In this inspiring episode of the Creative Roots Podcast, Tae sits down with Mya Lamis — a bold content creator with something real to say. What started as a reel-recording session turned into an unforgettable podcast conversation when Mya received a message mid-session letting her know she’d just been laid off from her job.
Instead of breaking down, Mya kept smiling, creating, and dropping gems. She shares how she got started as a digital creator, her perspective on getting fired, and how she plans to pivot into her next chapter with purpose and resilience.
This conversation is all about mindset, creativity, and turning setbacks into setups.
In This Episode:
Meeting content creator Mya Lamis for the first time
Her journey into reels, podcasting & digital storytelling
Finding out she was laid off mid-recording (and how she handled it)
Why losing her job isn’t stopping her grind
Gems for creatives navigating uncertainty
What’s next for Mya after being fired
