Eat Your Words

De: Isabel Chiara

Narrado por: Sabra May

Giana Giovanni wants you to know you’re not alone. If you’ve ever found your heart racing, fingers fumbling to rip open a bag of something crispy, salty, sticky, or sweet; if you’ve ended one reckless night swearing off a corner store the way some attempt to swear off a bad romance, Giana wants you to know, she’s been there, too.

Eat Your Words outlines the history of a first-generation American Italian girl whose early curvaceous entry into womanhood and hearty appetite make for a complex-carb tale about the depth of our relationship with self-nourishment. Often self-derogatory, and certainly comedic, listeners can fall in love with Giana as they relate to her often awkward and outlandish process, simply trying to find herself in the land of milk and honey. Nearing her sixth decade, join Giana as she realizes it is never too late to gain a sense of self-compassion and confront issues of body-image, or attempt to modify outworn behaviors.

Particularly relevant for those involved in the healing arts, Giana’s story will inform as it entertains, leaving the fortified listener one step closer to herself by its end.

I TOTALLY CONNECT WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER!!!

I loved this book. The narrator was like listening to a great friend tell you her story. Giana's story is one so many of us can connect with! Dealing with serious issues like vacillating between soothing and stuffing down her emotions with food and being hooked on diet pills while trying to conform to the worlds view of beauty. Giana's journey of healing, embodiment and learning to love her self is so important. Along her journey of self discovery she picks up so many important tools for healing and shares them in her story. The family dynamics, boy troubles and growing pains that we all go through are told in a relatable, laugh out loud fashion. I'm telling all the women i love to read this for sure!

Puts words to what happens for many women with food

This is a great book that showcases what lessons are in the struggle of a women’s relationship with food.

It is highly relatable and the imagery in the writing gets you to think about your own relationship with food and the voices in your head.

Through reading this book, you get the opportunity to learn and go through the lessons with the main character.
