Jillian Michaels
Jillian Michaels is one of the leading health and wellness experts in the country. Perhaps considered one of the most demanding people on television for her role as trainer and life coach on the NBC hit series "The Biggest Loser," Michaels has created a brand name for herself and motivates millions of viewers every week on television, approximately one million subscribers on her website and many more with her weekly radio show.
As a motivator and role model, Michaels has a unique connection with her audience that stems from her own personal journey towards wellness. Before she was a TV success, Michaels struggled with her own weight. She was determined to reach her goals -- and through dedication and hard work, she did.
Books, DVDs, video games, meal plans... Jillian Michaels does it all. Already a New York Times bestselling author, Jillian's third book was released in April 2009. Her DVDs are consistently top sellers with Amazon, including her most recent DVD, "30-Day Shred"; and her website (www.jillianmichaels.com) enjoys tremendous success from people looking to Michaels for her online wellness programs and her meal delivery program.
Michaels can be heard on her weekly two-hour radio health and wellness talk show on Clear Channel KFI AM 640, and she is the official AOL Fitness Coach. She is also currently working on the ninth season of NBC's "The Biggest Loser." She also just completed her video game for the Nintendo Wii, "JILLIAN MICHAELS' FITNESS ULTIMATUM 2009."
Recently, Michaels launched Empowered Media, LLC with the goal of creating total life solutions for people across all platforms -- health, wellness, weight loss and overall lifestyle. By imparting her unique and inspiring philosophy to her clients, stressing the integration of fitness, nutrition, and behavioral changes, Michaels empowers each person she works with to define and reach personal goals, both physical and psychological.
Empowered Media allows Michaels to communicate her message of health and wellness to a large audience through different mediums -- online, books, DVDs, gaming, exercise equipment and so on. The company will work towards the goal of creating total life solutions with a circle of experts that will work with Michaels to act as life architects. Her team will be a part of her overall health and wellness brand and will help people to re-structure their lives. The motto: "Inspired by Jillian, empowered by YOU!"
Michaels lives in Los Angeles with her beloved and faithful Chihuahua, Baxter. When she's not on the TV set, she enjoys traveling and getting involved in charitable activities, such as her work as an American Cancer Society Ambassador. Look for Jillian Michaels not only on "The Biggest Loser" but also NBC's "Losing it with Jillian Michaels," premiering in 2010.
