Jim Curtis, the life coach and partner of Jennifer Aniston, is heading to Greece in late November, and the country means more to him than a typical visit. His father and grandfather came from Athens and the island of Lemnos, and Curtis says his Greek heritage is something he carries with pride. In an interview with Giorgos Satsidis for Alpha TV, Curtis explained that his father spent much of his youth in Greece before the family relocated to Boston. His mother's side is French and Irish, but it's the Greek side he feels most drawn to. When asked what he loves about Greek culture, he pointed to two things: family and passion. The intensity of Greek emotions and the centrality of family in daily life are what connect him to the country. Curtis also spoke candidly about a serious health crisis he faced when a rare condition caused lesions on his spinal cord, leaving him unable to walk for a period. He was first diagnosed at age 22, and the ordeal reshaped his entire outlook. What he took from it was not bitterness but humility, and a clearer sense of purpose: helping others navigate their own most difficult moments. On his relationship with Aniston, Curtis described love arriving at a point in his life when he no longer needed to prove his value through another person. Aniston has previously called him "quite extraordinary" in an interview with ELLE. Curtis will appear at the Megaron Athens Concert Hall on Sunday, November 22, 2026, at 1 p.m. The 90-minute interactive session will cover self-awareness, the beliefs that drive decisions, and the internal barriers to change. An audience Q&A is included, and a separate Meet & Greet for 80 attendees will follow, with a signed copy of his latest book included in the ticket. #Greece #JenniferAniston #GreekHeritage
