Fola opens up about his journey out of Nigeria, the culture shocks he faced moving to Cape Town, and how he learned to navigate both corporate and social environments that were radically different from what he knew. We talk about the mindset it takes to thrive when you're constantly adapting, the invisible codes of workplace culture, and how he’s built strong relationships across borders.Whether you’re thinking about working abroad, already navigating a new environment, or just curious about how tech looks in different parts of the world, this conversation is full of honest reflections and actionable insights.Follow us on Social Media Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beyondthebuildpodcast) TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@beyondthebuildpodcast)Connect with Ope - https://www.linkedin.com/in/osunkoyaope/Connect with Uma: Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/umacodes) Tiktok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@umacodes) Twitter: (https://twitter.com/umacodes) LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/umaabu/)
