 What happens when you get fired by Elon Musk? For Billy Samoa, it wasn’t the end… It was the beginning. In this episode of Workplace Weirdness, host Maya Kadar Kovalsky chats with Billy Samoa Saleebey, founder and CEO of Podify, a media company that powers podcast production and promotion. Together, they explore how even the most jaw-dropping workplace experiences can become the spark for reinvention. Billy shares the story of how his career took a sharp turn when he was let go as Tesla’s global head of training—only to find that losing a job doesn’t mean losing yourself. Packed with humor, heart, and hard-won wisdom, this episode is a reminder that even the weirdest work moments can spark major growth—if you’re willing to lean into the discomfort. Key Takeaways Being laid off doesn’t have to define you; it can be a launchpad for new opportunities. Embracing “rookie smarts” and creative approaches to training can catapult your career. Feedback is a gift—creating a culture of open feedback strengthens team performance. Empathy is key when juggling global teams and time zones. When giving feedback, focus on what you want to contribute rather than what you’re missing. Trust your gut in interviews. If something feels off, it probably is.
