Insight with Emma
INSIGHT is the first Armenian-English language power and culture podcast in the United States.
Hosted by Emma Sargsyan - media founder, PR strategist, and owner of Tribune.am, one of the world's most widely read Armenian-language platforms with 30 million monthly readers , INSIGHT brings you long-form conversations with extraordinary guests at the intersection of business, identity, leadership and culture.
Each episode goes beyond the résumé. Beyond the highlight reel. Into the real story - what it actually cost, what it actually took, and what the person sitting across from Emma learned that they could not have learned any other way.
Guests include Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, Marine veterans, fashion designers who kept their dreams secret through military deployments, Freemasons, political activists, financial economists who survived war and revolution, and the builders — seen and unseen — who are shaping the Armenian diaspora and the broader world.
INSIGHT is distributed globally and amplified through Tribune.am's editorial reach across Los Angeles, Yerevan, Moscow, Beirut, Paris and the Armenian diaspora on four continents.
New episodes every week.
If you have ever built something from nothing — or wanted to — this show is for you.
