Show Notes

Ashley developed POTS when she was 13, and was lucky enough to be properly diagnosed in 2-3 months thanks to her tenacious mother. Surviving the Florida heat, Ashley talks about how she has lived her life after diagnosis. College, study abroad in France, and earning a Master's degree are just part of her story!
