Jamie Patrice Yuenger is an American podcast host, filmmaker and entrepreneur. Most recently, she started If You Knew Me, a podcast about the inner lives of women. Jamie speaks with women from every race, political background, socio-economic status, sexual orientation and life purpose. Her conversations with guests often focus on the journeys women make into themselves, stepping outside of the narratives they were handed, and how they reclaim who they really are.

In 2010, Jamie founded StoryKeep, a media production company that creates legacy films and private podcasts for multigenerational families of stewardship. Her firm captures personal, family and business stories for private posterity. Her team has worked with over eighty clients in the United States and abroad.

Jamie earned her BA at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she studied Scandinavian Studies (her own heritage), Folklore, and Women Studies. While in college, she worked as an assistant folklorist at the Wisconsin Arts Board where she conducted fieldwork with esteemed Wisconsin folk artists. Her senior thesis was on Latina slam poetry. 

After a year of volunteering in Ghana and India, she moved to La Crosse, Wisconsin, to serve as the Director of a YWCA program for at-risk gay youth. She then worked as a political field organizer for Fair Wisconsin, a marriage equality campaign.

In 2006, Jamie moved to New York City and began editing radio and video documentaries for City Lore's City of Memory project. In 2008, she studied radio production at the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, Maine, after which she was hired as an assistant producer at WNYC, New York's NPR affiliate. Alongside StoryKeep, Jamie was a founding co-host of Brooklyn's daily TV show, BK Live, in 2013.

Today, Jamie lives in the Netherlands with her husband Piet Hurkmans and their daughter. She direct projects across the globe with her trusted team, exploring how people’s stories contribute to their personal growth, family ties and leadership roles.
