Women's hormones influence far more than fertility, yet many women are never taught how deeply their cycles affect their overall health. In this episode, I sit down with Alisa Vitti, founder of Flo Living and creator of the cycle syncing method, to discuss the connection between hormones, metabolism, menstrual health, and long-term well-being. Alisa shares her personal experience of being diagnosed with what was formerly known as PCOS, the limitations she encountered within conventional care, and how that journey led her to spend decades studying women's hormonal health and developing practical strategies to support it. What you’ll learn: Why the recent name change from PCOS may be more significant than it first appears What ovulation contributes to health beyond reproduction The connection between blood sugar regulation and hormone balance Why some common menstrual symptoms may be worth taking more seriously How cycle syncing is designed to work with changing hormone patterns throughout the month The questions women should consider before relying on medications as a first step What PMS may be communicating about overall hormone function Why daily habits can have a greater impact on long-term hormone health than many people realize If you've ever wondered whether your cycle, symptoms, or hormonal shifts are trying to tell you something important, this episode offers a thoughtful place to start.
