Jillian Michaels, just like regular people, manages a hectic work day while also juggling parenting, exercise, and a touch of romance.
As the host of two podcasts, "Keeping It Real: Conversations with Jillian Michaels" and "Back in the Saddle with Jillian and Janice," she begins her day by preparing breakfast for her children Lukensia, 13, and Phoenix, 11, whom she shares with her ex-partner Heidi Rhoades. Despite her busy schedule working with multiple companies like The Fitness App and Alaya Naturals, she still finds time to squeeze in gym sessions and spend special moments with her wife, DeShanna Marie Minuto.

Michaels and her colleagues are always on the go, but not without taking a quick selfie beforehand! "Once work is over, I make it a point to attend either my son's baseball or basketball practice," Michaels explains, "before preparing dinner for the entire family or solely for the children."
