  "account": "Jessica Cruel is the 37-year-old editor in chief of Allure Magazine, and she resides in Newark, New Jersey. Her day is filled with a variety of tasks, including making decisions, meeting with founders and executives, working with her senior team, testing new beauty products, teaching a class at NYU, working on a book called Single Happy Female, managing three rental properties, and creating social media content. Cruel wakes up around 4:30 a.m. and checks the news, as well as her Instagram and New York Times app. She enjoys scrolling less in the mornings and prefers to meditate or journal, but finds that her mornings are busy with social media and other tasks. After scrolling, Cruel often goes to the gym three times a week for strength training at Rise Fitness. On non-gym mornings, she focuses on her side hustles, which may include preparing presentations, filming content, or managing her rental properties. She also spends time editing her book and filming social media content to promote it. Cruel typically has breakfast at home, consisting of one egg, egg whites, and a carb like an English muffin or toast. She then commutes to the office via light rail and PATH, where she has various meetings and decisions to make throughout the day.",
