If you’ve been considering a career in nutrition, my podcast producer, Emily Soape, RD, has some sage advice.  After years of weighing the pros and cons of going the route of registered dietitian, she finally completed the journey of obtaining the official designation of “RD”. As Emily explains in the episode, this may not be the optimal choice for everyone. It comes down to your ultimate goals for your career and your personal strengths. There are many options. Currently, Emily is working as a clinical dietitian while figuring out her career's next steps.  Listen in for advice on getting started with a dietetic internship and how real world experience changes perspective.
