In this episode of The Mind Change Podcast, emotional drivers series, Heather McKean explores the hidden emotional drivers behind POTS, tracing its historical roots from "Soldier’s Heart" in Civil War veterans to its current prevalence in young women. She breaks down how childhood experiences, generational trauma, and societal pressures can shape the autonomic nervous system, leading to chronic dysregulation, anxiety, and physical symptoms. Heather also reveals key subconscious patterns that keep people stuck in cycles of illness—and how Mind Change can help rewrite the narrative for lasting healing.
