๐ฅณ This is Joanna, today is her birthday and the last day of her dietetic internship rotation with me at Begin Again Nutrition. Joanna was nothing short of a blessing and a pleasure to work with. Join me in celebrating Joanna on her accomplishments and her birthday! ๐ค๐
๐ฐ This is what Joanna had to say about her internship hours with me as her preceptor:
โWorking with Stephanie as a dietetic intern was one of the most impactful learning experiences I have had.
She has an incredible ability to combine evidence-based nutrition with compassion, curiosity, and genuine patient connection. One of the biggest lessons I learned from her is that it does not matter how much knowledge you have if a patient does not feel heard, understood, and supported.
Stephanie is deeply passionate about integrative medicine and medical nutrition therapy, and it shows in every aspect of her work. She was extremely generous with both her time and resources and consistently went out of her way to support my professional growth. She thoughtfully created dynamic projects and learning opportunities that helped me complete my competencies while also contributing to the success of Begin Again Nutrition.
I gained invaluable experience in motivational interviewing, patient communication, interdisciplinary collaboration, and real-world nutrition counseling. I feel incredibly fortunate to have learned from someone so intelligent, hardworking, and dedicated to both her patients and her interns.โ
๐ Thank you again, my friend! I cannot wait until our paths cross again!
