- Walk through a simple exercise to do with your patients that make achieving their goals doable!
What sets your patient's heart on fire when they think about their future? What gets them excited? Is it a number or a metric? I honestly doubt it. It's probably a feeling or a result of achieving that number. Patients probably imagine the way they feel: free, confident, loved, happy, energetic, sexy. That's the magic of goal-setting.
If you're a primary care provider looking to enhance your nutrition counseling skills or simply seeking a refresher, join me as we make our patients healthier, one exam room at a time!
