Nicole with Michelle Bridges at Dietitians Unite 2017
Why did you join the Dietitian
Connection community? And what do you do to wind down
your day?
Working in pharmaceuticals for close
to ten years, I learned the value of
being involved with industry peak-
body organisations. It keeps my
finger on the pulse of the profession,
provides networking opportunities,
and helps me get involved and have
a say. As such, I’ve been a member of
DC since its inception. Its continuous
reinvention and evolution keeps me
engaged and motivated. It’s hard for me to do one thing at a
time! When it’s time for bed, you’ll
find me lying on the floor, on top of a
physio ball, to release my lower back
or hips; reading the latest biography
(or a clinical paper!); or listening to a
meditation track on Spotify. It’s always
the same guy who I met at Bluey’s
Beach years ago – he has one of those
voices that’s so soothing and relaxing.
It helps me sleep like a baby.
What’s the first thing you do every day
when you wake up?
My daughter is a squad swimmer, so
we’re up at 4.30 a.m. three mornings
a week. I drink buckets of water on
waking, do an hour’s worth of work
and then get going to a yoga class,
or out into nature for a run (with
or without my sleepy dog). I am a
morning person, so it’s my most
productive time of day.
