Joanna "JoJo" Levesque
About this listen
Read by the author, JoJo.
‘I just needed something to take me out of my mind. And the pattern of telling myself I was going to stop but not being able to eroded any sliver of self-trust I still had . . . I felt ashamed. I couldn’t get over this idea that I was letting everyone down.’
In her breathtakingly candid memoir, JoJo reveals for the first time the personal adversity and public expectations she has overcome, from being recognised worldwide as a teenager to processing mental health, addiction and trauma.
Holding nothing back, JoJo shares her against-the-odds story of adversity and resilience, from being raised by parents who were both battling addiction and depression to the seven-year law suit she found herself locked in with her label, to eventually finding the strength to put the fragmented pieces of herself back together after a period of rebellion and self-betrayal. Over the Influence invites readers on a journey of self-redemption to discover what it truly means to find yourself.

Joanna is a Superstar
Joanna is a force stronger than she realises in this sometimes sad, sometimes happy rollercoaster. Even for someone who follows her career, the revelations strike deeper notes because they're told from her perspective. I'm so happy that she was brave enough to let us in this way. Congratulations Jo on a job superbly done.

Honest, enlightening, more brilliant than ever.
Couldn’t stop listening. Eloquent, determined and resilient in one of the toughest arenas in the world. The only downside is now I want more, more, more.

What a life
Bless Jojo and her career. I think she is a slight victim of the corrupt music industry. I hope she will be able to gain the proper guidance and support that she deserves. I’ve been a fan and still am!!!

She is the moment 🍀
Such a deep, emotive and raw listen on her journey spanning over 3 decades. This book proves JoJo truly has the natural gifts and charisma to take her wherever she wants and is far from a one-trick pony. Singer/singwriter, actor, thespian and now a NYT BEST SELLING AUTHOR! Cannot wait to see what her next project shapes up to be.

A resilient woman
I cant imagine what I must’ve been like for Joanna to be so young in such a messed up industry. She has been through so much, she’s very inspiring. I was lucky enough to see her perform in Dublin last year and was blown away by her talent…as I knew I would be. Delighted to see her work on Broadway, a natural progression for her!

Honest, raw and dazzling!
As a fan, I wanted to hear Joanna's story in her own words. This book is truly heartbreaking, inspiring and uplifting all at once, I have not been able to stop listening! Thank you Jo for giving us a raw and honest look behind the curtain of the music industry and your life. ❤️🍀
