Unlacing the Myths

On Your Mark

Our Mission

There is a very blurry line between discipline and disorder in athletics. This makes high school athletes very vulnerable to eating disorders and REDs (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports). Furthermore, these conditions flourish in stigma, shame, and silence. Many teenagers may not have the support that they need to get help because of a lack of awareness. Coaches can be extremely influential in this space because they are powerful figures in an athlete's life. 

 

Project Unlaced exists to spread awareness and educate people about REDs and eating disorders in sports because high school athletes should have the necessary support system to thrive. es in an athlete’s life. ​​

The Facts

Eventually, my body couldn’t keep up with the relentless pace I was setting. I was frequently injured, drained of energy, and deeply anxious about my performance and body. I began to lose the joy that had once driven me to pursue my sport, and, after years of pushing through, I realized I couldn’t ignore the impact this lifestyle was having on my health and happiness.
