Our next guest is Sunny Gakhal, who is the youngest partner at DuMoulin Boskovich LLP, a law firm in downtown Vancouver.

Sunny has also co-founded Myelin Athlete Management, which is a start-up sports management company with offices in Vancouver, Toronto, and Los Angeles. Sunny is currently a sports agent with Myelin Athlete Management.

In this episode we talk about:

Why failing to get a job as a sports agent prompted him to start his own agency

Why the transition from his day job to being an entrepreneur was easier than expected

The lessons he’s learned on his entrepreneurial journey

Why accountability is so important to success

How to overcome fear to achieve anything you want

And a whole lot more...
