Description

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode of the Dietitian Connection podcast, we sit down with father-daughter dietitian duo Dave and Madison Grotto to explore the personal journeys that led them both into the field of nutrition. Dave reflects on his unlikely start at just 14 years old, when a part-time job in a health food store ignited what would become a lifelong career in nutrition, communications, and education. Madison shares what it was like to grow up with a dietitian dad, and how his passion influenced her own path into the field. From intergenerational insights to dinner table dynamics, this episode is a great reminder of how shared values can strengthen our personal and professional lives.

In the episode, we discuss:

  • What it’s really like growing up with a dietitian dad
  • Generational differences in the profession — and what they’ve learned from each other
  • How dietitians today are embracing professional growth with endless possibilities
