Candace Cameron Bure Says Turning 50 Changed Her Definition of Success
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with actress, producer, bestselling author, and podcast host Candace Cameron Bure for an honest conversation about turning 50, preparing for perimenopause, becoming a grandmother, facing imposter syndrome, and choosing purpose over constant achievement. Candace explains why she was nervous about turning 50 and why she now believes every decade has been better than the one before it. After years of chasing goals and building her career, she says success is no longer about money, accomplishments, or the strength of her résumé. It is about legacy, family, faith, and fulfilling the purpose God has given her. Candace shares how she became more proactive about her health as she entered perimenopause. She discusses changing her workouts, getting bloodwork, using supplements, protecting eight hours of sleep, and refusing to schedule work before she has taken care of her body. Kerstin and Candace also discuss why physical, emotional, and spiritual health cannot be separated. Candace previews her upcoming live tour with triple board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Tabatha Barber, where they will answer women’s questions about hormones, midlife health, faith, relationships, and wellness. Candace introduces her new 30-day devotional, Wild Hope, and explains why hope does not have to depend on circumstances. She also shares how singing Scripture has helped her memorize longer passages and why finding new ways to spend time with God keeps her faith from becoming routine. The conversation explores the need for authentic friendships, the courage required to ask others for prayer, and the safe community Candace is building through the Together Community. Candace also opens up about becoming a grandmother and why she sees it as a second chance to be more patient, present, and intentional than she was while raising three children in her twenties. Despite decades of success, Candace admits that she still experiences imposter syndrome and sometimes feels unqualified to be in the room. She explains why her confidence does not come from believing she is the smartest or most accomplished person there. It comes from trusting that God placed her there for a reason.

Elizabeth Aylor Says Eating Less May Be Keeping Women Overweight
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with functional nutrition practitioner and fitness coach Elizabeth Aylor for an honest conversation about eating disorders, chronic bloating, constipation, hormone imbalances, weight-loss resistance, and rebuilding a body damaged by years of restriction. Elizabeth opens up about going from nearly 200 pounds to just 90 while eating 500 calories a day and training seven days a week. She explains why no one could convince her that she had an eating disorder and why she had to reach her lowest point before she was ready to change. Even after returning to a healthier weight, Elizabeth continued to struggle. She lost her menstrual cycle for more than seven years and developed severe abdominal swelling, constipation, food sensitivities, anxiety, and chronic pain. She shares how testing later revealed H. pylori, SIBO, parasites, and other gut imbalances, and how mold exposure and chronic stress eventually caused many of her symptoms to return. Kerstin and Elizabeth discuss why stress can affect digestion, hormones, sleep, and metabolism. They also examine fasting, GLP-1 medications, muscle loss, restrictive diets, thyroid testing, hormone testing, food elimination, protein absorption, and why some women may begin losing weight after eating more. Elizabeth also explains why bloating and infrequent bowel movements should not be ignored, why supplements and probiotics must be chosen carefully, and why women should focus on building a healthy body before chasing a lower number on the scale.

Albany Irvin Reveals Why She Left QVC With Zero Plan
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist reconnects with former QVC host Albany Irvin nearly a decade after their last meeting for an honest and heartfelt conversation about stepping away from television, rebuilding life after divorce, protecting her children, and trusting God through uncertainty. Albany opens up about her decision to leave QVC at 44 without a new job, a finalized custody agreement, or a clear plan for where she would live. She shares how ovarian cancer, multiple surgeries, a shattered tibia, a frightening situation involving her daughter, and years of intense television schedules led her to question whether God was guiding her in a new direction. She also reflects on the pivotal moment that shaped her faith. After a serious car accident at age 16, Albany, her mother, and her sister were taken in by strangers for nearly a month. That act of kindness taught her to trust that God would provide, even when circumstances seemed uncertain. Kerstin and Albany also dive into topics like severe scoliosis, staying active, menopause, muscle loss, protein intake, bone broth, traveling with healthy food, becoming an empty nester, and reinventing life after 50. Albany shares why walking, Pilates, Bible study, and reshaping her inner dialogue have become essential to her well-being.

Cholesterol Shock: What Women Over 40 Need To Know with Dr. Eve Henry
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Dr. Eve Henry — internal medicine physician, preventive health expert, integrative medicine practitioner and medical director at Function Health — for a straight conversation about cholesterol, heart disease, menopause, statins, metabolic health, GLP-1s and what women actually need to know about their labs. Dr. Henry explains why so many women see their cholesterol rise in their 40s and 50s, even if they have always thought of themselves as someone with “great cholesterol.” She breaks down how estrogen affects cholesterol, why perimenopause and menopause can change the picture quickly, and why women should not automatically blame themselves, their diet or their lifestyle when their numbers shift. The conversation covers what really matters on a cholesterol panel, including ApoB, Lp(a), triglycerides, insulin, glucose, A1C and blood pressure. Dr. Henry explains why particle number may matter more than particle size, why ApoB can be one of the most useful markers, and why every woman should know her Lp(a). She also explains genetic risk, polygenic risk scores and when imaging like a coronary calcium scan or CT angiogram may help guide decisions. Kerstin and Dr. Henry also get into the statin debate, including why doctors prescribe them, what side effects can happen, and what other options exist, including Zetia and PCSK9 inhibitors. Dr. Henry shares her own experience with high ApoB and cholesterol medication, why HRT usually does not fix cholesterol, and how thyroid, weight gain, metabolic health, insulin resistance, supplements and GLP-1 medications fit into the bigger heart-health picture.

