    Perimenopause, GLP-1s & Protein with Natalie Fader

    This is StRest! Registered CBT and Nutritional Therapist Natalie Fader joins Kerstin to tackle perimenopause and menopause with a practical, behavior-first plan. We dig into GLP-1s (Ozempic/Wegovy)—what they do, why rapid weight loss can mean lean-mass loss, and how to protect your metabolism with protein and strength training. We explore sleep and progesterone, the six-week whole-foods reset Natalie used to crush inflammation, and a simple “30-30-30” protein framework that’s doable even if you don’t love cooking. Natalie breaks down collagen’s role for joints, hair, and skin, why L-theanine can steady mood without making you drowsy, and how to pair fasting and workouts without spiking cortisol. You’ll leave with a phased plan: move daily, lift 3–4x/week, front-load protein, manage stress, and sleep like it matters. If you choose a GLP-1, do it with coaching, a resistance-training routine, and a re-entry strategy so you don’t give back your gains.

    Breathwork Detox with Kurtis Lee Thomas

    This is StRest! Author, speaker, and corporate mindfulness trainer Kurtis Lee Thomas joins Kerstin to unpack the power of breathwork as a tool for stress relief, trauma release, and clarity. After years of seeking healing through invasive therapies and global spiritual practices, Kurtis found that conscious breathing was the missing link—and now he teaches Fortune 500 companies, athletes, and everyday people how to use it. We explore his personal healing journey, why so many chronic conditions stem from “energy clots” rather than just physical issues, and how breathwork detox clears suppressed emotions at the root instead of just masking symptoms. Kurtis shares the science of oxygen and cellular energy, how blocked emotions show up in the body, and why breath is the original medicine that connects soul and body. Practical takeaways include why three simple sighs can instantly shift your state, how Navy SEAL breathing techniques (4-7-8, box breathing, and double inhale/exhale) help regulate the nervous system, and why clarity—not just relaxation—is breathwork’s most profound gift. We also discuss how breathwork compares to yoga and meditation, why crying is a powerful release, and how writing down your fears can dramatically lower stress. Kurtis is the founder of Breathwork Detox, chairman of the Just Breathe Foundation, and author of How to Thrive in the Age of Anxiety. He offers regular virtual sessions during the new and full moon to guide participants through this deeply transformative practice.

  3. Skin Stress and Longevity with Dr Brent Ridge

    Skin Stress and Longevity with Dr Brent Ridge

    This is StRest! Physician and longevity expert Dr. Brent Ridge—co-founder of Beekman 1802 and former Mount Sinai faculty—joins Kerstin to connect skin health, inflammation, and aging. He explains why getting off social media may be the lowest-lift stress intervention, how skin pH and the microbiome govern barrier function, and why goat-milk oligosaccharides act as prebiotics for healthier skin. We trace Brent’s pivot from medicine and Martha Stewart Omnimedia to building Beekman 1802 during the Great Recession, then go deep on the science: pH-safe cleansing, microbiome diversity, goat vs. cow milk, and colostrum basics. He lays out a prevention-first longevity playbook—reduce chemical load, prioritize whole foods, use antibiotics judiciously, and cultivate social connection and empathy (“kindness chemistry” boosts serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin while lowering cortisol). Practical takeaways include where to start with “clean beauty” (the products you use most, including laundry), how to think about biomarkers like CRP, why soil quality and minimally processed foods matter, and the few supplements he personally takes (magnesium for sleep). We close with Beekman’s new entrepreneurship book, Goat Wisdom, and the reminder that small-business community building is real success.

    HRT After Cancer with Rachel Frankenthal

    This is StRest! Rachel Frankenthal—gynecologic oncology PA at UCLA and Menopause Society–certified practitioner—joins Kerstin to demystify hormone therapy for cancer survivors, genetic “previvors,” and women navigating midlife. She explains the stark difference between natural and treatment-induced menopause, how to build an individualized HRT plan (timing, route, dosing), and why informed, shared decision-making with your care team is essential. We unpack current guidance for high-risk gene carriers (e.g., BRCA), prophylactic surgery timing, and what proactive screening can look like (including when MRIs make sense for dense breasts). Rachel addresses widespread WHI-era fears, discusses late-start estrogen in select older patients, and walks through a quality-of-life case where a survivor chose HRT after understanding risks. You’ll also hear practical playbooks: how to advocate with data (send studies before your visit, ask for longer follow-ups), when to seek second or third opinions, and the non-negotiables that support recovery and midlife health—anti-inflammatory nutrition, daily movement with strength work, nervous-system regulation, sleep, and thoughtfully used fasting (different for cycling vs. post-menopause). We close with testosterone basics for women and why social platforms can help you find evidence-based clinicians and communities.

