About this listen

 🎙️ Welcome to Pete vs Anxiety — the mental health podcast that’s breaking the stigma and starting the conversations we don’t have enough of.

Each week, I sit down with mental health experts, advocates, and everyday people to explore their wild, honest, and inspiring mental health journeys. Together, we’re proving that it’s okay to talk about what’s really going on inside.

Because remember — don’t just ask, “How’s your day?”
Ask, “Hey!!! How’s your mental health?” 💭

🗓️ New episodes drop:

Monday, Wednesdays and Friday


There’s plenty of Pete to go around — so tune in, laugh a little, feel a lot, and join the movement to make mental health talk normal

  • "Amber Abila: From Binge Eating to Food Freedom"

    "Amber Abila: From Binge Eating to Food Freedom"
    Dec 29 2025
    In this conversation, Amber Abila discusses the psychological aspects of desire and deprivation, exploring how self-imposed rules can influence our cravings and choices. She illustrates how our perception of value in what we desire can lead to feelings of deprivation, particularly in the context of relationships and food choices.

    Takeaways
    I want more when I tell myself I can't have it or I'm not supposed to have it or it's bad.
    We're artificially putting this rule on ourselves of don't have that.
    We only feel deprived when we can't have something that we want.
    If you're in a happy marriage and someone tells you you're not allowed to cheat, you're like, well, yeah, I don't want to cheat.
    If you're unhappily married and you really want to get divorced and someone says don't cheat, you might feel a little more inclined to break that rule.
    We don't feel deprived because I'm telling you, you're not allowed to eat dirt or grass or raw potatoes.
    It's the perception that this food has something valuable and pleasurable to offer us.
    Denying ourselves that pleasure makes it feel hard.
    The value we assign to our choices influences our feelings of deprivation.
    Understanding our desires can lead to healthier choices.
