Bod Behavior

Readers may know Giana from Isabel Chiara's first book, Eat Your Words. She is a woman whose life has been steeped in the food industry; raised by a hardworking family of restaurateurs with strong Italian farmland roots, whose collective love language has long centered around all things edible. Giana recognizes that she's masked her emotions, anxieties, and ambitions in a metaphoric, self-medicating mode of compulsive eating and food obsession. In Bod Behavior, Isabel's second "Giana-based" release, readers experience what happens when a keen, sophisticated, and successful woman becomes determined to apply the skills she has for achieving external accomplishments internally. Bod Behavior offers readers a juicy, relatable, and easy-to-digest narrative, as well as the invitation to venture into the raw wild of our vulnerable places, arriving, by the book's end, in the light of a kind of self-commitment that feels secure, self-directed and generated from the inside-out.

"Bod Behavior is a real hybrid read. I love that it blends a 'can't put it down' story about a woman's life, interviews with experts and sections that actively invite us to look within at how we nourish ourselves." -J. Leonard

"For anyone who is in the work of 'providing' for others, this is must-read book." -Becky King

"Isabel Chiara's generosity as a healer comes through in this therapeutic gem of a story that is especially applicable for anyone ready to make empowered choices and live their best life." -Olivia Fargo
