Dear Inner Circle, When I Finally Understood Why I Felt So Off...
Share
Dear Inner Circle,
Today I woke up and felt… good. Not superhuman, not flawless—but clear, steady, and more me than I’ve felt in a long time.
That hasn’t been the case for a while.
For months—maybe years—I’ve carried this sense that something inside wasn’t quite right. My skin felt different. My moods were unpredictable. By 3 p.m. I was crashing hard, no matter how “healthy” I thought I was living. And the bloating? Constant.
It was like my body had slowly become unrecognisable… and I had no idea why.
I blamed stress. Age. Life.
Until one night, while journaling through another bout of brain fog and irritability, I wrote this question:
“What if this is all hormonal?”
And that question opened a door I didn’t know I needed to walk through.
What I learned since then has changed my life—and I want to share it with you.
There are five key hormones that deeply shape how we age, how we feel, how we glow—and when they’re out of balance, it doesn’t just show up on blood tests.
It shows up in our faces, our sleep, our skin, our cycles, our moods, and our sense of self.
🌿 First was Cortisol—the stress hormone.
It’s meant to keep us alive. But mine had been chronically high for years. I was burnt out and wired, not sleeping well, snappy, and inflamed. My skin looked tired. My belly was always puffy. It felt like my body was breaking itself down.
What helped?
Adding Wild – Organic Wild Yam Root Powder into my daily rituals. It felt like a hug to my nervous system. I paired it with slowing down, breathwork, and sleep—not perfectly, but consistently. And things began to shift.
🍬 Then came Insulin.
I didn’t realise how much blood sugar affects ageing, skin, and energy. Even “healthy” foods were causing crashes. My liver needed support—and so did my metabolism.
Enter Estro Clear. Within two weeks I felt lighter, less reactive, and I wasn’t crashing or craving sugar constantly anymore.
🌸 Then I met my old friend, Oestrogen.
I used to think low oestrogen only happened post-menopause. I was wrong. Mine was dropping in my 30s. I had dry skin, irregular periods, mood swings, joint aches, and fatigue I couldn’t explain. I felt fragile and flat.
Divine Feminine & Collagen became my daily anchor. The herbs in it didn’t just help with the symptoms—they helped me feel held. More myself. More woman.
💧My Thyroid was next.
The fatigue. The dry skin. The brain fog. I had a goiter that scared me. My thyroid needed love—not just iodine, but liver support, gut healing, and deeper nourishment.
Estro Clear helped me clear the build-up. It didn’t happen overnight, but slowly, gently—my energy returned. My eyes looked brighter. My thinking felt clearer. I didn’t dread the mornings.
💪 And lastly—Testosterone.
No one told me women needed it too. But I had low drive, low motivation, and that dull, unshakable “blah” feeling. Cortisol had been stealing from it. My low-fat diet hadn’t helped either.
Wild Yam (in Wild) helped rebuild what stress had stripped away.
Looking back, I realise now: I wasn’t broken. I was out of balance.
And it wasn’t just one thing—it was the whole terrain of my body that needed healing.
The more I listened, the more I softened. I stopped trying to “hack” my hormones and started honouring them. I made space for rest. I nourished myself instead of restricting. I detoxed, hydrated, and slept like it was sacred (because it is).
So sister, if you’re reading this and you feel bloated, foggy, snappy, dull, or disconnected from your body...
Please know: you’re not alone. And you’re not imagining it.
This is the stuff no one teaches us. But I’m sharing it now because it’s too important not to. You deserve to know how powerful your body is when supported. You deserve to age with radiance, not resentment.
This journey back to myself became Kirraganics.
I made the products I couldn’t find. I built the brand I needed during my lowest moments. And I created it for you too.
We’re in this together.
With love,
Kirra xxx
