1 support while adding leveraged income streams• An example of a tiered offer model that allows you to help more clients without working more hoursConnect with me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Book a free discovery call to talk about your business https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discoveryI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you’re wondering why your private practice isn’t getting clients, this episode will help you figure out exactly where things are going wrong.In this episode, I walk you through a simple 5-step self-audit that will help you diagnose where your client-getting process might be breaking down. Whether you’re a dietitian just starting out or you’ve been running your private practice for years, there are always small bottlenecks that can quietly stop clients from booking with you.Instead of guessing what’s wrong, this checklist helps you step back and look at the full journey from stranger → lead → paying client so you can spot exactly where to focus your energy to get more clients as a dietitian.In This Episode We Cover• The real reason you might not be getting enough clients in your private practice • The 5 stages of the client journey every dietitian business needs • Why more Instagram posts won’t fix a broken client pathway • How to check if you’re getting enough traffic and visibility • Why traffic without lead generation creates a major bottleneck • The often-overlooked step that builds trust before someone books • What to look at if people are clicking but not booking discovery calls • How to identify if your issue is marketing, offer positioning or sales • The simple way to diagnose exactly where your client pipeline is stuckBook a free 20-minute discovery call with Sarah to discuss Accelerate https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discoveryI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If the words discovery call make your stomach do a tiny somersault… this episode is for you.In today’s episode, I’m walking you through exactly what to say on discovery calls if you want to hear more “yeses” — without feeling pushy, awkward, or like you’re suddenly auditioning for The Apprentice. Because the truth is, most of us were trained in the NHS… not in sales psychology.I’m sharing how I structure my discovery calls (with an 88% conversion rate), the questions I ask to build trust and connection, and the subtle psychological shifts that help clients confidently say yes. This isn’t about scripts or sleazy tactics. It’s about leading the conversation with clarity, warmth and confidence — so you can convert more discovery calls and finally stop hearing “I’ll think about it.”In This Episode, You’ll Learn:What a discovery call actually is (and when you really need one)Why batching your calls can improve your conversion rateHow to structure your discovery calls from start to finishThe exact type of questions that help you sell without feeling salesyHow to connect to emotion (without being dramatic or manipulative)The power of future pacing — and how to use it naturallyWhy asking for the sale on the call matters more than you thinkWhat to say when someone says, “I need to think about it”Why the fortune really is in the follow-upMentioned in This Episode:✨ Accelerate – The Health Business Mastermind https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermind📩 DM “accelerate” on Instagram to chat https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/I'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you’ve ever ended a full day of client calls feeling exhausted, a bit resentful, and quietly wondering whether this business is really worth it… this episode is for you.In today’s episode, I’m unpacking one of the most common and uncomfortable questions I get asked by health professionals: how do I actually know if I’m undercharging? Because pricing isn’t something we’re trained for. We’re taught to care deeply, to help generously, and to put others first. And that’s exactly why so many brilliant clinicians end up pricing emotionally instead of strategically.I walk you through four clear, tangible signs that your prices may no longer reflect the true value of your work, plus simple awareness exercises you can use right now to break out of the undercharging cycle. I’m also sharing a very honest story from my own children’s nutrition business that completely changed how I thought about money, value, and what people are genuinely willing to invest when they trust you.If pricing has been sitting in the “I know I need to look at this… but I don’t want to” box, grab a cuppa and listen in. This one might feel a little uncomfortable in places, but in the best, most freeing way.In this episode, I cover:Why undercharging is incredibly common for health professionals The difference between pricing emotionally and pricing based on impact Sign #1: You’re busy and booked out, but barely profitableSign #2: The “price flinch” and the urge to justify, soften or over-explain your feesSign #3: Your prices are stuck in the past while your skills and support have grownSign #4: The emotional and energetic signals that quietly tell you something is offI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

In this episode, I’m unpacking something that might just be holding your business back - and you probably don’t even realise it. If you’re a dietitian or health professional who trained and worked in the NHS, some of the very habits that made you a brilliant clinician could now be sabotaging your private practice growth.These four habits are so common, so sneaky, and so deeply ingrained that most of us carry them into business without question. But here’s what you need to know: the NHS mindset and the CEO mindset are not the same. And if you don’t unlearn these patterns, you’ll struggle to build the freedom-filled business you deserve.Today we'll explore what they are - and how to replace them with something that actually supports your business success.What You’ll Learn:The four most damaging NHS-trained habits health professionals bring into businessWhy “waiting for permission” is slowing your growth (and how to stop)The subtle difference between patients & clientsWhy building a personal brand is a powerful necessityThe real reason pricing your services feels so uncomfortableA mindset reframe that helps you confidently own your worthI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

