ABOUT US
Rooted in Science, Inspired by Life, Powered by Compassion
POTSies was born out of lived experience, science, and an unshakable determination to feel better and help others do the same.
After years of battling the confusing and debilitating symptoms of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), our founder, diagnosed in 2016 at the Vanderbilt Autonomic Clinic, set out to create something that actually worked.
Through years of research, trial and error, and collaboration with medical professionals, POTSies was developed to provide targeted, daily support for the POTS community.
We’re not just a company. We’re patients, researchers, and advocates who know what it’s like to be dismissed, misdiagnosed, and exhausted by solutions that never quite deliver. That’s why every ingredient in POTSies is selected with intention: no fillers, no dyes, no junk, just clean, science-backed support.
Our mission is simple. To empower fellow POTsies with a supplement that reflects both clinical insight and real-world experience. Because you deserve better and we’re here to help you take back your energy and your life.
🩵 Why I Created POTSie
I created POTSie because I never want anyone to feel the way I did, confused, dismissed, and completely alone.
My journey with POTS didn’t unfold slowly. It blindsided me. One minute I was running six or seven miles a day, and the next I passed out taking the trash out and woke up with a concussion.
I remember thinking, What is happening to me? I could conquer a long run, but a garbage bag was my downfall?
At first, I leaned on what’s always gotten me through: mental toughness. I told myself I could power through whatever this was. I don’t like asking for help, and I’ve always believed in the strength of mindset. But no amount of positivity or discipline could fix what was happening because this wasn’t mental. It was physical. Still, after being dismissed by doctor after doctor, even I started to believe maybe I was crazy.
I was told I had anxiety. Depression. Even lupus, by more than one provider. But the hardest part of this condition isn’t the symptoms. It’s not having a diagnosis. Because when you don’t have a name for what you’re going through, you don’t know where to start. And with POTS, getting that diagnosis isn’t easy. It’s often missed or misunderstood, sometimes for years.
When I was finally lucky enough to get into the Vanderbilt Autonomic Clinic in 2016, I remember the medical team asking, “How are you even functioning?” And instead of just nodding along, I said, “Forget how I’m functioning. Let’s figure out how I’m not not functioning.” (Yes, it’s a double negative.) Because I’ve never seen myself as a victim. I didn’t want pity. I wanted answers, a plan, and people who believed in what I was feeling. And they did.
Thanks to an incredible support system and doctors who listened, I got all three. And because of them, I’m standing today.
I created POTSie to be the thing I wish I had when all of this started. A voice that says, “You’re not making it up.” A space that offers hope, support, and real help. Something for the people who are strong but exhausted. Lost but still fighting. People like me who just want to feel like themselves again.
You’re not crazy. And you’re definitely not alone anymore.
