Welcome to the Pursuing Private Practice podcast!
Join Jennifer McGurk, CEO of Pursuing Private Practice, and Lindsay Stenovec, Registered Dietitian and Clinical Supervisor, for a conversation about the clinical complexities of endometriosis, how dietitians can best support their clients, and what it looks like to navigate burnout, career pivots, and build a sustainable private practice.
In this episode, Lindsay shares what she has learned through her own diagnosis and treatment, and how dietitians can bring more informed, compassionate care to clients with endometriosis. Jennifer and Lindsay also have a real conversation about burnout, honoring your capacity, transferring your existing skills into a new niche, and building a business differently the next time around.
Lindsay reminds us how powerful it can be to listen closely, believe what clients are telling you about their bodies, recognize patterns that deserve further exploration, and know when to connect someone with additional support.
Sometimes excellent care isn't about having every answer. It's about being curious, staying within your scope, and helping clients feel less alone while they navigate something incredibly complex.
Lindsay's story is also a reminder that your business and career can and should evolve alongside your life, and that the experience and skills you've built don't disappear simply because you choose a different direction.

About Lindsay:
Lindsay Stenovec has spent nearly two decades in rooms where people finally say the thing they've never said out loud. As a Registered Dietitian specializing in eating disorders, women's health, and now endometriosis, she's learned that feeling seen and heard isn't a soft add-on to good care — it's where healing actually begins. She's built a group practice, led teams, supervised clinicians, and navigated her own complicated health journey along the way. These days, she works at the intersection of endometriosis, gut health, and whole-person nutrition — for patients who are tired of being dismissed, and for the clinicians who want to do better by them.
