In this episode I talk about what you want to talk about and answer your questions. We cover everything from where to start with Personal Branding to how to identify your Why Not Now? idea and many other topics. I also sprinkle in some of my own personal stories, share my Golden Rule for social media and do a Rapid Fire Round with myself (yep!).

Here are the questions: 

How would you find inspiration if you're a complete solo act? What would you do in your why not now moment if you had no real support that understood what you're doing?

Where do I start with personal branding? I have zero steps so far besides mentally picturing what it should include.

When tempted to get down on yourself, what's your go-to means of pulling up and out of that?

I don’t know what my Why Not Now? idea is, where do I start?

Where did you get the idea for your 'pirates vs. ninjas' question during the rapid fire round in each podcast?

I’m going to be doing this more often so if you have any questions reach out on social media (I’m @AmyJoMartin on Instagram, twitter, facebook & LinkedIN) and I’ll answer your questions on the show.

At age 23, Jenna Kutcher realized she was climbing a ladder that was leaning against the wrong wall and she left her comfy corporate job. Jenna took $300 Craigslist camera and turned it into a 7-figure business. She’s a photographer, podcaster, educator and online influencer. In this episode you’ll hear exactly how Jenna navigated her Why Not Now? moment of leaving her corporate job and starting her own business. She also shares her thoughts on influencer marketing, where it’s going and her top tips for instagram among many other things.

 
One of the things I really appreciate about Jenna is that she’s seemed to have found harmony between hustling, being scrappy and truly enjoying life’s pace without getting burnt out. I came across Jenna after a recent situation where a simple photo of her and her husband went viral. It spread like wildfire across the internet from People Magazine to Fox News and every media outlet in between. Her following has nearly doubled to over a half a million on Instagram. What was it about this photo? The story behind this is quite bizarre and she explains.

Bryan Danielson, also known as Daniel Bryan, is a wildly popular WWE pro wrestler who has held the World Heavyweight Champion title. He has one of the most talked-about wrestling stories in recent history. In 2016 he was forced to retire due to concussion-related injuries but due to his “Why Not Now?” he's now back in the ring. We talk about how this all happened. How he was able to get cleared to wrestle again, what he has learned about the hot topic of concussions and how he navigated conversations with his family about wrestling again.

In this episode, we get to know more about the person behind the personality. Bryan gives us a glimpse into areas of his life that you don’t see on TV. Speaking of TV, you also might know of Bryan from the reality show, Total Bellas. His wife is WWE's Brie Bella. In this episode, Bryan talks about everything from living in his car during his early days of wrestling to what is important to him outside of wrestling, how he scored on his personality test compared to other WWE superstar wrestlers and how many books he reads a year. It’s not everyday I interview a WWE star and I’m glad I got a chance to speak with Bryan.
