I asked for a mentor this week. This professional is incredibly smart and relatable. I would be an honor to work with her. I am in the process now of having to wait for a reply to move forward, whether that means she accepts or declines. It has been a few days though, so I don’t know whether I should also ask another person so that I can get a mentor before the end of the month, or wait as long as it takes for her to reply? Nevertheless, it was a success on its own, to go on an interview and request a mentor ship. Furthermore, I took individual initiative to purchase two amazing books, The Enneagram of Eating and Intuitive Eating, to help me with my own research for my Original work, and to further my knowledge as a whole as a dietitian. These books really have opened my eyes to all that is available to help people thrive beyond the meal plans and nutritional facts. This helps me as a professional with clients or any other person grow, trust, and live through the basic nutrition facts I can provide, because I know how to effectively communicate it to each type of individual. Lastly, I have utilized my knowledge of statistical design to help prepare an outline for my Original work plan. Doing so, has really provided me with a lot more clarity in regards to the specifics and functioning of my survey and final project. After this week, I am very excited about what lies ahead for me.
