Testimonials - Master the Media

Will You Be Our Next Success Story?

“By the end of the six-month program, I secured $41,000 in brand partnerships. Many of these were opportunities Master the Media brought directly to me.”

I expected my return on investment to take a long time because I had no media experience or social media following. Six months later, I’ve already secured paid partnerships with six brands, including Olipop and Now Foods, and I’m on track to DOUBLE last year’s income. Plus, I’m currently in talks with nine brands. I’m getting quotes featured in more major media outlets than I could have ever dreamt of, and I’m pitching myself to TV segments and applying to freelance writing opps––I never knew how to do that before! Plus, I finally have a plan for how to leverage my social media platforms and am seeing growth there.

Kaytee Hadley, MS, RDN, gut health dietitian

Although I have many years in the field as an entrepreneur and have accomplished a lot, Master the Media is pushing me to be a more well-rounded professional. In my first round of the program, I secured more than $40,000 in paid brand partnerships, with almost $30,000 of that coming directly from opportunities that Master the Media connected me with.

I’m finding I really enjoy working and having a presence in the media and with brands. The modules, resources, and weekly coaching calls are so valuable. The program has allowed me to expand my creativity and grow my expertise. If you join, I know you’ll gain so much knowledge whether you’re new or experienced working with brands.

Umo Callins, MS, RD, CPT, fitness coach and sports dietitian

“In JUST the past two weeks, I had two Time magazine articles published highlighting my interviews, a quote in EatingWell, my first live radio appearance, and two very promising calls with brands.”

I can’t believe it has been 6 months already! I really do want to say THANK YOU for building such an amazing course and community with Master the Media. Literally in JUST the past two weeks, I had TWO Time magazine articles published highlighting my interviews, a quote in EatingWell (about kidney stones!), my first live radio appearance and two very promising calls with brands, and I have another scheduled next week.

Since starting the course, I’ve had 17 mentions in major publications and my very first live radio interview on NPR today! Being a guest on an NPR show was my media goal from the get-go! This course was worth every penny and was so much fun to take! I found huge value in it, even though I’m fairly far along in my brand business journey and already have a very clear niche and am well established on social media and via my blog. Thank you so very much!

Melanie Betz, MS, RD, author of “Stop Kidney Stones from Your Kitchen”

“I’m two months into the program, and I’ve already earned $3,000 in brand partnerships!”

Just two months into Master the Media, I’ve earned $3,000 in brand partnerships so far, which I know is just a start! I’ve also onboarded several new one-on-one clients from them finding me in the media.

Anar Allidina, MPH, RD, CDE in Canada

“I’m one week into the program and have already secured $5,000 in collaborations for the next quarter.”

Thank you for your reassurance and guidance. I didn’t know it could be this easy! I’m one week into the program and have already secured $5,000 in collaborations for the next quarter. This is amazing! Even though I already have an established business, I wasn’t charging my worth, and I was making things overly complicated. I feel so supported and excited.

Kristy Baumann, RD, sports dietitian and marathon nutritionist

“Through Master the Media, I’ve seen the incredible potential to leverage my knowledge through brand partnerships. For example, I landed a $2,400 per month brand deal with one of my favorite companies.”

I felt stuck in the grind of corporate medicine for the last few years. Medicine has become a really challenging field to find balance and quality of life in. The long hours, the lack of autonomy, and the constant pressure to do more with less can feel overwhelming.

Productivity-based palliative care was slowly sucking my soul out of me. Six months ago, I did something completely outside my comfort zone—I learned about leveraging media and working with brands.

Master the Media didn’t just teach me about media—it showed me I already have the expertise and credibility to make a massive impact. I realized I’m an expert with influence, not just another “influencer.”

And with that realization, I saw the incredible potential to leverage my skills and knowledge to reach tens of thousands of people through media and brand partnerships. For example, I recently landed a $2,400 per month brand deal with one of my favorite companies. On top of that, I’ve been featured in major outlets like TIME, Glamour, Yahoo, Buzzfeed, and more—all within the past six to eight months!

