tara stiles q&a

16May12

Tara Stiles is my kind of yogi. She’s down-to-earth, frank and doesn’t buy into the idea that there’s only one way to practice yoga. I enjoyed our chat about her latest book, Yoga Cures, the recent controversy about injuries, and what she’s learned from her friend Deepak Chopra.

q&a with the paleoista

03May12

If you’re a woman who hasn’t been terribly enticed by the “caveman diet,” I can’t say I blame you. But Paleoista blogger Nell Stephenson gave me great tips on how you can make this diet pretty easy to follow — including prep and cooking ideas.

aging well with dr. james firman

27Apr12

On the morning of the Society of Public Health Education’s annual conference in Nashville, I woke up with some of the worst allergy symptoms of my life. Not only was I pretty miserable, but the one place you hate to be sneezing, sniffling and coughing is a public health conference. I wanted to wear a [...]

17Apr12

Who doesn’t love wedges? Well, maybe your podiatrist. But I’m obsessed with how they give me height (yes, I need more) without sacrificing stability. We covered a range of sizes, styles and price-points for our spring/summer round-up.

lisa rinna and harry hamlin q&a

12Apr12

It was just an ordinary Friday afternoon, when lo this email arrived: “Would you like to interview Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin about The Great American Try-On program from Depend to offer self-assurance to the 56 million Americans who live with incontinence?” Why yes, yes I would. It seemed like an odd product/spokesperson pairing, but [...]

best dance dvd workouts

06Apr12

I’m quite devoted to Jazzercise, so it was fun to see how the latest cardio dance DVDs stand up to my favorite workout. I don’t think any of them will replace class for me (I’m social!) but they’re great for travel or days I can’t get out.

spring heels get comfy

03Apr12

Every spring, I have a bad habit of buying a couple of cheap trendy sandals from Target and wearing them out. But after testing out some of these true comfort brands for Spry, I think I’ve converted to quality over quantity. We were truly shocked by how comfortable some of these 3 and 4+ inchers [...]

my 7th TWNA award

02Apr12

Last week, there was a PBS quiz circulating that asked, “Do you live in a social and cultural bubble?” I know my upbringing was fairly sheltered, but I was surprised to realize just how much perspective working at Road King gave me — from walking factory floors to interviewing generations of truck drivers. It definitely [...]
