Description
In this episode of Let’s Talk About The POTS Life, we sit down with Megan, a nurse and recent POTS Life graduate, to trace her path from years of confusing symptoms and misdiagnoses to clarity, structure, and sustainable progress. Megan shares what it was like to “look fine” on the outside while battling debilitating episodes after routine workouts, how she rebuilt with a low-and-slow plan, and the mindset shifts that helped her reclaim daily life. If you’re newly diagnosed or feel stuck, this one’s for you.
