The High Performing Student Podcast

Sam Demma started this podcast as a young entrepreneur and speaker, and the show reflects that energy — it is made by someone close enough in age to his audience to actually understand what they are going through. Over 192 episodes, Sam interviewed top performers across different fields, from CEOs and content creators to fellow students who were already building something meaningful. The conversations focus on actionable strategies for productivity, decision-making, and personal growth, with a specific emphasis on becoming what Sam calls real-world ready. Guests like JeVon McCormick, CEO of Scribe Media, and Carlos Juico, a content creator with over five million followers, bring concrete stories rather than abstract advice. The show carries a perfect 5.0 rating from listeners who appreciate that Sam manages to be both professional and genuinely supportive. The podcast ran from 2019 to 2022 and while new episodes are no longer dropping, the back catalog holds up well. If you are a student looking for inspiration from people who were not that far ahead of you when they started making their mark, this library is full of honest, energizing conversations that still hit.