Master the Media been a game-changer, not just for my business but also for the lives I’m able to touch through my message and experience! Take it from me—this could be the turning point you’ve been waiting for!

Simran Malhotra, MD, DipABLM, CHWC, triple board certified physician in internal medicine, hospice & palliative care, and lifestyle medicine

“It’s absolutely worth the money spent! The program produced a newfound confidence for me when it comes to asking for my worth when negotiating rates.”

The Master the Media Training & Certification is such an essential program if you want the actionable ins-and-outs of optimizing your media career, especially as a dietitian. I learned so much and was able to land several media outlet opportunities while in the program, including interviews with Real Simple, Fox, and several podcasts within my niche. This program also produced a newfound confidence for me when it comes to asking for my worth when negotiating rates for brand partnerships and seeing the true value in what I bring to the table as a nutrition expert! It’s absolutely worth the money spent!

Jasmine Westbrooks, MS, RD, LDN, CDCES, and co-founder of Eat Well Exchange

“We’ve been featured in Success Magazine and CEO Weekly, by Forbes Business Council, and on ABC Action News! This all happened just this year alone. If you’re on the fence about working with Amy, just do it.”

Amy showed showed us the power of mastering the media, and we made it a priority this year to share our mission of transforming the broken healthcare system, one private practice at a time, with the world. And since then we have been featured in Success Magazine and CEO Weekly, by Forbes Business Council, and on ABC Action News! This all happened just this year alone. If you’re on the fence about working with Amy, just do it. Mastering the media can have a huge impact on your business. Whether you offer one-on-one coaching, group programs, courses, or any other business model—it can help you grow and, of course, get awesome brand deals and sponsorships. Remember getting on the media shows the world you’re the go-to expert at what you do! Go change lives.

“I can’t believe I’ve come this far in just 3 short months!”

This program, the content, and the module feedback are invaluable in helping me learn and grow. I feel that I’m slowly dipping my toe into higher-level media opportunities. The modules where I had to work on pitches with feedback have been so valuable in helping me get ready to push pitches out to brands. I can’t believe I’ve come this far in just 3 short months with being ready and feeling like I have the tools in my toolbox to pitch brands and get paid for my value.

Cassandra Padula Burke, RDN, CPT, and triathlon coach

“I am a natural on TV. I attribute this to Amy’s training.”

If you are a newbie or a seasoned media dietitian, I highly recommend Amy Gorin’s Master the Media Training & Certification. Amy and her colleagues offer a wealth of knowledge. A colleague of mine recently shared with me that I am a natural on TV. I attribute this to Amy’s training. Amy is so good, I hope to be able to re-enroll for more coaching in the near future. Thank you, Amy!

Chrissy Barth, MS, RDN, yoga teacher, and integrative and functional dietitian

“I would highly recommend this program to ALL RDs who are wanting to increase their media education and exposure.”

This full immersion into the media world introduced me to media outlets that RDs could best provide education to. This course opened up my eyes to a new audience I can nurture, both with potential clients and with the public. Master the Media provides such an extent of information and discusses all the ways the RD can become recognized as an expert in nutrition guidance instead of influencers. I see this program as a confidence builder for our profession.

I would highly recommend this program to ALL RDs who are wanting to increase their media education and exposure.

Vesta Batchelder, RD, bariatric nutrition specialist

“I landed $15k in brand partnerships last year, and the support I received from Master the Media helped me find and pitch these opportunities.”

I had experience and training in working with both media and brands, so I wasn’t sure if Master the Media would be that valuable for me.

But even with some prior experience, I have learned a ton from Amy and her Master the Media coaches and experts! My favorite part of the program is the Facebook group. The MTM team posts media and paid brand spokesperson opportunities for current students.

I also love the ability to get your questions answered, from helping me through the details of a contract to help in pricing out a brand proposal. In fact, I landed $15k in brand partnerships last year, and the support I received from Master the Media helped me find and pitch these opportunities.

Amy always has awesome advice! I appreciate this so much that I’ve now enrolled in a second 6-month term as a MTM student.

Jennifer House, MSc, RD, Canadian dietitian

“I loved the module activities that required real-life processes so that students could submit pitches throughout the course with mentoring availability, group support with other students, and direct feedback from the program instructors.”

