In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty dives into the hidden struggle of binge eating with transformational coach Amber Abila. Amber reveals how binge eating is not a flaw in willpower but a deeply wired brain habit—and how that habit can be undone. This episode challenges the dieting myth and offers a refreshing, science-backed approach that focuses on brain rewiring, not restriction. If you’ve ever battled emotional eating or felt out of control around food, this conversation will help you understand the real root—and the real solution.
About the Guest:
Amber Abila is a transformational coach who helps women stop binge eating and emotional overeating—without diets or therapy. After battling this issue in secret for years, she discovered the root of the problem wasn’t food, but brain wiring. She now guides clients toward food freedom using neuroscience, compassion, and habit change. Amber is also the host of the Become a Confident Eater podcast and offers personalized coaching through her platform, TheConfidentEater.org.
Key Takeaways:
Binge eating is a brain habit, not a character flaw.
Recovery starts by separating your higher brain (goals) from your lower brain (urges).
Rewiring your brain means not acting on urges and celebrating new behaviors.
Diets and traditional therapy often miss the root cause: emotional triggers and thought patterns.
Full food freedom is possible, even after years of restriction—thanks to neuroplasticity.
