TBP 174 :: Caroline Treadway - The Film "Light" and Her Own Eating Disorder Struggles

About Caroline Treadway

Caroline Treadway is a writer, a photographer, a film maker, and a climber. She recently released the documentary film "Light" about the eating disorder struggles of high profile rock climbers including Emily Harrington and Angie Payne.

In this interview, we discuss why she made the film, what impact the film has made in her life, and then we go deeper into her own eating disorder as well as my experience with disordered eating behaviors. At the end, we even discuss what we thought about each other in times when we were both experiencing disordered eating behaviors – we've known each other for many years.

This is an incredibly vulnerable conversation, and I want to thank Caroline for her willingness to be open about these topics and for her bravery for creating the film.

According to one study, 16.5% of female rock climbers and 6% of male climbers experience some disordered eating behaviors. This is a big deal, and because shame is such a large component of disordered eating, this interview is a further attempt to destigmatize the topic and bring it into the "light."

If you have not seen the film yet, it's amazing–I loved it–and you can watch it for free here.
