So, I have a confession.
For years, I was in a committed relationship with coffee. We were inseparable. Morning coffee, mid-morning coffee, early-afternoon-sinking-into-a-chair coffee. Our connection was dark, intense, and a little too jittery for comfort. It started off passionate. But like many love stories, it turned toxic.
And like many breakups, mine started with a whisper.
It was 2:42 a.m. on a Tuesday. I had been lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, doing the kind of existential math only the very tired and very wired can do: If I fall asleep now, I’ll get 3 hours and 18 minutes of sleep before my alarm. Can I function on that? How much coffee will I need to compensate? What if I never sleep again?
That’s when it hit me.
I was completely exhausted, yet I couldn’t rest. And all that caffeine? It wasn’t giving me energy anymore—it was giving me anxiety. It was stealing my sleep, robbing my calm, and turning my nervous system into a marionette on caffeine strings. I knew something had to change.
Enter: Sorority by Supz. Specifically, two unassuming little bottles with surprisingly life-altering potential: Ashwagandha and Moringa Pure.
I didn’t know what to expect. I wasn’t looking for a miracle. I just wanted to feel human again.
I wanted to feel like me.
And that’s where the story gets good.
The Ritual Begins
I found Sorority by Supz after a friend in my group chat casually mentioned it. You know that friend. The one who always somehow has energy, glows even under fluorescent lighting, and uses the word “adaptogen” in casual conversation?
She sent a photo of her morning routine: sunlight streaming through the window, her journal open, and two green-topped bottles beside her green smoothie. One said Ashwagandha. The other said Moringa Pure.
“Game changers,” she wrote. “They help me feel… balanced. Like I’ve got roots again.”
That was enough for me.
A few clicks later, the bottles arrived on my doorstep. And just like that, I started a new morning ritual. No pressure. No expectation. Just two capsules of Ashwagandha with water before breakfast. Two of Moringa Pure before lunch.
I didn’t know it then, but I had just invited two small superheroes into my day.
Meet Ashwagandha—The Calm in the Chaos
Let’s talk about Ashwagandha first, because wow.
The first thing I noticed? I wasn’t as reactive. Not in a robot-zombie way, but in a stillness-I-didn’t-know-was-possible kind of way. Someone cut me off in traffic and instead of yelling into the void like I usually do, I just… took a breath. Carried on. No cortisol spike. No drama. It was weirdly peaceful.
Turns out, there’s science behind that.
Sorority Ashwagandha contains 1300 mg of organic root extract per serving—nothing watered down, no fluff. And it’s paired with 10 mg of black pepper extract (95% piperine) to help your body actually absorb it, which I appreciate because who has time for ineffective wellness?
But let’s talk vibes, not just stats.
Ashwagandha feels like the best friend who doesn’t just nod sympathetically when you’re spiraling but sits you down, hands you tea, and reminds you that you are not the problem—your cortisol is.
That’s the magic. It targets the stress hormone that makes everything harder: sleep, mood, focus, resilience. I didn’t even realize how high my baseline stress was until I felt it start to melt.
It didn’t knock me out. It didn’t buzz me up. It just helped me return to myself. The version of me who doesn’t cry because someone used the last of the oat milk.
Cognitive Glow-Up (Yes, That’s a Thing)
Let’s talk about something no one warns you about in adulthood: brain fog.
I used to think brain fog was just part of life. Like gravity, or taxes, or that one drawer in the kitchen filled with dead pens and rubber bands.
But something incredible happened about ten days into taking Ashwagandha.
I started finishing sentences.
I started remembering why I walked into a room.
I could read an entire article without checking my phone three times.
It was like someone turned the lights back on in my brain.
I joked to my partner that it felt like I’d finally gotten my “RAM” back—like my inner processor wasn’t running on fumes anymore.
And that’s the thing. Ashwagandha isn’t just about calming stress—it’s about creating the internal space for clarity. It gave me back focus I didn’t even realize I’d lost.
