Ameena- “La Patrona”- wears many hats - she’s a rideshare driver, an accountant, and used to run her own non-emergency medical transport business. Ameena loves being her own boss, but experiences the stresses that come with the title, underscored during the pandemic when riders refuse to wear masks. Ameena’s passion for her “hustle” has led her to find ways to uplift the fellow rideshare drivers in her community so they too can drive safely and on their own terms. Roundtable guests: Lewis Howes, of the School of Greatness podcast, and Alissa Walker from New York Magazine.
