Bio: JoJo (Jorgi Hess) : JoJo resides in Arkansas where she was born and raised. Following serving in the Air Force as a SERE Instructor, JoJo started her career in the insurance field. There she broke multiple national records that she still holds to this day. JoJo then went on to become the Chief Sales Officer for two different broadcasting networks. After having much success with this she was inspired by her daughter Maddilyn to create the Stand By Youth Foundation. The foundation is designed to provide housing, college funds, and everyday life skills to foster children who have aged out of the foster system. JoJo and her daughter will officially launch the foundation in March of 2023. JoJo now focuses on her role as the host of The JoJo Show Podcast. Interviewing today's top Entertainers, Entrepreneurs, and Influencers in the world. While also spreading kindness and love throughout each episode. JoJo is proud to see the Podcast gaining worldwide attention. Hosting the JoJo Show has opened so many doors. Once weekly, JoJo’s daughter joins her on the show for a Mommy Daughter episode with the goal of inspiring young children and showing them that anything is possible no matter how old you are. The JoJo Show has opened the door into the UFC, BKFC, and Celebrity Boxing World. Allowing JoJo to provide exclusive interviews with all the amazing fighters. Now JoJo has accepted the amazing job of handling all media/broadcasting and promotions for the Amatuer Bare Knuckle Organization. She is absolutely honored to have the opportunity to be involved with such an incredible sport. JoJo is now hosting another show as well and doesn't plan on stopping any time soon. With partner John Morris in Scotland, JoJo is hosting the Battles We All Face Podcast (previously titled Bridging the Gap).This show is designed to discuss and offer advice on how to deal with everyday problems and circumstances that we all face. JoJo is so thankful for all the amazing opportunities that have been brought her way. Thanking God for guiding her every step of the way. JoJo will never stray from her original two goals. Showing her daughter that anything is possible and spreading kindness to every person that she comes in contact with. She is just getting started and is so excited to see where each adventure leads. Sharing each blessing every step of the way.
JoJo most recently has been part of hosting a program: Can you talk about the program? Also, what platforms can people view your program online?
The JoJo Show allows viewers to hear from today's top entertainers, athletes and influencers around the world. In today's society the removal of social graces has become the norm. Determined to remind the world why treating others with absolute respect is so important. The primary focus always remains to inspire, while spreading love and kindness to all.

JoJo, what book or movies have you been reading or watching? Meaning I am using this interview to find new books or films to watch. What have you been doing?
I have three books that I always recommend people to read when wanting to make a change in their life or seeking growth in any form. These three were given to me by my mentor, Dr. Rickey Perry, when he was kind enough to invest his time in helping turn my life around. Starting with these three books (followed by many more) I learned how to change my mindset to see that I was capable and worthy to achieve all of my dreams and desires.

JoJo,can you talk about your other work in production as a writer or future host (please add your location to where people can see that is in production) ?
I have a few different projects that I am currently working on. One is the Battles We All Face Podcast. (Previously titled Bridging the Gap) On this Show I host alongside my dear friend, John Morris from Scotland. We discuss and offer our advice on how to deal with everyday life problems and experiences. The feedback has been tremendous and knowing that individuals are gaining helpful information is truly so fulfilling. The next project that I am so excited to talk about is the Amatuer Bare Knuckle Organization. My role with this brand new organization is to handle all Media/Broadcasting and all promotions pertaining to each event. It is such an honor to be able to work with Presidents Carlos Leon and Anthony Mills. As well as Matchmaker Bear Barnett and Tryout/Event Coordinator Anthony “The Tiger'' Cruz. I am so thankful for each and every opportunity that is being brought my way.

JoJo what are you doing to relieve stress during this time of home lockdown?
No matter what is causing me to be stressed I always do the same thing. Starting first, spending extra quality time with my daughter. This reminds me that she is the reason that I do anything and everything in life. That everything, whether it be good or bad. It is all tiny pebbles compared to the mountain of love and joy that feels in my heart knowing that I have been blessed with such an amazing daughter.
Dreams: what project or script or actor or actress would be a dream for you to get to work with?
The person that I have always wanted to work with or even have the chance to learn from is Steve Harvey. His story resonates with me on many different levels. But I love and admire the fact that he can inspire any person no matter what their background. He is the perfect example of humility and giving back. He also shows that if you have a vision and the proper team in place all goals can be accomplished. I look forward to the day that I am able to tell him this in person.
JoJo, the classic question: what charity do you work with and can you provide a link to it so others can see too please.
As stated in my Biography next year my daughter and I will be launching the Stand By Youth Foundation. This foundation is going to help so many young adults transition from the foster care system and provide opportunities to them that they may not ever receive elsewhere. But also we always support World Vision. Currently my daughter and I sponsor multiple children around the world. Giving back and serving others is all of our duties here on this earth. I always say that the key to giving back is to do so without expecting anything in return.
