Summary

Rebuilt: How John Stewart Hill Turned Pain into Purpose and Purpose into Impact

The Not Old Better Show, Art of Living Interview Series

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Art of Living series on NOB Studios. I'm Paul Vogelzang, and today's episode is brought to you by Acorns. Acorns helps you grow towards the money goals you have today — and the ones you'll have tomorrow. …You'll be thinking about long after it ends.

Imagine this: you're lying in a hospital bed. The doctors say it's bad. You've had a massive heart attack. It's 3AM. You're alone. And just when you're ready to let go... a quiet question comes to your heart: Do you want to stay, or do you want to go?

Our guest today, John Stewart Hill, faced that question—and chose to stay. And thank God he did.

He walked out of that hospital not just with physical damage, but with a fire in his soul. What followed was a life transformed by faith, grit, and a mission to serve others. He started The Good Contractors List—a business built on something rare these days: trust. Real trust. Backed by a $10,000 guarantee, no less.

But this isn't just about business. It's about purpose. Redemption. And the idea that no matter your age, your past, or your pain—God's not done writing your story.

This is a powerful one, folks. So settle in. You're going to hear about second chances, real integrity, and how one man rebuilt his heart, his life, and his legacy. You'll be thinking about long after it ends.

🎙️ I'm Paul Vogelzang. This is The Not Old Better Show, and you're going to want to hear every word.
