Yes, Amy Scruggs is polished and professional but she’s comfortable being human. Even as natural as that may sound, coming across as yourself on camera can be daunting even for those totally true to self.

So, how did she get so good? Like a football coach, she studies the tape.

“We all deal with insecurities,” begins Amy. “But when you get into the passion of what you're doing and you're why it resonates with people. And guess what? I'm resonating with you right now and I don't care what my hair looks like."
