Goldie Barnes, RD

My name is Goldie Barnes, I grew up in small town Northwest Missouri and will always love it here! Growing up, our home promoted a healthy relationship with food, and I carry a love for cooking, baking, and eating with loved ones to this day! I graduated with my Bachelor's from NWMSU in 2021, and am finishing my Master's in the summer of 2024. I became a Registered Dietitian a few years ago and have been passionate about providing the best diet education and counseling since. I have worked in the clinical and long-term care fields in the past 2 years and am excited to use that knowledge to pursue my passion for counseling. In my undergrad and Dietetic Internship, I was introduced to Intuitive Eating as an alternative to dieting and was immediately drawn to the idea that we don't have to eliminate foods from our diet to be healthy, all foods can be healthy if we consume them mindfully! After my intern experience, I have continued to research and learn about Intuitive Eating as I have seen it work wonders in my own life. Now that I see its wonderful benefits I have made it a mission to share this great tool with others!
