Many people believe that to succeed as a woman in this modern world, you need to work way more than men. It isn’t uncommon to find women in different spheres of life pushing themselves to achieve their goals, even when it isn’t the least bit convenient. What if there is a way for women to create a better life for themselves by using their unique bodies and hormonal system? This question is what Alisa Vitti aims to answer in this summary. She explains how women can change their lives for the better by keying into their hormonal advantage.
Alisa Vitti is a functional nutrition and women’s hormone expert, the founder of modern hormone health care company FLO Living, bestselling author of “WomanCode.” She is also the creator of “MyFLO,” the highest-paid period app on iTunes, and the first and only period tracking and cycle syncing app. Vitti holds degrees from Johns Hopkins University and the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.
“What’s the greatest lesson a woman should learn? That since day one, she’s already had everything she needs within herself. It’s the world that convinced her she did not.” ~ Rupi Kaur
It doesn’t matter how badly culture has painted the female hormonal system; it is your key to living a more satisfying life

Growing up, Alisa Vitti took all the hardest classes, worked for top grades, and was involved in activities to develop her creative talents. These were all admirable pursuits, but she noticed that her drive came with a cost. The pressure Vitti felt to perform, create, achieve, and work only grew, however, as she continued on through college and into her career. All the while, her health issues became more problematic. She was gaining weight, anxious all the time, couldn’t sleep, and her periods were irregular.
When she got to college, Vitti found an article in an obstetrics journal that indicated her symptoms could be a result of Stein-Leventhal disease, which is now known as PCOS — polycystic ovary syndrome. She reported this to her gynecologist, who confirmed through several tests that she indeed had PCOS. Living with this disease forced Vitti to develop “The Cycle Syncing Method” as a means to stay connected to her feminine energy despite what culture dictates. Vitti believes that every woman needs to understand biohacking and how beneficial it is to them. Biohacking describes a proactive relationship with your body, its systems, and your health. It involves the use of devices, supplements, food, and lifestyle modifications to change the performance of an already normally functioning body system with the aim of enhancing physical performance and achievement in other areas of your life. Its goal is to push the limits of what can be achieved in the 24-hour window.
With some simple lifestyle changes, you can tap into your natural power source to biohack your way to enhance your productivity and enjoy greater success in every area of your life.
Your body and everything it does is nothing to be ashamed of. By living, eating, and working in synchrony with your cyclical nature rather than fighting against it, you can unleash your creativity, fire up your energy, and strengthen your relationships. This summary will teach you how to tap into your power as a woman and reclaim your life. So, keep reading to find out all the ways you can enrich your life and become a better person.
second key point
Men and women have different hormonal cycles that have been misunderstood for far too long
Media and advertising messages hammered it into our heads that a woman’s period was something dirty she needed to hide. This mythology and lack of education keep women from appropriate self-care. Acknowledging the power of the female reproductive process would shift the power dynamics in our global culture.
"In the FLO" by Alisa Vitti is a groundbreaking guide that empowers women to harness the power of their hormones and transform their lives. With a focus on understanding and optimizing the menstrual cycle, Vitti provides practical strategies to improve energy, mood, productivity, and overall well-being. Through a holistic approach, this book offers invaluable insights and tools to help women unlock their hormonal advantage and revolutionize their lives.
Who should read In the FLO
Women seeking to understand and optimize their hormonal health.
Individuals struggling with hormonal imbalances and related health issues.
Anyone interested in harnessing the power of their hormones for overall well-being.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