Then Came Moringa
Right around week two, I added in Moringa Pure—Sorority’s other star supplement. I had zero expectations. I just figured, why not give my cells a little extra love?
But wow, Moringa is not playing around.
Let me describe Moringa in one sentence: it’s like drinking the sun without the UV damage.
Each capsule is made from the vibrant green leaves of the Moringa Oleifera tree, and packed with vitamins A, C, and E, iron, calcium, and antioxidants. Basically, it’s your body’s favorite green juice, without the blender or the mess.
What I loved most?
The energy.
But not the kind of energy that spikes and crashes. No racing heart. No tight jaw. No side-eyeing your fourth espresso shot.
This was grounded, clean, consistent energy.
It was the kind of vitality where I could clean out a closet, finish three work tasks, and still have the bandwidth to call my mom. It was present energy—not forced, not frantic, but available.
The Hormonal Plot Twist
Let’s have some real talk for a second.
Hormones are tricky little beasts. And as someone in her late 30s, I’m starting to feel the shifting sands: sleep gets weirder, moods get unpredictable, and suddenly I’m crying at dog food commercials like it’s a hobby.
Moringa surprised me here. It’s known for anti-inflammatory properties, which support hormonal balance naturally. I didn’t expect much. But two weeks in, I noticed that familiar rollercoaster—edginess, fatigue, unexplained tears—wasn’t as intense.
One month in, I had a cycle that felt… normal. Which might sound boring, but to me it was a small miracle. No emotional tidal wave. No hot flashes. No falling apart at 4 p.m. just because someone breathed near me.
Just calm, consistent, steady days. (What even is that?)
What My Skin, Hair, and Digestion Had to Say
So, here’s a bonus chapter: Moringa turned out to be the gift that keeps on giving.
My skin started glowing. Like, strangers-on-Zoom-asked-what-I-was-using glowing.
My hair? Shinier. Less breakage. Even my edges seemed happier.
And digestion? Smooth sailing. I stopped ending every meal feeling like a human balloon. Everything just flowed better.
Maybe it’s the antioxidant content. Maybe it’s the internal inflammation going down. Maybe it’s just my body finally getting the nutrients it’s been quietly begging for all along.
Whatever it is, I’m not arguing with it.
The Clean Ingredient Club
Let’s take a beat to appreciate this: both Ashwagandha and Moringa Pure are free of gluten, lactose, hormones, antibiotics, allergens, and anything weird.
No mystery powders.
No sketchy binders.
No hidden sugars or dyes.
Just real ingredients in plant-based capsules. Because if you’re putting something in your body every day, it shouldn’t come with side-eye or fine print.
It should feel like a hug. A high-five. A quiet revolution.
What I Didn’t Expect
I didn’t expect to enjoy the ritual so much.
There’s something beautiful about the moment I take these capsules. It’s tiny. It’s ordinary. But it feels like an act of rebellion in a world that constantly demands I put myself last.
It’s my way of saying: I matter, too.
I didn’t expect to look forward to feeling more like myself. Not a more productive version. Not a shinier, polished, social media-ready version. Just the softer, clearer, steadier version that got buried under schedules and responsibilities and late-night scrolling.
And I didn’t expect to feel so supported. Not just by the supplements themselves—but by the spirit of the brand. Sorority by Supz isn’t just selling capsules. They’re offering a culture of care, of empowerment, of women helping women rise.
It’s not about hype. It’s about honesty. And that feels rare.
The Takeaway: The Supplements That Became My Support System
Let me say it plainly.
I didn’t think two green bottles on my kitchen counter could change my relationship with energy, sleep, clarity, hormones, digestion, and even my mood.
But they did.
Not with a bang. Not overnight. But slowly, consistently, like a friend showing up every morning saying, “Let’s try again today.”
So, I broke up with my third cup of coffee.
And in its place? I found something steadier. Something kinder. Something that doesn’t just fuel me, but helps me actually feel like me again.
Ashwagandha and Moringa Pure are now part of my life—and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
Because this time, it’s not about chasing youth.
It’s about choosing vitality.