Your course has been awesome and so incredibly informative! I finished all the program materials in less than 10 weeks, and I am now ready to focus on earning additional income from brand partnerships. Master the Media provides comprehensive coverage broken down into small segments to reduce information overload. I loved the module activities that required real-life processes so that students could submit pitches throughout the course with mentoring availability, group support with other students, and direct feedback from the program instructors. The individualized module critiques were incredibly helpful. Plus, the direct media opportunities offered to students helped us apply and strengthen the skills learned from the course outside of the required module activities. I highly recommend Master the Media!

Jena Brown, RD, CSSD, sports dietitian

“Master the Media has opened my eyes to all the ways I can earn income as a dietitian—without seeing patients or working for someone else.”

The program’s personalized feedback helped me develop new skills. The training on entrepreneurship strategies, network-building, and effective communications when pitching media and brands were most valuable to me.

I’m most excited about being featured in the media and having a media kit ready to post to my website once it launches. Master the Media has helped build my skills and confidence for working with the media and brands. I now have more confidence in my ability to be a media dietitian and earn income independently.

MTM has opened my eyes to all the ways I can earn income as a dietitian—without seeing patients or working for someone else. As a result, I’m more excited about my professional possibilities!

Kate W. Spurgin, RDN, certified intuitive eating counselor

“I work full time and have earned $17,200 in brand partnerships since starting Master the Media. My media and brand successes through this program have encouraged me to keep pursuing my goal of working for myself.”

I just enrolled in another round of Master the Media. I’m so excited for another 6 months of coaching! I am most excited about landing my first brand partnership, from which I’ve earned $6,500, because it showed that it is possible for me to work with brands. It has given me confidence when I meet with other brands, and I am excited to see what future brand deals and media work I land to continue working toward leaving my full-time job.

I‘m also excited about being quoted in over 20 original media articles since I started Master the Media. These include Men’s Health, New York Post, MSN, and U.S. News & World Report. Many of the articles have been syndicated to MSN and other outlets, increasing my media reach greatly to over 850 million.

These wins have made me feel more confident in working with media and brands. I work full time and started my side hustle around the same time I started MTM. My successes through this program encourage me to keep pursuing my goal of working for myself, and I decided to make my side hustle official by starting an LLC. MTM has given me the confidence to pursue my goal of becoming a full-time entrepreneur.

Also, I started MTM with around 650 Instagram followers, and now I have over 3,500!

Sarah Alsing, MS, RD, owner of Delightfully Fueled

“This is the most useful certification I’ve had in my career.”

I’ve been a dietitian for 25 years. I can say with confidence this has been the best training and most useful certification I’ve had in my career. I’m very grateful!

This training motivated me to creatively adjust my business plan and integrate work I love into a revenue stream. Also, there’s so much misinformation in the media, which is confusing and harmful to the consumer. This training motivated me to get out there and share my knowledge as an expert.

Amy Goldsmith, RDN

“I have paid partnerships with two brands.”

Thanks to what I’ve learned from Master the Media and the connections I’ve made, I’m now partnering with two brands. Our work together includes media interviews, Instagram reels, and a visit to one of the brand’s facilities.

Lara Clevenger, MSH, RDN, CPT, ketogenic dietitian and keto coach

“Master the Media has been one of the best investments I’ve made for my business.“

The coaches’ sage, personalized advice saved me so much time! I was equipped with invaluable tools and resources that helped me hone in on outreach strategies that truly moved the needle quickly. I highly recommend this training to anyone who wants a proven roadmap to leverage their brand and land new partnerships.

Andrea Kirkland, MS, RD, content creator and culinary educator

“You won’t find step-by-step guidance like this anywhere else!”

I’ve taken media courses in the past, but none compares to this one. The coaches are true masters of the media and incredible mentors. Their guidance and unique skill sets, combined with years of experience, were just what I needed to kickstart my career in the media. Since starting this course, I’ve been featured in a number of top-tier media outlets, learned how to craft the perfect pitch, and gained the confidence to conduct any type of media interview. I highly recommend this course if you are a health professional looking to grow your business, land brand partnerships, or become a trusted source in the media. You won’t find step-by-step guidance like this anywhere else!

