Conversation 45: The Story, Journey and Passion of Jody Gatewood, RD, LD
“ I think the big thing for me was prevention. A number of my family members had diabetes and high blood pressure and it was definitely linked to how they ate. I want to help prevent a lot of health issues that are related to food. I don't want to give medicine to help you with your diabetes or blood pressure, I want to teach you about food, how that can play a big role and help people motivate themselves.” -Jody Gatewood, RD, LD
My conversation today is with Registered Dietitian Jody Gatewood.
Jody and I have met through our great state affiliate the Iowa Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She is taking on planning the annual meeting for next year and I admire her a ton for her willingness to do this. The ironic part of our conversation is that she never planned on staying in Iowa and she has made a comfy home with her husband and 2 kids and is thriving in her career with the Iowa State University Extension. Since I have recently found an interest in the role of Registered Dietitian role in university extension and wish I would have been aware of all the possibilities available to RD’s, I wanted to learn more and learn about the great things Jody is doing professional. She is very passionate about educating and working with Iowans in a group setting and has had a integral role in developing a program called Spend Smart. Eat Smart (which you can access through the link below).
Please enjoy my conversation with Jody.
