In collaboration with Athlete EDGE® at EDCare, this powerful conversation brings together elite athletes to speak openly about the realities of competitive sport, eating disorders, and recovery. Hear from Amanda Sobhy, professional squash player; Alice Merryweather, former Olympic alpine skier and Athlete EDGE® Ambassador; and Danny O’Connor, champion boxer and mental health advocate, as they share their personal experiences navigating treatment, managing performance pressures, and finding their way back to sport.
