Work hard and find stories you want to tell from your heart. The great thing for women is that there are so many stories which haven't been told from our perspective and there is a huge audience just waiting to watch it.
I think sharing experiences is a great thing in order to change things in society.
There have been so many stories about alcoholism and drugs. Eating disorders are also a form of abuse, but rarely a theme in feature films that aren't documentaries.
The subject of eating disorders is very common, and it is an abuse that affects all the people around the sick person, just like alcoholism. Family and friends also become co-addicted.
