Meet your Guide
Hi, I’m Kelan. Your dietitian career coach.
Over the past 5 years, I have helped hundreds of dietitians transform their careers through one-on-one coaching. The Dietitian Collaborative brings this expertise to a supportive group setting, making career guidance accessible to more RDs!
My vision is to create a supportive space where dietitians can uplift and support each other regardless of their career path. No more posting on other social media platforms with zero response or advice to “leave the field”.
The job search and finding your way in the field of dietetics can feel overwhelming and lonely. The Dietitian Collaborative brings you the community you’re looking for.

Yes! This is the idea that sparked the whole membership. My clients have consistently requested to be connected to RDs who can answer their questions about how to transition to a new industry. This series is designed to be extremely informative and will map about exactly what steps to take to make a career transition. I’m also paying the speakers to ensure that it’s a HIGH value sesion.
-
Absolutely! My vision is to create a supportive space for dietitians in all phases of their career. Think of this as a more positive and intimate community experience where you’ll also get your questions answered.

-
No! I have purposefully shifted away from Facebook to a more secure platform called Circle. It is very easy and intuitive to use either on a desktop or on your phone.
I moved to this platform to be able. to offer live recordings, a resource library, a forum/discussion board and more to come!
-
Yes! You can decide if you want to use your full name, first name only or another name to protect your identity. This is another reason I moved this group to a more private community space.
