W<\/span>hat is a fit, 30-something doing on the cover of Healthy Aging\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Magazine<\/a>, you ask? Offering plenty of inspiration on how she overcame obstacles in her life to become a mentor to thousands, that\u2019s what.<\/p>\n

Each issue of Healthy Aging\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Magazine features someone who can give you ideas for improving your lifestyle, regardless of your age or theirs. And for this issue, Tunde Oyeneyin<\/a> is it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>At 36, Tunde Oyeneyin<\/a> has become one of the top Peloton instructors, training and inspiring millions worldwide from the pedals of her stationary bicycle. And she has written a memoir of her young life, something usually reserved for those twice her age.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Speak, Find Your Voice, Trust Your Gut, and Get From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be,<\/a>\u00a0Tunde details her rise to her dream job from being a chubby adolescent, becoming a make-up artist, and succeeding on the Peloton stage. Within her first three decades of life, she was forced to face the death of her parents and a brother \u2026 something many of us do not have to experience until much older.<\/p>\n

Tunde dedicates the book to the ones she has lost. \u201cIn losing you, I stepped into the greatest version of myself,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Through her journey, Tunde has developed a philosophy to live a life of purpose that should resonate with all of us. She calls it S.P.E.A.K. \u2013 Surrender, Power, Empathy, Authenticity, and Knowledge. Putting it all together, she hopes to empower others to move forward and achieve the life they want. To that, I might add, even if it\u2019s in the second half!<\/p>\n

Learn more about Tunde in this issue\u2019s feature article and her new memoir, which will make you laugh, cry and feel empowered.<\/p>\n

Fitness<\/h3>\n

Have you tried pickleball yet? If not,\u00a0learn all about it<\/a>\u00a0in our feature on the game catching on, particularly with older adults, like wildfire. Or, you can take some tips from a pro on how ballroom dancing is good for your body, mind, and soul.

\"\"Ballroom Dancing<\/h3>\n

Speaking of ballroom dancing, as I am getting ready for my son\u2019s wedding, I am practicing for the mother-son dance at a ballroom dancing studio<\/a> near here. We\u2019ve been having more fun getting ready for our dance with much-needed lessons (for me anyway).<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve met a number of people at the studio who were inspired by a special event to take the lessons and have continued on to do competitions. They love it, they say, for the physical fitness and for the social side. You will enjoy our article on\u00a0ballroom dancing<\/a>\u00a0in this issue and maybe you will be inspired to grab your dancing shoes too. For me, I am hoping not to trip on my dress and to follow my son\u2019s lead!<\/p>\n

Food<\/h3>\n

Check out the recipes and features from\u00a0Fueling Your Inner Athlete<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Eat More Conquer-Cancer Foods<\/a>\u00a0to fun stuff to do with a multi-cooker like the Instant Pot\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0 and air fryer from\u00a0cookbook author Robin Fields.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Travel<\/h3>\n

We focus on domestic travel in this issue by highlighting three grand resorts<\/a>\u00a0in the U.S. Our travels have taken us from The Omni Homestead, Hot Springs. Virginia to The Greenbrier, White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, and all the way out to the Del Coronado in San Diego. I had a chance to test my skills at fly fishing (even caught a few!), skeet shooting, and being pampered at the Omni Homestead spa. The Greenbrier has been one of our favorites since our children were small and my first experience at the Del was a very special luncheon with my grandparents. I love all of these resorts!<\/p>\n

Notes for Caregivers<\/h3>\n

If you find yourself taking on the caregiver role, we applaud you and know it is not easy. I did this myself for four years for my Dad. I learned that you need to not only help that person look forward as much as possible, but also take care of yourself to take on that responsibility. Your health, mental and physical, is essential too.\u00a0The Parkinson\u2019s Foundation<\/a>\u00a0has created a helpful online course for caretakers. We feature some of the tips from the course in this issue.<\/p>\n

Finance<\/h3>\n

As you plan your future, you\u2019ll appreciate the\u00a010 Tips for Saving Money After Retirement<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0How to Live Big on a Budget.<\/a><\/p>\n
