Amy Jo Martin: The Reinvention Experiment
Why Not Now Personal Update: My 2026 Experiment ( Ep 344) What happens when you turn your life into a living laboratory? In this special episode, the host becomes the guest. Amy Jo Martin sits down with Sam Gooder to reveal her next big leap: The Reinvention Experiment, a yearlong, open-source quest to rethink time, wealth, wellbeing, and passion by putting herself inside a data-driven Petri dish.
After two decades of entrepreneurial wins, burnout cycles, and reinvention after reinvention, Amy Jo felt an unmistakable signal: she was craving aliveness again. A moment on a plane—and one brutally honest “super prompt” to AI—confirmed it was time. Now she’s shifting from expert mode to student mode. Listeners get a front-row seat.
Amy Jo shares how she’s tracking everything from sleep scores and screen time to joy, relationships, and biological age. She outlines her personal board of directors, her collaboration with AI as analyst and therapist, and why she’s willing to publish her metrics publicly at amyjomartin.com. Nothing staged. No veneer. Just real data, real feelings, and real experimentation in motion.
The Reinvention Experiment isn’t a stunt. It’s a blueprint in progress for anyone questioning their relationship with work, time, relevance, or what “success” even means anymore. Amy Jo opens up about parenting shifts, identity shifts, pausing major business lines, and the fear of becoming “irrelevant”—and why she’s doing it anyway.
