This is StRest! In this episode, Kerstin Lindquist welcomes speaker, author, and pastor DawnCheré Wilkerson to explore what it means to live well in the middle of long, painful seasons of waiting. With powerful vulnerability, DawnCheré shares her 8-year infertility journey, the emotional toll of private suffering, and how she learned to stop resisting the wait and instead embrace it as sacred ground. Together, she and Kerstin unpack what it means to celebrate when your miracle hasn’t come yet—and why joy, not bitterness, is a choice we make every day. They discuss the culture of hustle, how fear can shrink your life, and the power of community to sustain us when we want to isolate. DawnCheré opens up about the moment she finally shared her struggle from the stage, the healing that came through confession, and how her waiting season set the foundation for the home she has today. Whether you’re waiting for a child, a job, healing, or clarity, this episode will reframe your view of the “in-between” and help you breathe again.
