Listen "I Know How You Feel: I Had to Find a New Normal with Chronic Illness"
Episode Synopsis
After nearly a decade of doctor visits, misdiagnoses, and relentless searching, Francie finally found answers: POTS, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and ulcerative colitis. In this episode, she shares the emotional and physical toll of chasing a diagnosis, the grief of lost time, and how mental health and chronic illness are deeply intertwined. We talk about building a personal toolbox for healing, navigating toxic social media spaces, and the growing (but still flawed) media representation of EDS. It’s a powerful conversation about resilience, identity, and redefining what it means to live fully—even with a body that doesn’t always cooperate.
