069 - The Secret to Standing Out and Selling Yourself - Jenny Westerkamp

The Unconventional RD Podcast

Whether you’re a student, intern, or professional, learning how to stand out and sell yourself can be the difference between getting lost amongst the crowd and scoring the opportunities you really want.

Today I’m speaking with Jenny Westerkamp, dietitian for the Chicago Bulls and founder of All Access Dietetics - a company that offers internship application coaching, rd exam prep, and career development resources for students, interns, and RDs.

Jenny actually started this company when she was still a student and has had great success creating opportunities for herself in her career.

In this episode, Jenny shares her tips for standing out and offers key insights into learning how to sell yourself so you can nab that job, internship, volunteer opportunity, etc. that you’ve had your eye on.

Towards the end of the conversation, we also chat about Jenny’s experience founding and growing her company. Spoiler alert, it did NOT go perfectly from day 1, there were a lot of ups and downs and pivots to grow All Access Dietetics to what it is today.

As you listen to this episode, I encourage you to brainstorm ways you can take some of the lessons and apply them to your own life and career!
