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.

Alessandra Conti is a celebrity matchmaker and Co-Founder of Matchmakers In The City in Beverly Hills. In 14 years s...
Every three seconds, someone in the world has a stroke. In the next hour — while you watch this — 1,200 people will have one.
Most people think a stroke announces itself. That it arrives slowly. That they will know.
It does not. It arrives in seconds. And the window to reverse it — the window between a person who can speak, move and recognise their family, and one who cannot &mdash...

His name is a mountain in Armenia.
When his family moved from Iran to Los Angeles, there was no English equivalent for the letter. So his parents invented one. Aragad. It became his identity — which is exactly how he has approached everything since.
Aragad Abramian grew up in Los Angeles as an Armenian-American kid born in Iran who was not the tallest player on any court he ever played on. He ...
What your family called protection was actually control.
And most of us spent years - sometimes decades - believing the two were the same thing.

This conversation was filmed two years ago in San Francisco. I am sharing it today because everything Raffi Krikorian told me then is more relevant now than it was when we recorded it.
Raffi Krikorian was employee number 50 at Twitter. He became the company's Chief Technology Officer. He then left to become CTO of Uber — overseeing self-driving car development at one of the most ambitious tec...
Adam Kablanian has spent his career building things nobody can see.
Microchips. Molecular layers that make screens produce light. Embedded memory inside the devices billions of people hold every day. The infrastructure nobody notices until it stops working.
He grew up in Aleppo as an Armenian — which means he grew up as the grandchild of people who survived something unsurvivable, in a city th...

He talks about ...
Armenian Freemasons and the men who orchestrated the Armenian Genocide sat in the same Masonic lodges.
Both believed in brotherhood. Both professed a belief in God. Both paid their dues. And one side used that same network to try to destroy the other.
My guest today is Vram Martirosyan — Freemason, diaspora activist, and one of the most honest people I have interviewed about what this brotherh...
What does it take to be truly unbreakable?
Vahick Yedgarian has survived war. Revolution. Financial collapse. A gun held to his head. He built a financial empire from nothing, earned five advanced degrees while working full time, and turned a small soup brand into a major operation in Russia.
He thought he had seen everything.
Then his wife got sick.
In this episode of INSIGHT, Emma Sargsyan s...
This is not a football story.Yura Movsisyan arrived in California from Baku as a refugee with no organized football experience, no academy, no structure. He became the 4th overall pick in the MLS SuperDraft. He signed for Spartak Moscow - Russia's most iconic club - for €7.5 million, and scored a hat-trick on his debut in front of 80,000 people. Then he was publicly accused of match-fixing by the very fed...
