he last time I saw Jenna
Wolfe, she was on the
floor demonstrating a
burpee kickout. (Don’t
ask me what that is—I honestly have
no idea. But it looked insanely hard.)
This was Jenna in what she describes
as “beast mode,” where exercise is
intense and tied to the gym (and not
the slightest bit fun, in my opinion). As a
certified trainer, Jenna used to be in beast mode
all the time, but these days, with two toddlers at
home and the same kind of way-too-busy life we
all have, she’s embraced a different philosophy,
one that focuses on easy, doable (read: not

color among
thousands is
no simple feat! To make it
easier, pull from things you
already love: Take a photo
of a favorite rug or painting
and match the colors to a
swatch. Or look at your
closet: You tend to wear the
shades that make you feel
best, so choose one for your
walls. As you narrow down
your options, consider the
paints’ undertones—the
tints you don’t immediately
see (the way teal has green
under the blue). These affect
how the color interacts with

together. Then try these tips

LIGHT IS EVERYTHING!
A paint color can look very different in the store than on your walls! South-facing rooms get loads
of warm sunlight that balances out cooler-toned paints. In a room with less natural light, use warm-
toned colors (like amber) to keep the space from looking stark. Artificial lighting matters, too: Higher-
temperature bulbs (check the packaging if you’re not sure) give off a soft, bluish hue that pairs best with
cool colors. Low-temp lights have an orangey tint that goes with warmer shades. Be sure to test the color
before finalizing your choice: Get a few swatches, tape them to walls and note how the colors look at
different times of day. Settle on the one that looks the best during the time you’ll use the room most.

TIP Lighten the furniture.
Look for pieces with an open weave, glass

attendee encouraged Alice
to start a petition on change
.org urging Apple to fix the
Aida Reminder app. Alice
called it “Kara’s Own Voice,”
and signatures came in
slowly but surely. Kara and
Alice even picketed outside
an Apple store in Denver.
Finally, in May 2015,
Apple emailed Alice to
request a phone call. More
conversations followed.
About a month later, Apple
agreed to restore the voice
reminder function. To
Alice’s and Kara’s delight,
when the app first worked
again, they saw a special
message: “Voice reminders
are back!…(Thanks to Alice
and Kara!).”
Today, the Aida
Reminder app continues
to be the soundtrack of
Kara’s life. On Tuesdays,
her voice informs her, “It’s
Bible study day,” and on
Thursdays, “Get out the
cookie cart” (where she
keeps supplies for baking
treats for local firefighters
and police). The apps Kara
uses, she says, “help me
know what needs to be
done. I don’t have to rely on
anyone else to succeed.”
This month, Alice will
preside over the third
annual FFT conference. “I’ve
realized that spreading the
word about this technology
is my mission,” Alice says.
She’s grateful, too, for
the relief she’s found from a
worry that haunts parents
of children with disabilities.
“Because of technology, I
know Kara can live the life
she wants whether I’m here
on this planet or not,” she
says. “That’s the best feeling
any parent can have.”

her kids, like passing out lollipops at the

The idea charmed me, but also gave me

MOST DON’T EVEN KNOW IT.

FOR US

There’s a virus out there that hasn’t been talked about much, and
you may not have heard about it. A virus that’s serious, like HIV.
It’s hepatitis C (Hep C). It can hide in your body for years, even
decades, without symptoms. And it isn’t tested for in routine blood
work. If left untreated, Hep C can cause liver damage and even lead
to liver cancer.

The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) recommends

all Baby Boomers get tested for Hep C. All it takes is a simple
one-time blood test.

The good news is: if you have Hep C, it can be cured. Ask your
healthcare provider at your next appointment to be tested for Hep C.
It’s the only way to know for sure.

FOR US, IT’S TIME TO GET TESTED.

Kick off the season feeling better

routine from trainer Jenna Wolfe.

P H O T O G R A P H E D BY C H R I S E C K E R T

f you listen closely enough, you can

practically hear the anxious rumbling from
your friends about getting fit in time for
vacation. So many women want to shape up
for the season, but few of you have the
time or energy to get started. And if you’re anything
like me, you spend most of your day doing everything
for everybody else…kids, colleagues, family, friends,
pets. You’re so wrapped up in life that you fail to carve
out time for yourself. It happens!
When I can’t find the motivation to get moving,
I map out two weeks of super-short routines that—no
matter what—I have to find time in my day to do.
Why two weeks? Because it’s just long enough for
your body to get used to exercising again and for you
to see results. Remember, you have to start
somewhere to get somewhere.
These workouts incorporate calorie-burning
moves to target your whole body. To see even greater
changes, repeat both weeks for a full month of
movement. It’s the perfect summer slimming plan!

HOW TO COPE WITH

Your #1 Stress
RIGHT NOW
According to a new Woman’s Day
survey, uncertainty about the cost
of healthcare is taking a toll on
your well-being. The best way
to deal? Make a plan.

obody likes to think about money—but it turns
out no one can stop thinking about it. In fact, a Woman’s
Day survey of more than 1,000 women found that
financial problems were a huge cause of anxiety (82% of
respondents said they’d felt stressed about their finances
in the past year). One key cause: the rising cost of healthcare. Ironically,
all this worrying about the affordability of staying well can harm your
health: Long-term stress has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and
depression. The good news is that regaining control over what you pay
for medical care is easier than you think. Here, expert ideas to help you
start feeling happier and healthier—literally and fiscally—today.
