Jorge Cruise is a dad, yogi, 13X New York Times bestselling wellness author, renowned fitness trainer, and television personality known for his revolutionary approaches to health and wellness. With a focus on making fitness and weight loss accessible to everyone, Cruise has made a significant impact on the lives of millions of people around the world.
Chapter 1: Early Life and Childhood
Jorge Cruise was born on March 6, 1971, in Mexico City, Mexico. He grew up in a loving and supportive family, who taught him the importance of determination, hard work, and resilience. Jorge's passion for fitness and nutrition began during his early childhood years, as he struggled with weight issues and often felt self-conscious about his appearance.
Tragedy struck Jorge's family when his mother passed away from kidney failure due to the misuse of an over-the-counter drug, ibuprofen. Before her passing, she encouraged young Jorge to meet Oprah Winfrey, as they used to watch The Oprah Winfrey Show together. This dream would later come true, as Jorge appeared on Oprah's show, fulfilling the promise he made to his late mother.
Chapter 2: Discovering Fitness and Nutrition
Jorge's interest in fitness and nutrition intensified during his high school years, where he began to take control of his health through diet and exercise. He experimented with various diets and workout routines in his quest to find the right balance for his body.
It was during this time that Jorge attended a one-day seminar called "Strategic Influence" led by motivational speaker and life coach, Tony Robbins. Inspired by Tony Robbins and a quote from Mark Twain, "Make your vocation your vacation," Jorge decided to pursue a career in health and fitness. He realized that by becoming healthy and fit and sharing his knowledge with others, he would never work a day in his life.
Chapter 3: Establishing a Career in Fitness and Nutrition
After committing to a career in health and fitness, Jorge began working as a personal trainer and nutrition consultant. He quickly gained a reputation for his ability to help clients achieve their fitness goals through a combination of customized workout programs and personalized nutrition plans.
As he continued to work with clients and refine his approach to health and fitness, Jorge began to develop a set of core principles that would become the foundation for his future success. These principles emphasized the importance of a balanced diet, efficient exercise routines, and a strong mental attitude.
In the late 1990s, Jorge decided to share his knowledge and experience with a wider audience by writing his first book, "8 Minutes in the Morning." This book, which focused on simple and efficient workout routines that could be completed in just eight minutes per day, became an instant hit and solidified Jorge's status as a fitness and nutrition expert.
Jorge Cruise is a firm believer in giving back to the community. He supports various charitable organizations and frequently participates in fundraising events. Some of the causes close to his heart include childhood obesity prevention, animal welfare, and disaster relief efforts.
Chapter 5: Personal Struggles and Self-Discovery
While Jorge enjoyed professional success, he faced personal struggles as well. He didn't come to terms with his sexual orientation until he was 39, which led to the end of his marriage with his business partner and mother of his sons. This difficult time in his life was further exacerbated by a second divorce and a battle with alcoholism.
Jorge turned to a 12-step program for help, which allowed him to confront his ego and recognize the need for faith and a higher power in his life. Through this journey, Jorge embraced a daily practice of gratitude and the Serenity Prayer, which helped him find stability and inner peace.
Chapter 6: Finding Spirituality, Renewed Faith, and Embracing Yoga
Jorge also found solace in a regular yoga practice. He credits his daily yoga practice with helping him to cultivate a sense of calm and inner peace, as well as improve his physical health. Jorge has become a strong advocate for the benefits of yoga and encourages others to explore this ancient practice for themselves. Through these new experiences and spiritual practices, Jorge has continued to deepen his understanding of himself and his purpose in life.
Chapter 7: A New Venture – Zero Hunger Water
Jorge Cruise's passion for health and wellness led him to embark on yet another exciting venture – the formation of a beverage company called Zero Hunger Water, LLC. Partnering with David Allred, the co-founder of America's largest direct-to-consumer keto wine company, Dry Farm Wines, they aimed to create a revolutionary beverage that would help people control their hunger.
