Amy Jo Martin is the author of New York Times best-seller Renegades Write the Rules, host of the Why Not Now? Podcast, and the woman responsible for getting Shaquille O’Neal and  Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson on social media. Yes, she’s that kind of an OG in the social media world. I learned about Amy Jo when my friend Linda, who works at Headspace, gave me her book. 3 years after reading the book, and shortly after recording this interview, I ended up joining Amy Jo Martin’s Renegade Brand Bootcamp, which had a big impact on how I run my business.
