Summary of Louann Brizendine's The Upgrade

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Sample Book Insights:

#1 The brain, and the entire human nervous system, is hungry for connection. When we don’t get this essential social vitamin, we become sicker.

#2 I have been listening to the stories of joy and loss, discovery and fear, freedom and disorientation from women in Transition for thirty years. I have witnessed the emergence of real actions we can take to come into our fullness.

#3 The Upgrade is the period in which women are freed from the reproductive phase. It is an opportunity to grow into the wisdom and strength and resilience we’ve been primed for across our life span.

#4 The great benefit of the cloak of invisibility of age is that we find our authenticity within. We no longer are driven by fertility hormones to seek external approval, and so we behave differently and others respond to us differently.
