Conversations with the Inspiring Brittany Payton RDN, LD

Today we’d like to introduce you to Brittany Payton RDN, LD.

Brittany, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
My story starts with my very own transformation. I have been a registered dietitian and fitness professional for more than 15 years. Becoming The Honest RD came after becoming a wife, mom while maintaining my position in corporate wellness and still teaching fitness class but feeling like I was failing at all of the above because I was failing in keeping up with my own health while finding my own rhythm in life. My health brought me to a hard stop making me take a pause and put my health, fitness, mindset, and time management all in perspective to create a better me that was of better service to all who are in the life that depended on me. After my struggle, I looked a lot of my clients and other women around me and I noted I was not alone. So, I created my virtual practice around empowering successful, high achieving, and busy women who are looking to elevate their lives in every area but really needed to address their health first in order to ever take another step towards greatness. This was the birth of The Honest RD Transformation Academy.

In this day, an age where were woman are so busy running their careers and families, often feeling inadequate by comparing yourself to the images in the media, and making little to no time for fun or self-care there is a need for some girls time in a positive environment where you have fun and are celebrated. So, I have created POP UP BODY ROCK which is an epically fun monthly workout with a girls night out feel complete with live DJ, fun choreography that anyone can execute, and finally sending you off with a positive word to totally enrich your life.

Lastly, I hear questions from clients all the time about info that they have found on the internet or through hearsay that has absolutely no credibility, evidence-based science, or logic to stand on. In an effort to provide credible info on nutrition, fitness, and mindset to allow listeners to elevate their health and fitness I have created the Let’s Be Honest with the Honest RD Podcast.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Of course, it has not been a smooth road. I have had to dig deep and find my true passion and demographic. I have been able to hone in on those women and speak to their hearts and issues to offer true resolve. This is sometimes the hard part but when you find the sweet spot it makes it all worth it!

I have learned on my journey, not to be so afraid to fail that I do not give myself the option to succeed. So, I push myself to go forward, always put one foot in front of the other.

Please tell us more about what you do, what you are currently focused on and most proud of.
I am a woman who is passionate about guiding others to reach to their absolute best selves through fitness, nutrition, and mindset to allow them to shine in all the other areas of their lives. As a registered dietitian and personal trainer for over 15 years, I have seen what works for life long results and I have created programs that encourage clients to win!

What sets me apart from anyone else in my industry is my true passion to see people win in the areas of their health so I offer superior accountability, support, and education to ensure growth and success.

What do you feel are the biggest barriers today to female leadership, in your industry or generally?
My business started as I was able to see how much I personally needed focused support on my health and well-being in order to serve my family and others around me at a higher level. I look at being a woman serving other women as a bridge, not a barrier making myself truly relatable because I have been in their shoes… walked in their 5-inch stiletto heels while trying to balance everything in my world on my shoulders. This similarity helps me to care for and understand my clients even more because I have been there putting everyone else in front of myself. When my health came to a screeching halt, I knew something had to change and my mission is for other women to never reach that point!

The biggest barrier is often showing women in a tactful way that making an investment of time or finances in themselves is not selfish or weak but actually self-care will allow them to show up bigger and better for those they serve.
