StRest with Kerstin Lindquist

This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Dan Wheeler, former QVC host, author and co-founder of Fearless Faith, for an honest conversation about caregiving, losing a spouse, trusting God and finding love again. The longtime friends revisit their QVC years, including unforgettable moments with 50 Cent and Willie Nelson, before opening up about the experiences that changed Dan’s life.

Dan shares how his wife Beth’s stage four cancer diagnosis shifted his priorities from work to being present with her. He reflects on three years of caregiving, the pressure of putting on a happy face on live television and the grief of watching the world keep moving after his own had stopped.

He and Kerstin discuss asking for help, accepting support from friends and family, and finding comfort in prayer and Scripture. Dan recalls moments he believes were reminders that God had not forgotten him, and explains why the hardest years of his life were also some of the most meaningful years of his marriage.

The conversation then turns to life after QVC, his book Hurricane of Love, the beginnings of Fearless Faith and his Finish Strong podcast. Dan shares how he reconnected with Pam, who had also lost a spouse, and how they built a marriage that makes room for both love and grief.

Dan also opens up about his heart health challenges, fatigue and learning to slow down while continuing to work with his doctors. The episode closes with his commitment to choosing Scripture before his phone, sharing his faith and building a life of purpose. For Dan, finishing strong means continuing to answer God’s call in every season.

This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Jennie Garth, actress, designer and author best known as Kelly Taylor on Beverly Hills, 90210, for an honest conversation about depression, divorce, motherhood and choosing yourself after 50. Jennie shares why she stopped hiding behind a happy face and started making room for a life that feels more like her.

Diagnosed with depression at 18, Jennie opens up about medication, the shame she once carried and why she now speaks openly about her mental health. She and Kerstin discuss protecting sleep, setting work boundaries and quieting a racing mind. They also explore her approach to food, movement and getting back into an exercise routine after surgery.

The conversation then turns to ME by Jennie Garth at QVC, her I Choose Me podcast and her book, I Choose Me: Chasing Joy, Finding Purpose & Embracing Reinvention. Jennie explains why she calls her 50s her “building decade” and reflects on the hardest part of telling her story: falling apart after divorce and piecing her life back together.

Jennie also shares the emotional weight of caring for her mother, who has Alzheimer’s, and accepting that she cannot manage all of her care at home. Kerstin draws on her own caregiving experience as they discuss guilt and giving yourself grace. The episode closes with Jennie’s message about making time for yourself, pushing through self-doubt and learning to have your own back.

This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Dr. Peter A. McCullough, an internist, cardiologist and epidemiologist, for a wide-ranging conversation about Alzheimer’s risk, cancer detection, obesity, COVID-19, vaccines and the daily choices he believes can protect long-term health. Kerstin begins with a clear disclaimer: several of his positions are controversial, and her goal is to help listeners hear another perspective, ask questions and speak with their own doctors.

Dr. McCullough explains why Alzheimer’s is personal. His father died with the disease, his mother is currently living with it, and he is focused on protecting his own cognition. He discusses body weight, alcohol, outdoor movement, ApoE genetics, newer blood testing and the choices people may make when they better understand their risk.

Kerstin and Dr. McCullough also examine inherited cancer risk, whole-body MRI, blood-based cancer testing and why standard screening such as colonoscopy still matters. The conversation then moves into his views on the pandemic, COVID-19 vaccination, routine childhood vaccination, nasal sprays, gargling and public trust in medicine.

The episode closes with where he finds hope and the health practices he considers non-negotiable: food quality, portion control, aerobic and strength training, time outside, sleep and avoiding alcohol. He also explains why he encourages some patients to try 90 alcohol-free days and observe what happens to their sleep.

MEDICAL NOTE

This episode presents Dr. McCullough’s views for discussion, including positions that are controversial. It is not personal medical advice. Speak with a qualified healthcare professional before changing vaccines, medications, supplements, testing or treatment.

This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with beauty entrepreneur Sara Happ for a raw conversation about building the lip-care company that carried her name, losing control of what that name represented, and walking away from the business she created.

Sara shares how a lip scrub she mixed in her kitchen grew into a major beauty brand and led to an eight-year run on QVC. She explains why the QVC set became one of her safest places, what changed after outside investors entered the company, and why she could no longer look customers in the eye and promote products she did not control.

The conversation also turns to Sara’s three-decade battle with endometriosis, her 2023 hysterectomy, and the grief of giving up the possibility of carrying another child. She describes what doctors found during surgery and why women should not dismiss severe pain simply because they have learned to function through it.

Kerstin and Sara also talk about divorce, therapy, family, faith, closed doors, and learning to stop measuring personal worth by revenue, appearance, or performance. Sara shares the two questions that now guide her decisions, why peace became more valuable than a paycheck, and what it means to write a new chapter on her own terms.

This is StRest! Kerstin Lindquist sits down with Liz Roman—better known online as The Poop Queen—for a direct conversation about constipation, bloating, Hashimoto’s, hormones, and what to do when you feel terrible even though your labs are called “normal.”

Liz opens up about being diagnosed with childhood rheumatoid arthritis, struggling with painful periods and chronic constipation, and eventually discovering Hashimoto’s, Giardia, Candida overgrowth, and broader gut dysfunction through functional testing. Her own health journey led her to leave corporate human resources and build a practice focused on helping women understand their symptoms and search for root-cause answers.

Kerstin and Liz break down stool testing, parasites, Candida, elimination diets, and why Liz prefers to support digestion, bowel regularity, hydration, liver function, and nutrient status before using aggressive eradication protocols. They also discuss why adding too much fiber too quickly can make bloating worse—and why the type of fiber matters.

The conversation also connects perimenopause and menopause with constipation, histamine reactions, estrogen clearance, bile flow, liver and gallbladder support, and HRT. Liz shares the lab markers she watches, the supplements she commonly discusses with clients, and why health changes should be guided by data instead of guesswork.
