Eating disorders and disordered eating are a real, but often hidden problem in the sport of climbing, and many of us unwittingly perpetuate the idea that less weight is better. In this episode, Caroline Wickes and I sit down to discuss her personal experiences with eating disorders, as well as the things she learned while researching for her Climbing Magazine article, Weighing In: Does Climbing Need an Eating Disorder Intervention?
For help with an eating disorder, contact the NEDA Helpline.
Check out the study from Lenae Joubert referenced in the episode.
Check out the documentary film LIGHT.
