In this deeply personal and eye-opening episode, Brooke Tahir opens up about living with POTS — Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, a debilitating yet often invisible form of dysautonomia.
Far from just a fast heart rate, POTS affects everything from blood flow and energy levels to cognition and temperature regulation — making even basic daily tasks feel like uphill battles.
Brooke shares:
- What POTS actually is, and why it’s so often misunderstood
- The unpredictable symptoms and how they impact work, parenting, and public life
- Why medication wasn’t an option — and the alternative strategies she uses to survive and adapt
- How society's lack of awareness can be just as disabling as the condition itself
Whether you live with chronic illness or want to be a better ally, this episode is a raw, informative, and empowering call to action to rethink what disability and inclusion really mean.
Because not all struggles are visible — but they all deserve to be seen.
