Success is easy to admire.
The story behind it is usually far more interesting.
Sammy Poori joins The Outlier Index for a conversation about ambition, sacrifice, resilience, and the decisions that separate those who dream from those who actually do.
We weren't interested in what he's accomplished.
We wanted to know what made him capable of accomplishing it.
Sammy Poori.
Full episode 9.23.26.
Success leaves clues. We're looking for them.
There's a difference between dreaming about what's possible and having the courage to leave the ground.
Entrepreneur. Aviator. Outlier.
Nataliia Sanzo joins The Outlier Index for a conversation about risk, ambition, setbacks, and the relentless drive to build a life beyond the ordinary.
Success requires more than a destination.
Sometimes, you have to create your own flight plan.
Nataliia Sanzo. The Outlier Index.
What makes an outlier? We're about to find out.
Everyone sees the gold medal.
Few see the price paid to earn it.
The failures. The sacrifices. The moments when quitting would have been easier than continuing.
Scott Hamilton knows what it takes to become exceptional.
But what keeps an outlier moving when everything says stop?
We asked him.

Success rarely comes down to one big moment.
It's the small decisions.
Honoree Corder knows a thing or two about what separates those who wish from those who do.
So we asked her the question at the heart of The Outlier Index:
Are outliers born different... or do they become different?
Honoree Corder. The Outlier Index.
The answer might change the way you think about your own potential.
You know the medals.
You know the name.
But you may not know what it took to become Scott Hamilton.
The setbacks. The discipline. The decisions. The mindset.
We went beyond the Olympic gold to find out what makes an outlier an outlier.

Some people follow the path.
Others build the runway.
Entrepreneur and aviator Nataliia Sanzo joins The Outlier Index to talk about ambition, risk, resilience, and what it takes to keep climbing when the easier choice is to stay grounded.
What makes someone willing to bet on themselves and take off?
We asked her.
Nataliia Sanzo. The Outlier Index.
Exceptional doesn't happen by accident.
Everyone wants the outcome.
Few are willing to become the person the outcome requires.
Sammy Poori joins The Outlier Index for a conversation about the choices, pressure, discipline, and persistence that happen long before anyone notices the success.
Because the most interesting part of an exceptional person isn't what they achieved.
It's who they had to become to achieve it.
Sammy Poori. The Outlier Index.
The results are visible. The story behind them isn't.
Some people read the story.
Honoree Corder writes it.
Author. Publisher. Entrepreneur. A woman who has built a career turning ideas into books, and books into impact.
But behind every chapter of success is a story most people never get to read.
What does it take to turn an idea into something that changes lives, build a career around your own vision, and keep evolving when you've already found success?
We asked her.
Honoree Corder. The Outlier Index.
Everyone has a story. Outliers write their own.

The cars get your attention.
The story behind them should keep it.
Entrepreneur. Real estate investor. Avid car collector.
Sammy Poori has built a life most people only see from the outside. But success isn't about what's sitting in the garage. It's about the decisions, risks, discipline, and drive it took to get there.
So what separates the people who dream about it from the people who actually build it?
We asked him.
Sammy Poori. The Outlier Index.
Success leaves clues. We're looking for them.

The exceptional don't wait for permission.

The Outlier Index: Conversations with Exceptional Performers
What separates exceptional performers from everyone else?
The Outlier Index explores that question through candid, long-form conversations with extraordinary people who have achieved uncommon levels of success in business, sports, leadership, entertainment, public service, and life.
Hosted by entrepreneur, author, and TEDx speaker Ali Hemyari, each episode goes beyond résumés, accomplishments, and carefully rehearsed talking points. Instead, the conversation examines the experiences, decisions, failures, habits, sacrifices, and defining moments that shaped each guest.
What made them think differently? What did they do when things went wrong? What were they willing to sacrifice that others weren't? And which characteristics consistently separate outliers from the rest of the population?
The goal isn't simply to tell remarkable stories. It's to uncover lessons listeners can actually apply to their own lives.
Different thinkers. Exceptional performers. Uncommon results.
Welcome to The Outlier Index.
