Welcome back to the Bulletproof Entrepreneur podcast

We’ve got a fantastic episode, which turned out to be a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and the real story of entrepreneurship.

My guest today is Gary Abela. 

Gary grew up in a family of hoteliers, and he was serving breakfast in the family hotel in London’s King’s Cross at the age of seven. 

After uni, he secured a job in the City and became one of the youngest sales reps in a major US investment firm.

He went on to build a highly successful career in asset management before deciding to walk away from it all to start again.

Gary takes us inside his journey from Berlin property deals to building an AI startup, to navigating failure, burnout, and eventually exiting his own company. 

Along the way, we talk about:

• Why sales is the most underrated entrepreneurial skill.
• What failure really teaches you that success never will.
• The importance of co-founders with complementary values.
• And why true wealth is measured in time, not money.

This is an honest conversation about the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, and what it really takes to keep going when the odds are against you.

Whether you’re scaling a business, preparing for an exit, or just starting your entrepreneurial journey, this episode is packed with insights on risk-taking, resilience, and building a business that lasts.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Mr. Gary Abela
