Prim Siripipat speaks with former Olympic figure skater and Stanford alum Rachael Flatt about her developing area of expertise: athletes and eating disorders. Currently a Ph.D. clinical psychology student at UNC-Chapel Hill, Rachael has published various articles on body image and eating disorder issues within the athlete population. During this educational interview, the two dispel myths about eating disorders, how the culture of sport plays a role, warning signs, and how parents and coaches can help a struggling athlete. Prim opens up about the body image/eating issues she suffered while competing and offers insight into recovery.