Kelsey Sackmann, MS, RDN, a dietitian for millennials

I cannot recommend this program enough. Amy and the other instructors are fantastic. They are wonderful experts, mentors, and coaches. They’ll make you feel like you’re their best friend! They give great feedback that you can get at any time through the Facebook group or through the live weekly calls. You’ll complete 12 different modules and get great feedback from the instructors, and this was super helpful to me. I learned how to craft a great pitch, who to reach out to with that pitch to get a response, and how to craft the perfect soundbite for quotes in the media.

Thanks to what I learned, during the program I got 50 different media mentions from a variety of large publications such as Eat This, Not That!, EatingWell, HuffPost, U.S. News & World Report, and Clean Plates—just to name a few. I definitely recommend this program if you want to get into the media. It’s a great value and investment!

Sheri Berger, RDN, certified diabetes care and education specialist

“One of the best continuing education programs I’ve ever taken!”

Master the Media Training & Certification is one of the best continuing education programs I’ve ever taken! Amy is highly supportive, detailed, and positive in showing you how earning income in the media is possible for you!

The MTM team knows how to take the best of your qualities and desires and help you seek opportunities that provide max growth! My confidence and coaching business has improved as a result of this program, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone on the fence!

Amanda Liptak, RDN, CEO of Nutrient Rich Life

“I am working on a partnership I never would have gotten without the coaches’ advice and guidance about brand partnerships.”

The weekly calls are so insightful. I see questions frequently on other Facebook groups that Amy and the other coaches answer during these calls. They are so knowledgeable and always willing to help us.

I have been in featured in more articles, I have made connections and started writing for a magazine and website more specific to my niche (which I would have never discovered without the instructors’ guidance), and I am working on a partnership I never would have gotten without the coaches’ advice and guidance about brand partnerships. I even signed up for a second round of Master the Media.

Katie Breazeale, MS, RD

“I now have secured more than $25,000 in income from brand work.”

Since starting the Master the Media Training & Certification, my media reach is up to over 1 billion and continues to grow. I’ve been an expert source for over 20 different media outlets, such as HuffPost, Fox News, Forbes, Men’s Health, and Newsweek—and I’ve been featured in over 100 articles. And my income has increased! I’ve learned to charge my worth, have landed my biggest brand partnerships to date, and have secured more than $25,000 in income from brand work over the next year.

Ashley Kitchens, MPH, RDN, vegan dietitian

“More of my followers are trusting me, thanks to my many features in the media.”

I have been featured in so many publications since enrolling in the Master the Media Training & Certification program, which has resulted in reaching more people than ever before and more of my followers trusting me because of my media features.

Also, I got my first major brand partnership (for $3,200) with a brand that Master the Media directly connected me with. With that under my belt, I can leverage it for other brand deals in the future. Plus, an unexpected result is that more brands and PR companies have contacted me to discuss future work! Thank you for all the continued support. You are wonderful! 🙂

Alyssa Smolen, MS, RDN, New Jersey Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics media representative

“Master the Media gave me the confidence to pitch and connect with brands and media outlets.”

Master the Media has been an absolute game-changer for me. The program not only taught me how to effectively position myself as an expert but also gave me the confidence to pitch and connect with brands and media outlets.

The practical strategies, personalized guidance, and supportive community made navigating the world of media feel achievable, even as someone new to the space, considering my time has been exclusively in healthcare. Since joining, I’ve secured media opportunities that have elevated my visibility and helped me share my message with a broader audience.

I highly recommend Master the Media to any professional looking to amplify their expertise and make a lasting impact.

Robin Valadares, MSc, PT, personal finance educator in Canada

“I have already started a podcast using much of what I have learned in the course regarding creating relevant content.”

I’m grateful to have Amy as a mentor and to ask questions, especially when it comes to the brands and understanding when something is a fair negotiation versus me being taken advantage of. I found so much of this content valuable. Learning what types of services to offer brands, as well as how to pitch and price these services, is what I found most helpful.

