Does anyone know how to find her podcasts? You Tube?

I'm curious how people think about her new path of faith and health? I'm not inspired by most of the guests she's interviewing. I've listend to a few..and passed on things like interviewing her 15 yr old daughter. It seems that most guests are just pittchg their own book or podcast. And most of her health info is nothing more than reposting things I've already seen on the. internet. I admit I'm not a fan of her style--it seems very much self-centered to me. A lot of her sentences start with "I"...her figure, her habits, her 3000 sq ft home, her pool, etc. And when I heard her proclaim herself to be a high peerforming Chrstian that was a turn off for me. I know she's in it for the money--like so many other online faith "leaders". It's her job. Butt honestly, I'll take Mary Beth's form of humble fath shown in her gentle spirit and approach over the "look at how godly and healthy and rich I am" faith that Kerstin seems to want to push out.

I think you've hit upon a lot of things here. Kerstin left the Q, which was a high paying job, and now it seems she's trying to become a popular influencer in order to make up for her lost income.

Is she a Christian influencer who poses nearly naked on her social media? A health and wellness coach with no medical credentials?A housewife who doesn't cook? An author? A brand ambassador? Where will she land?

This is the typical former QVC host version of "Throw all the spaghetti at the ceiling and see what sticks." It reeks of desperation and materialism, but they are trained, professional salespeople at their core.

If we consider all of the hosts who have left, many of them have pursued these paths of trying to reinvent themselves, only to find that they fail, impressively so. Some have had the grace to fade away into blessed oblivion while others, not so much. Some have swallowed their pride and found ways to return to QVC, either as hosts or OAP's and some (at least one) have become embarrassing grifters.

Which will it be for Kerstin? We will see.

@Suziqzee.. interesting points..
Kerstin was an effective saleswoman and should never have left her high paying job at the Q.

We don't know if she left her job or if her contract wasn't renewed. Maybe her affiliation with Engle brought a negative view towards her and QVC didn't want to renew her contract.

@lgfan….True, good point.

@San Antonio Gal I have not/will not listen to them, but if you have the apple podcast app, you can search there. Kerstin-lindquist dot com is her website, there is a link there too.

Kerstin has always been about "I". Which is one of the reasons I stopped watching her years ago. It was always about her and the fact that she posed in very second drove me nuts. I could not believe she was on that long. She definitely is not missed by me

The fact that some of her posts are done while she's showing her body get to me. She professses to be all about the Lord then turns around and does the total opposite. Which is it? Faith or Fame?

I agree.

She actually had one photo on her Instagram last year where she had pulled her waistband wayyyyy down below what would be an acceptable spot, and I'll just leave that to your imagination. Her caption was, and I kid you not, "Grace and grind."
