If a job is taken away before you start, did you even have the job to begin with?
In today’s episode, host Rebekah Sebastian sits down with Fela Davis, an audio engineer who turned learning on the job into an art form. With undeniable raw talent, Fela made waves in the music industry, but she knew she needed more to truly break through. Years of hustle, innovation, and sheer determination led her to the brink of her biggest dream—until one unexpected phone call changed everything.
With an infectious laugh and an inspiring drive, Fela shares her journey, resonating deeply with TYFYI co-producer Samantha Gattsek, a fellow alum of Full Sail University.
Stick around for the Not Safe for Work (NSFW) segment at the end of the show, featuring listener voicemails. This week — our anonymous caller got quite the run around when she applied for her first full time job out of college.
Check out Fela’s production company - 23db Productions
