The Alcohol ReThink Podcast with Patrick Fox 202. Why You Binge with Amber Abila
Welcome to episode 202 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, where Patrick Fox is joined by Amber Abila, a binge and overeating coach who helps people stop binge eating by changing how they think about food.
In this episode we discuss how habits form, why we often use food to cope (especially after quitting alcohol), and what it actually takes to feel in control again.
You'll also hear how binge eating, like drinking, is often just an attempt to deal with discomfort. Amber shares her story of going from obsessive dieting and bingeing to becoming someone who can eat mindfully, without fear or guilt.
Expect practical tools, honest insights, and plenty of parallels between food and alcohol habits, so if you’ve swapped wine for sugar or feel like you’re just bouncing from one coping strategy to another, this one’s for you.
Awesome Takeaways:
How binge eating and drinking often come from the same root causes
The power of seeing habits as just that, habits, not personal failings
Why scarcity mindset fuels overeating (and over-drinking)
The importance of slowing down and paying attention to what you're doing
Practical ways to build mindfulness into eating (or drinking) habits
Why learning to sit with discomfort is the key to long-term change
