  • Cholesterol Shock: What Women Over 40 Need To Know with Dr. Eve Henry
    Jul 7 2026
    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
    Jun 30 2026
    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
    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.