I have already started a podcast using much of what I have learned in the course regarding creating relevant content. I don’t love writing, so I am thinking of other ways I can create content and dialogue to help market myself and make me credible.

Carla Hernandez, RD, women’s health dietitian

“I was able to practice the skills needed and get feedback from the instructors.”

This course taught me all the terminology of working with the media as a dietitian—not just what it means but how to do it. I was also able to practice the skills needed and get feedback from the instructors so that I will be successful in the future doing it on my own. The practice sheets and feedback are so valuable in making sure we are understanding the information and are able to execute it. I plan to utilize the skills I learned in this training to become a media RD and spread the word about healthy eating to a broader audience!

Stephanie Crabtree, MS, RD

“Master the Media taught me a lot about maximizing my reach as an RDN without compromising or overstepping my license.”

I cannot thank you enough for all that you’ve poured into this course! It has changed my life. Literally. Over the past year or so, I’ve been working diligently toward a long-time business dream, and I’ve leaned on Master the Media so many times along the way.

This course is SO thorough and insightful! I only have good things to say about Master the Media. I learned a great deal about how to use my credentials and expertise in the media to expand my career and further the field of dietetics. MTM taught me a lot about maximizing my reach as an RDN without compromising or overstepping my license.

As a result of what I’ve learned, I’ve expanded my freelance writing to Health, Forbes, and other outlets and am pursuing brand partnerships that financially honor an RDN’s input.

The instructors were very easy to contact, and they offered their time on multiple platforms to be accessible to students.

Chelsea Rae Bourgeois, MS, RDN, writer for Health and Forbes

“Many dietitians like myself tend to sell themselves short when it comes our type of work. I learned many strategies and skills during the course to help me earn my value.”

I feel like the staff and instructors really cared about watching their students succeed. I found the weekly coaching calls and Facebook community the most valuable. Having face-to-face access to the coaches made it incredibly easy to ask questions to the experts in this field. I also really loved being able to connect and hear from other students in the Facebook groups and weekly Zoom coaching sessions. Many of the students would ask questions that I also wanted to know.

After participating in this course, I intend to change the way I charge for many of my services. I learned that it is OK to charge more for my expertise. Many dietitians like myself tend to sell ourselves short when it comes to our type of work. I learned many strategies and skills during the course to help me earn my value.

Negotiating my worth is not a skill that I am very comfortable with, but I have learned so much about it in this course. This course made me feel so much more comfortable with negotiating service rates.

Dawn DiMarco, MS, RD, community nutrition expert

“Amy’s ability to connect students—with each other, and with media and brands—builds confidence.”

I feel like Master the Media is the OG of the media dietitian world. Amy’s ability to connect the community—first with each other, and then with media and brands—builds confidence in the media profession and encourages communal growth.

As a frequent contributor to TV, I have been able to secure paid packages for segments. In fact, after MTM connected me with Olipop, I was able to pitch and secure two paid segments with them. Also, based on Amy’s encouragement, I’ve done a lot more of stepping into the shoes of the brand to enable me to better fulfill their needs. I believe I am forming great working relationships!

Annessa Chumbley, RD, Emmy-nominated TV host

“This program has really changed my career path in such a positive way.”

My first brand reached out to me for a collab! I am so excited. And a writer for a major website contacted me for another article he is writing. I feel like the program and all my hard work is paying off. I truly am grateful—this program has really changed my career path in such a positive way. I want to say how grateful I am for your guidance, Amy.

Haley Bishoff, RDN, vegan media dietitian and Kendama USA Pro Team member

I am so glad I joined Master the Media Training & Certification—it’s been super helpful. Amy has been amazing. Their guidance and support really have been what I needed for that extra push to get me closer to where I want to be this time next year.

Prior to joining the program, I hadn’t monetized anything I do, including my blog, writing, and TV segments. But now I’m working on monetizing all of these things, thanks to the program. It’s been amazing so far.

And guess what?! So far, I’ve landed a social media partnership with a vegan burger company and a contract position doing nutrition editing for Wiley’s new Living Vegan for Dummies book, and I’m creating a course for DailyOM! These amazing opportunities are all within my plant-based niche.

