Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong
Niiamah Ashong
Outlier's Edge Podcast is a live coaching podcast where we come together in conversation to work through the challenges and apply the gifts of being a unique tribe of high-performing, high-impact entrepreneurs, changemakers, and leaders who choose to play a bigger game of impact, influence, and income than we've ever play before.
What's an Outlier?
An Outlier is a high-performing, high-impact leader who often is:
One of the Only: Thrive in systems/environments that were not designed to have someone like them succeed,
One of the First: Thrive doing things no one else has ever done or dares to even try
One of a Kind: Thrive on their unconventional and independent terms regardless of what others around them are doing
THIS IS A PODCAST FOR PEOPLE WHO:
- aren't afraid of "playing small", but are scared of "thinking medium".
- Are exploring new frontiers in society or their field
- Are at the top of their field or business against typical odds and expectations from others like them,
- Are taking an independent and unconventional approach outside of the status-quo
- know that their mindsets, limiting beliefs, and other internal struggles are actually shared with other leaders who stand for a new vision of the future and change the world for those they lead
HOW EACH PODCAST CONVERSATION IS GOING DOWN
*Part 1- Your Journey*
Features the unique stories of a different trailblazing leader as we explore the *inner* journey they went on as they were creating the outer results we all got to see.
*Part 2 - Your Edge*
Since this group of people are already out on the edge, traditional information doesn’t always serve them. They need new insights and perspectives, and the best way I know how to do that is through coaching.
Each guest will have the option to play on their edge and get coaching around a challenge or a possibility they are working towards.
I'm playing on my edge here as well. I have typically reserved coaching for my high-performing, high-impact clients as closed door sessions.
It keeps my clients safe, and it keeps me safe.
*But safe doesn't change the world.*
Join us as we choose to be both safe AND brave by showcasing the impact coaching has to help us achieve belonging, possibility, and inclusion.
Time to play at a higher level!
*** Bonus since you made it this far ***
Here's a special gift to support you for 14 days in navigating what lies beyond YOUR edge as a high-impact, high-performing leader

A Secret to Experiencing Joy
Listen to the full episode here https://empjoyment.com One of the biggest secrets to experiencing joy for yourself is by spreading joy to others! A really simple avenue for this is through *Appreciation*. Let’s experience #WorldJoy together right now by actively creating it in your world right now. The World Joy movement hereby declares the month of August as *Appreciation August*!!!! We’re about application over information, so let me share how you can participate in Appreciation August. 1) Let a different person each day know how much you appreciate them. 2) It should take you no less than one minute to express your sentiments of appreciation ABOUT THEM. Give them the gift of finding out more about themselves by sharing why you appreciate them as a person in your life - you can give examples to support afterwards. This is likely going to be the hardest part for people - both to give AND to receive. 3) share your appreciation you way- with a gift, a song, a letter, a drawing, a video, an act of service, an all-expense paid trip to a destination of their choice - I’m not going to limit you! Just make sure you actually convey what it is about them that you appreciate. Let’s share our experience of *receiving* appreciation from others using #appreciationaugust I’ll do my best to curate throughout the month as well. And feel free to get a head start now - you can seriously make a difference in someone’s life just be sharing your genuine appreciation.

Fear Less vs Fearless
Welcome to Fear Less February!! We’re focusing the month of February on the topic of Fear and taking continuing to take pioneering action throughout it. The month is geared towards transformation: transforming as individuals, as leaders, as teams, as communities, and as cultures. There’s an important distinction that applies for us Pianeers throughout the month, which will be explored more thoroughly as days go by. Distinction: “FEAR LESS vs FEARLESS” Fear as an emotion and feeling is incredibly powerful. As Pioneer leaders, one of our goals is leveraging ALL of us to create impact, income, and influence. So we don’t want to cut fear out completely. Get ready for an experience that is specifically geared towards helping you play a bigger / different game now rather than later. If you’d like to participate in rather than observe Fear Less February, leave a comment and send a message and I’ll plug you into the experiences we are creating to help you create safe, brave , and free spaces for you and those you lead throughout the month. In the meantime, step into fearing a bit less by sharing a conversation that you feel would be valuable to have and explore for yourself that would take a lot of courage to have with people normally. We’ll look for ways to support that throughout the month. H ere’s to your next frontier- journey on!