Using AI in your marketing can feel like a big step as a health professional. You might see the potential time savings, while still questioning whether it fits with your standards, ethics, and professional responsibility.In this episode, I’m breaking down three often-overlooked costs of not using AI in your marketing and reframing what ethical, aligned AI use can actually look like in a healthcare business. This isn’t about cutting corners. It’s about protecting your time, staying visible, and building consistency without burning yourself out.If you’ve tried AI tools and felt underwhelmed, or avoided them altogether because they didn’t feel quite right, this episode will help you see how things can work very differently when AI is trained properly.In this episode, we cover:How manual marketing eats into your time & energyWhy inconsistent visibility affects trust and client growthThe risks of using untrained AIHow AI can support your marketing without compromising integrityI also share details of a live, hands-on workshop where I’ll show you how to build and train your own AI marketing assistant, tailored to your business, your niche, and your voice.👉 Find out more and book your place: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/ai-marketing-assistant-earlybird-openI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery

If you’ve tried using ChatGPT for your business and walked away feeling underwhelmed, frustrated, or quietly worried about whether it’s even safe to use… you’re not doing anything wrong.In this episode, I’m sharing why most healthcare professionals struggle to get good results from AI tools, why generic ChatGPT content can actually be risky for regulated professionals, and the completely different approach I now use in my own business.I talk you through how I went from rewriting everything ChatGPT gave me, to building a custom AI marketing assistant that genuinely sounds like me, understands my business, respects professional boundaries, and saves me hours every single week. This is the exact system I now use to create podcast assets, emails, social content, and sales copy - without losing my voice or my integrity.And if you’ve ever thought, “This sounds amazing, but probably too techy for me” —-I promise you, it’s not. I’ll explain what actually goes into training ChatGPT properly, why prompts alone aren’t enough, and how you can build something that works for your business, even if you don’t have loads of content yet.What you’ll learn in this episode:Why generic ChatGPT outputs feel bland, robotic, and not like youThe hidden risks of using AI as a regulated healthcare professionalThe difference between using ChatGPT and training ChatGPTWhat an AI marketing assistant really is (and what it isn’t)How to teach AI your tone of voice, values, and professional boundariesWhy this approach saves time and improves resultsHow I use my own AI assistant daily across my businessDetails of my hands-on workshop where we build your AI marketing assistant together🌟 Is your AI tool producing rubbish results?

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by international mindset and business coach Shelley Bosworth to unpack the real work behind building a courageous mindset. We dive into the practical side of mindset growth — what it looks like day-to-day for ambitious clinicians in business, and how confidence isn't the prerequisite for action — it's the result of it.Shelley shares her leap-from-corporate story, the link between mindset and burnout, why fear of success is more common than you think, and how to stop comparing yourself to others. If you've ever said “I just need more confidence,” this episode will help you reframe that thinking and offer a clear path forward.🔗 Relevant Links:👉 Take Shelley’s Self-Leadership Quiz: https://www.tryinteract.com/share/quiz/691314066c79630015f11a84📚 The Gap and the Gain book: https://amzn.to/4iRsskx🧠 Learn more about Shelley: shelleybosworthcoaching.com📌 What We Cover in This Episode:Shelley’s pivot from corporate to coaching during the pandemicMindset and strategy (and why you need both)Redefining success and what it means to youThe difference between courage and confidence The “Catch it, Challenge it, Change it” method to shift negative self-talkI'd love to hear from you, click the link to 'text' the show directly Lets keep in touch!Website:  https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dietitiansinbusiness/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dietitiansinbusinessYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheClinicPodcast FREE Workbook - The Master PlanDiscover the 22 steps you need to take (in the right order) to build a successful business so you can earn enough to live the freedom lifestyle you dream of. https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/master-plan Work with me:Business Coaching: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/mastermindSarah AI: https://www.sarahalmondbushell.com/offers/AYjozgYc/Book a discovery call: https://thechildrensnutritionist.as.me/discovery