Nichole Dandrea-Russert, MS, RDN

“One of the biggest successes of the course was figuring out my specific niche and audience.”

When I enrolled in Master the Media, I had just started my private practice with insurance coverage and was brand new to the role of media dietitian. Master the Media unlocked the door and allowed me access to the conversations on marketing and branding I always wanted to be a part of, explaining how to take the credentials and nutrition knowledge I already had and turn it into profit.

I have also been able to fine-tune my writing skills to better disseminate my message to more people than I could previously reach. One of the biggest successes of the course was figuring out my specific niche and audience. For the longest time, I was trying to reach the masses rather than target my effort to and by whom it would best relate and be received. MTM helped me trust myself and the hard work I put in to attain my certifications, boosting my confidence while broadening my perspective on what I could accomplish as an expert with influence.

Maria Emerick, MS, RDN

“Master the Media has given me the tools and community to make working with media easier and more effective!”

I’m only partway into completing the modules, and I can already tell that your course gives me the tools and thought process that I need to succeed. I had always done my own PR, but Master the Media has given me the complete picture, tools, resources, and of course community to make the whole process easier and more effective! Thanks Amy (and team)!

Julie Gabay, owner of Pacific Cycling & Triathlon

“I had quotes in major publications such as Eat This, Not That! within a couple of weeks.”

I had quotes in major publications such as Eat This, Not That! within a couple of weeks of enrolling in the Master the Media Training & Certification! This is because I had access to a team of experts that helped guide me through the process, and I got feedback on my worksheets from Amy and other instructors. If you’re looking for a roadmap to success for working in with the media, I really recommend you enroll in the MTM Training & Certification!

Ashley Harpst, RDN, sports dietitian and owner of Go for the Gold Nutrition

“The program has been so eye-opening and valuable so far, I can’t imagine stopping now.”

I just re-enrolled in Master the Media after completing my initial 6 months of coaching. The course and group have been so eye-opening and valuable so far, I can’t imagine stopping now.

Alyssa Simpson, RDN, certified gastrointestinal nutritionist

“Amy and her team have been instrumental in empowering me. I’m establishing the consulting practice I’ve envisioned for over 15 years.”

Master the Media has been invaluable—providing me with the training, motivation, and support needed to establish the consulting practice I’ve envisioned for over 15 years. As a recent empty nester, I’m eager to explore new professional opportunities after spending the past 10-plus years as a lecturer while balancing family life.

Amy and her team have been instrumental in empowering me. During my first month in the program, I achieved significant milestones. I built a website and launched my blog, a considerable accomplishment because it marks a significant step forward in my new consulting niche. Additionally, I was quoted in EatingWell, a publication I’ve long aspired to contribute to.

In addition to supporting my children’s college education, extra income will enable me to make long-awaited improvements in my life. I also want to demonstrate to my children and myself that opportunities for growth and success can be pursued at any age and stage of life.

Jasmin Ilkay, MBA, MPH, RDN

“Pitching using the coaches’ guidance led to partnerships with SharkNinja, Aldi, and Wonderful Pistachios.”

The Master the Media program provides all the tools on how to get more experience in the media—but more importantly, it gave me the confidence to know that the media needs me just as much as I need them. I started pitching to local news stations and publications using the coaches’ guidance, which eventually led to partnerships with very reputable brands like SharkNinja, Aldi, and Wonderful Pistachios. The coaches truly care about their clients and are accessible to help in any way they can. They are the definition of collaboration!

Gillean Barkyoumb, MS, RDN, media dietitian

“I’ve made $10,000 in brand partnerships so far!”

Master the Media Training & Certification is one of the best investments I’ve made for myself and my business. Why? Because it helped guide me on how to navigate the media landscape. Being somewhat new to this, I didn’t know a lot of things—like how to contact people, proper etiquette, and what to do to best market myself. The live coaching sessions are where I found the most value. I was able to get my questions answered in real time and got support from the other people in my group. Plus, I’ve made $10,000 in brand partnerships so far!

