965. From 25 Years of Junk Food to Healing Through Nutrition

“I had always wanted to become a doctor, even as a child. So in high school, when the teachers were talking about our careers or going to college, I told my mom I wanted to go to college and become a doctor. And what she said to me was, ‘Honey, you haven’t got the brains to be a doctor. You need to stay home, get married and have children.’ So it wasn’t until I was 53 years old that I finally attended college and ultimately got my masters in nutrition. I graduated summa cum laude in the honors college, and then I became an adjunct lecturer at the university.”
