From High School to College: an Update from Amanda Kossoff

The Innovator Next Door is a podcast about outliers think— not just what they build. Hosted by Stanford student Isabella Delbakhsh, these aren’t celebrity founders or household names. They’re students, researchers, investors, and builders who are solving problems that matter.This isn’t a startup playbook. It’s a window into how ideas are born, how people follow their curiosity, and how you can learn to think that way too. Because conversations about going from 0 to 1 shouldn’t only happen in pitch meetings or Stanford classrooms; they should happen at your dinner table, in your group chats, or with your next door neighbor.You don’t need to be in Silicon Valley to build something interesting. And you don’t need to go viral to be worth listening to. This podcast is about making ideas feel relatable, accessible, and maybe even surprising. It’s about catching outliers while they’re still in their beta phase.Isabella sits down with people who are thinking deeply, building intentionally, and in some ways, building the rocket as they are flying it.How do they spot opportunities others miss? What ideas shape their worldview?What content do they consume, and how do they learn?&nbsp;If any of those questions are interesting to you, this podcast is for you. And hopefully, we will also answer the question: “So… how did you think of that and what did you do from there."