Amanda Sauceda, RDN, gut health dietitian

“This program is such a great confidence booster, shifting your mindset about charging your worth, and empowering you to step outside your comfort zone to make your goals come true!”

This program teaches the basic foundations for the numerous ways you can work with the media and brands, and it’s not just for beginners. One of the most valuable aspects is the Master It! sheets (fun homework assignments) for each module. The instructors film videos to provide personal reviews and feedback, offering detailed suggestions for improvement.

I also love the private Facebook community, with advice in real time to help you navigate partnership opportunities, language for communication, and pricing. And this program is such a great confidence booster, equipping you with the skills you need, shifting your mindset about charging your worth, and empowering you to step outside your comfort zone to make your goals come true!

Arielle Dani Lebovitz, MS, RDN, pediatric dietitian and author of “Where Does Broccoli Come From?”

“One of my favorite things about the program is the transparency about every aspect, including rates. The coaches really pull back the curtain.”

One of my favorite things about the Master the Media Training & Certification is the transparency about every aspect of working with the media and brands, including rates. When you invest in the program, you get real applicable, adaptable information. The coaches really pull back the curtain and show you how media and brand partnerships are done.

Dr. Lisa Leslie-Williams, PharmD, former host of TLC’s “Mom Prescribed” and holistic lifestyle expert

“My first quarter income is up 57 percent—and I’m only three months into the MTM Training & Certification!”

I’m only three months into the Master the Media Training & Certification, and I already have so many wins. My first quarter income is up 57 percent, from $15,556 last year to $24,800 this year! That’s an increase of over $9,000! I have three new brand partnerships and one new editorial outlet that I’m writing for. I’m on pace to have my first-ever six-figure year!

Kelsey Kunik, RDN, writer for Well+Good and Healthline

“You never feel like you’re alone in the process.”

In addition to the great information, the Master the Media Training & Certification has given me access to a great community of fellow media experts who I can collaborate with. From the private Facebook group to the weekly coaching calls, you never feel like you’re alone in the process. Amy does a great job connecting with each student and providing helpful feedback and encouragement throughout the entire program.

Amber Pankonin, MS, RDN, certified executive chef

“I’m so happy I took the leap.”

I’m really glad I enrolled in Master the Media Training & Certification. I’m so happy I took the leap and started. The course materials are really super thorough, and I learned so much.

Madeleine Putzi, MS, RDN, certified lactation counselor

“Even for a newbie in the media field, I have been able to take what I learned and implement it right away.”

Master the Media has been a great course to learn all there is to know about working with the media. My media exposure went from a reach of almost 0 to over 210 million and is continuing to grow weekly. Even for a newbie in the media field, I have been able to take what I learned and implement it right away. Master the Media is a must for anyone trying to break into media. Thank you for everything.

Leah Reitmayer, MS, RD, performance dietitian

“The feedback the instructors provide is amazing. I’m more confident, and I’m so glad I invested in myself.”

I’ve just completed the Master the Media Training & Certification, and I am just amazed at the material that was provided. I’ve been working on my private practice for about six years now, and I’m so glad that I completed the course to invest in myself.

The program itself is full of useful information that bridges the gaps between what I thought I might have known and how to get to the next level. It not only has taught me so much about what I can accomplish in my field, it has made me feel more confident.

One of the things that I love most about the program is the community of support. Not only is Amy very involved, but there are several other instructors who have been very successful and are giving you great information. The feedback and details they give you to be successful moving forward is just amazing. The support has not only grown my practice, it is also is making me feel confident as a dietitian. I am very thankful for all the information in the program, and I am very glad that I invested in myself.

Molly Snyder, RDN, whole-foods dietitian and child nutrition expert

“Without this course, I would never have known where to start.”

Joining the Master the Media program has been such a valuable experience! Working with the media is something I was so unfamiliar with. But, going through this program, I now understand my value as an expert with influence and the ways in which I can partner with brands––in ways I never thought of! I feel much more confident knowing what I can offer to brands and the best ways to price my services. I also better understand how to grow my online presence as a nutrition expert. I have a long way to go, but without this course, I would never have known where to start. Plus, you get to meet really cool people and cheer each other on along the way!