Harry Slatkin Reveals The Family Fight Behind His Fragrance Empire
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Harry Slatkin — known as the king of home fragrance, co-founder of Slatkin & Co, QVC favorite, business builder and co-founder of Next for Autism — for a heartfelt conversation about fragrance, family, severe autism, stress, faith, health and turning deep pain into purpose. Harry shares how he started his first business at 15, went from finance to fragrance, and helped change the home fragrance industry by bringing candles out of the home department and into the beauty world. He opens up about working with iconic names like Ralph Lauren, Vera Wang, Elton John, Princess Diana, Tory Burch, Christian Dior, Bath & Body Works and more, while explaining why scent is not just a product but an emotional and physical experience tied to the brain. Then the conversation turns personal. Harry talks about his son David’s severe autism diagnosis, the early years of biting, clawing, screaming, medical uncertainty and family stress, and how he and his wife Laura decided they could either sit in their sorrow or get to work. That work eventually helped lead to major autism advocacy efforts, including Next for Autism, Autism Speaks, schools, adult programs, workplace programs and support for families living with autism. Harry also shares how his family handled Laura’s breast cancer, what faith looks like for him, why every family is carrying something, and how honesty helps him manage stress. He explains why he and Laura have watched The Golden Girls almost every night for decades, how he learned to shut his brain off, why sleep matters, and why phones, food, blood work, magnesium, vitamin D and small health changes are all part of the bigger conversation.

Pastor Jonathan Miller Reveals the Church Hurt That Shattered His Family
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Pastor Jonathan Miller — author of Healing Hurts, pastor’s kid, ministry leader and longtime pastor — for a powerful conversation about church hurt, family trauma, forgiveness, leadership, emotional healing and how God can turn deep pain into purpose. Jonathan shares the story of how his life fell apart at age 12 after his father confessed to multiple adulterous relationships inside the church. He opens up about watching people he loved walk out of his life, the pain his family endured, his father’s prison sentence, his mother’s decision to stay, and the 18-year crisis that eventually became a testimony of restoration. Then the conversation turns practical: how church hurt can go both ways, why pastors and their families need grace, how transparency leads to transformation, how pain can become fuel instead of a prison, why crying and emotional honesty matter, and how physical, emotional and spiritual health all work together in healing. Jonathan also explains why pain does not have to control your decisions, why generational wounds can be broken, why leaving a church should be done with honor, and why his non-negotiable morning prayer rhythm keeps him grounded.

Chalene Johnson Says Life Gets Better After Fifty
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Chalene Johnson — New York Times bestselling author, fitness pioneer, host of The Chalene Show, entrepreneur and creator of Camp Be More — for an honest conversation about leaving the fitness industry, body image, GLP-1s, muscle, relationships and why life can get better after 50. Chalene shares why she walked away at the height of her fitness career after realizing that the results being sold to women did not match what she had to do behind the scenes. She opens up about the pressure to become smaller, unhealthy exercise patterns, rapid weight loss, disordered eating and her concerns about how GLP-1 medications are being used. Then the conversation turns practical: creatine, sleep trackers, stress, priority clarity, lifting heavy, Zone 2 walking, mobility, protein, hormone replacement therapy, supplements, social media criticism, elective surgery, preparing the body for recovery and protecting your most important relationships. Chalene also explains why she calls herself “level 57,” why women need strong friendships in midlife and why aging is inevitable — but getting old is not.

Dr. Amie Hornaman Explains The Thyroid-Hormone Connection Every Woman Should Know
This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Dr. Amie Hornaman — known as The Thyroid Fixer — for a direct and personal conversation about thyroid health, hormones, metabolism, weight gain, brain fog, fatigue, cholesterol, GLP-1s, dementia risk, and why so many women are told they are “normal” when they know something is wrong. Dr. Amie shares her own pain-to-purpose story, including gaining weight while training for fitness competitions, being dismissed by six doctors, finally getting diagnosed with hypothyroidism, and discovering that standard thyroid care was not giving her the full answer. She explains why many doctors only test TSH and T4, why she believes women need full thyroid panels, and why symptoms matter just as much as labs. Then the conversation gets personal. Kerstin asks about her own thyroid medication, getting pregnant, family history, cholesterol, coffee, ashwagandha, GLP-1s, peptides, and whether her mother’s thyroid removal could have played a role in dementia and Alzheimer’s. Dr. Amie breaks down T3, T4, reverse T3, natural desiccated thyroid, Hashimoto’s, menopause, insulin resistance, and the questions women should ask before accepting a one-size-fits-all answer.
