00:00As I headed into the season, I could feel that voice that wanted me to just disappear.
00:07The film features her life during a high-stakes World Cup season,
00:12exploring her incredible athletic success and superhuman pain tolerance on the ski course.
00:19This voice would say, you have to be willing to suffer.
00:23Sharing her vulnerabilities with the hope of helping others.
00:26Jill Lampert is with the EMILY program.
00:28If somebody can see somebody like Jesse Diggins, this Olympic gold medalist,
00:33has also struggles with a mental health issue.
00:35The film depicts her ongoing recovery from an eating disorder and her navigation of a relapse.
00:42It's really hard, and it can be some of the hardest work that somebody does, and it is entirely worth
00:48it.
00:49People with eating disorders deserve care, they deserve treatment, and they deserve to get help.
00:53And reaching out for help and watching somebody like Jesse do it in such a vulnerable way
00:59can really, I think, help give somebody the courage to do it for themselves.