“I’m now having $20,000 months from working with brands and freelance writing. The coaching is so helpful that I signed on for another round of the program!“

Since joining Master the Media Training & Certification, I’ve learned how to give reporters better sound bites. This has resulted in more media mentions than ever before, to an audience of 835 million people! I’ve also secured a freelance writing gig with major publications and have secured a year-long brand partnership.

I’ve earned $7,100 in freelance writing work and $4,500 in brand partnerships, and this is all just beginning. And that was all while spending the first half of last year as a stay-at-home parent with minimal childcare!

The feedback from the coaches on my Master It! sheets (fun worksheets) and in the weekly coaching calls is priceless and helps me feel more confident pitching myself to brands as a healthcare professional with influence. In fact, the coaching is so helpful that I signed on for another round of the program!

“Master the Media helps you narrow down the vast knowledge you already possess and turn it into work, money, and exposure.”

Since I started Master the Media, I’ve had great success, despite limited time on my end and working a full and part-time job. It’s truly up to you as the individual to take this as far as you want.

I love the fact that I have been approached by different brands and companies who are interested in doing work with me. But the fact that I have been able to build my own website from scratch that now reaches thousands of visitors and be featured in media outlets (including Best Life and Glamour) that reach millions of people is awesome.

Master the Media helps you narrow down the vast knowledge you already possess and turn it into work, money, and exposure. The program has helped me gain confidence that I didn’t have before, which is an unexpected success.

“The program really helped me understand what working with brands looks like—how to do it, how to reach out, what to say, how to price yourself, and what you can offer to brands.”

I have learned so much in the Master the Media Training & Certification. The biggest outcomes so far for me have been landing my highest-paying writing contract in my niche about something I really love writing about. That was amazing. I’ve also learned so much about how to get mentioned in the media. My business, messaging, and name have been published in various major publications online, and that’s incredible.

Finally, the program really helped me start to understand what working with brands looks like—how to do it, how to reach out, what to say, how to price yourself, and what you can offer to brands. I’ve learned a lot more, but these are the biggest outcomes for me. I highly recommend this program if you’re interested in working in the media and with brands.

Master the Media Training & Certification is by far the best course I’ve ever taken. As a dietitian, I can’t believe how much I learned and how quickly it started to pay off. Within weeks of starting the course, I was being quoted in major media outlets like Parade, EatingWell, U.S. News & World Report, Forbes Health, and MSN. It was crazy to see that I was reaching an audience of over 2 billion people, all because of the feedback and guidance I got from this course. There are so many opportunities out there for dietitians that we never learn about in school, and what this program has taught me has improved both my business and my confidence.

I don’t yet have a strong social media following, and I was afraid this would really hold me back. But this program taught me how many great opportunities there are that have nothing to do with Instagram or TikTok. Taking this course made me very excited about being a dietitian again.

“I had been trying to get my message out for over four years.”

It’s blowing my mind that I am suddenly being quoted and mentioned in Parade, VeryWell, Reader’s Digest‘s The Healthy, and Eat This, Not That! I have done an interview with CN2 news and a live webinar for a foundation I love. I also got a book deal of my dreams. Plus, my blog page-view numbers had been stagnant for years, and now they are growing again! I had been trying to get my message out for over four years. I credit this growth to the Master the Media program.

“Amy is helping us all as a community come together and support each other in our growth in our entrepreneurship.”

My draw to Amy is really her genuine way of being and her transparency. I’m very inspired by what she’s created and the level of people that she is meeting and the impacts around that. I feel like she is breaking through some of those barriers and helping us all as a community come together and support each other in our growth in our entrepreneurship.

I have been following the amazing work that Amy and her team have been doing for a while now—but hadn’t made the jump until now and I’m SO glad I did. Joining the Master the Media program was a game-changer for my career! The program really gave me the strategy and confidence to show up in the media space not only as a creator but as the medical expert that I am. Thanks to the calls, support, endless resources, and guidance along the way, I’ve landed media opportunities I once thought were out of reach and can’t WAIT to continue to put my new knowledge to work!
