What does success with POTS look like?

It’s not always about being “cured” or symptom-free. Success is relative and it looks different for everyone.

✨ For some, it’s standing without feeling faint.
✨ For others, it’s having energy to cook dinner.
✨ Or simply making it through the day with less brain fog.

These wins deserve to be celebrated just as much as the big ones.

That’s exactly what I created Dizzy-Less Days - to help you find your version of success and support you with practical tools for steadier days.

🌱 Success can look different for everyone.

For some of my patients, success is about easing daily symptoms and finding more energy. For others, it’s reducing flare-ups, or simply feeling more balanced and at home in their body.

In naturopathy, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. It’s about meeting you where you’re at, tailoring nutrition and lifestyle strategies to your unique needs, and celebrating every step of progress: big or small.

💻 I work with people online across Australia, specialising in gut and nervous system health, chronic illness, POTS, and EDS. If you’re ready to explore what success could look like for you, I’d love to support you.

🍲 Congee - one of my favourite healing meals.

This simple rice-based dish has been used for centuries across cultures as a gentle, nourishing food for times of illness, recovery, or when your digestion just needs a break.

✨ Why it’s so supportive:

Rice is easy to digest and provides slow, steady energy.

Bone broth is rich in amino acids and minerals that help support gut lining and immune health.

Ginger & garlic bring warmth, aid digestion, and have antimicrobial properties.

Miso adds depth of flavour along with probiotics for gut health.

Chicken & spring onion provide protein and freshness to round it out.

It’s soothing, comforting, and a beautiful way to nourish both body and mind, especially when you’re run down, recovering, or just needing something gentle. 💛

⚖️ Let’s talk about false dichotomies.

A false dichotomy is when we’re told there are only two options: when in reality, there’s a whole spectrum in between.

In health, this often shows up as:
“You’re either sick or you’re healthy.”
“You’re either cured or you’re suffering.”
“It’s either medication or natural therapies.”

But the truth is: health is rarely black and white. Many of us live in the grey …. managing symptoms, building resilience, and finding ways to increase quality of life while navigating ongoing conditions.

✨ Naturopathy embraces that spectrum. It’s not about rejecting conventional medicine, nor is it about promising a “natural cure” for everything. It’s about finding strategies that meet you where you’re at, supporting your unique needs, and helping you feel better in the ways that matter most to you.

💌 A love letter to the autistic community:
You are not broken. You do not need to be “fixed.”

You are whole, worthy, and deeply valued exactly as you are.

Amidst the noise and harmful rhetoric in the news, remember this:

Your presence enriches the world. Your voice matters. Your life matters. 💜

If you’re reacting to lots of different foods, it’s a sign that something deeper is going on. Instead of cutting out more and more foods, it’s worth asking why your body is responding this way.⁠

Your gut plays a huge role here – from the integrity of your gut lining, to the balance of your microbiome. When things are out of balance, it can show up as so many things - food sensitivities, bloating, changes in 💩 or even fatigue and brain fog.⁠

🧬 This is where functional gut testing can be really useful. ⁠

It explores:⁠
✨ Microbiome diversity & balance⁠
✨ Potential pathogens or overgrowths⁠
✨ Markers of inflammation & digestion⁠
✨ Gut lining health⁠

Instead of guessing, we can get a clearer picture of what’s happening beneath the surface and build a plan that supports your unique gut ecosystem.⁠

People with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) are 7.4x more likely to be Autistic and 5.4x more likely to be ADHDers.⁠

It’s really important to remember that this statistic reflects an association, not a cause. EDS does not “cause” Autism or ADHD, and being Autistic or an ADHDer does not “cause” EDS.⁠

Autism and ADHD are neurotypes 👉 natural variations in the way brains are wired. They are not problems to be fixed, but identities to be understood, supported, and respected. Recognising these overlaps helps build awareness, improves healthcare, and creates better systems of support. ⁠

When we describe neurodivergence as symptoms, we imply something is wrong and needs to be “fixed.” This medicalises difference and can add to the stigma and trauma many neurodivergent people already experience in healthcare.

Shifting to the word traits changes everything. Traits are neutral.

When we view behaviours as traits, our approach to care changes too: instead of trying to eliminate them, we create treatment plans that honour individuality, reduce stress, and support wellbeing.

Language is important. It’s the foundation of trust, safety, and truly person-centred care.