    Alina Villasante: Building Peace Love World with Community and Grit

    This is StRest! Alina Villasante—creator of Peace Love World and longtime QVC partner—joins Kerstin to share how a simple, affirmation-led idea grew from trunk shows to a national brand. She traces immigrant beginnings and an aviation-business chapter, then explains the “embrace-the-chaos—with structure” mindset and the five-year grind behind every “overnight” success. We unpack the call from Oprah’s team, why short, honest affirmations (“I am love…”) resonated with celebrities and everyday women alike, and how community—real, local feedback and action—was the engine from day one. Alina also opens up about the strategic partnership that nearly cost her the company, the performance-based clause that saved it, and her pivot to QVC. She speaks candidly about grief, surrender, and choosing service, family, and culture-building at work to restore energy. You’ll leave with practical playbooks: start with community for honest signals, protect your brand with smart contracts, create energy-positive teams, and build daily non-negotiables for mind, body, and soul (movement, strength, protein, and prayer).

    Shanna Pearson shares why so many midlife women are missed—and the practical, ADHD-friendly systems (mood scheduling, state changes, exercise) that help you focus, finish, and feel better.

    This is StRest! Shanna Pearson—founder of Expert ADHD Coaching, the world’s largest 1:1 ADHD coaching company (nearly 500,000 sessions delivered)—joins Kerstin to reframe adult ADHD, especially in women. They unpack why so many midlife women are missed or misdiagnosed with anxiety/depression, the “everything-all-at-once-now” brain, and how ADHD often shows up internally for women (rumination, emotional surges, drama-magnets) versus more external risk-seeking in men. You’ll learn practical, ADHD-friendly systems: mood-based scheduling, “facts over what-ifs,” physical state changes (from stairs to mint+cold water), and why exercise reliably boosts focus. Shanna explains how meds can help you focus—but won’t help you focus on the right thing without skills and structure. If social media hijacks your day, relationships feel like eggshells, or overwhelm stalls you at point A, this episode gives concrete tools—and a path to proper diagnosis—with insights from Shanna’s new book, Invisible ADHD: Proven Mood and Life Management for Smart Yet Scattered Women (foreword by Dr. Daniel Amen).

    Queen of Live TV: Mary Beth Rowe on Faith, Resilience & Retirement

    This is StRest! Mary Beth Roe is QVC’s “Queen of Live TV,” whose 38-year tenure demanded Olympic-level energy, unbroken focus, and unwavering authenticity. In this episode, she reveals the physiology of on-air marathon hosting, how her faith sustained her through power outages and spiritual warfare, and why she chose to retire at 65 to reclaim her family life. Mary Beth walks us through her divine calling to adopt, the grit required to push through vocal burnout, and the pragmatic rituals—closet overhauls, paper purges, strategic sleep, targeted nutrition, and oxygen-chamber therapy—that rebuilt her post-career resilience. If you’ve ever wondered how to align purpose with a secular stage, navigate major life pivots with grace, and cultivate daily habits that support body, mind, and spirit, start here. This is for the woman who’s given everything on command—and now wants practices that let her breathe, rest, and thrive one sustainable step at a time.

    Stress Isn’t the Enemy—Resilience, Love, and the SHIELD Method with Dr. Eva Selhub

    This is StRest! Dr. Eva Selhub is a physician and former director at Harvard’s Mind-Body Medical Institute who teaches a radically practical truth: stress is a neutral signal, not a life sentence. In this episode, she explains stress physiology and allostatic load, why midlife shifts can dysregulate sleep, mood, and metabolism, and how to build true resilience with breath, self-compassion, variability, and spiritual connection. Eva breaks down what changes in our bodies—neuro-endocrine-immune shifts, loss of estrogen, sleep disruption—and how to respond. We cover “puffs of appreciation,” the SHIELD meditation, mindful mornings and strict sleep hygiene, when HIIT backfires in burnout, and the core nutrition/supplement basics most people miss. If you’ve been told “you’re fine” when you know you’re not, or you’re stuck in negative loops despite doing “all the things,” start here. This is for the woman who wants less white-knuckling and more bounce-back—one small, doable practice at a time.
