Don’t Let Your Event Suffer from Boring Conference Syndrome.

“She’s the rockstar dietitian. That’s what makes her unique – the way she presents her materials, the way she talks, the way she sings, the way she interacts with her crowd. That’s what sets her apart from just a regular presenter. We were all just looking at each other cracking up laughing. I almost fell on the floor laughing.”

What People Are Saying

 

“What she really touched on today was that missing link from knowledge to action – lowering the barriers and increasing motivation. I thought it was fun and I didn’t even have my cup of coffee in the morning!”

— KARIN PENNINGTON, RD, LDN
Research Nutritionist
Arkansas Children’s Nutrition Center

“We, as nutrition professionals, spout off information to our patients, to our clients, to our children. We’re not effective because half of what we’re telling them is not actually soaking in. With Jill’s presentation, you didn’t realize you were learning but you really were. She got us all involved, she brought up people from the audience to perform with her. You can’t forget an experience like that.”

— MICHAEL MARVIN, MS, RD, LDN
Sales Representative
United Medial Home Infusion

“Jill took everything that she had in her background in music and nutrition and turned it into something that could make her career. I would like to take that and figure out how I can turn my background into my unique approach to nutrition for children somehow. Not the same because I can’t sing but, you know what I mean.”
