  • Pastor Jonathan Miller Reveals the Church Hurt That Shattered His Family

    Pastor Jonathan Miller Reveals the Church Hurt That Shattered His Family
    Jun 23 2026
    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

    Chalene Johnson Says Life Gets Better After Fifty
    Jun 16 2026
    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

    Dr. Amie Hornaman Explains The Thyroid-Hormone Connection Every Woman Should Know
    Jun 9 2026
    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.
