  • Chris Gillan — Walking through fear to go from valeting cars to entrepreneur, investor, and mentor

    Fear is a Liar by Ronnie Gyani

    Have you ever woken up in the morning and faced immense fear of the unknown? Or even fear of the known, unsure how you’re going to tackle what lies ahead? Had to come face-to-face with your greatest fears to move forward? Have you been held at gunpoint in the jungle of Honduras?

    Ok, the last one may be unique to our guest on episode #2 of my podcast, Fear is a Liar. We hear how Chris Gillan went from valeting cars to becoming a mentor and Vice President at the Capital Factory, one of the…

    Have you ever woken up in the morning and faced immense fear of the unknown? Or even fear of the known, unsure how you’re going to tackle what lies ahead? Had to come face-to-face with your greatest fears to move forward? Have you been held at gunpoint in the jungle of Honduras?

    Ok, the last one may be unique to our guest on episode #2 of my podcast, Fear is a Liar. We hear how Chris Gillan went from valeting cars to becoming a mentor and Vice President at the Capital Factory, one of the most active startup investors in the State of Texas. Chris shows us how facing your fears and using your negative feelings to lunge toward your goals can lead to success.

    Chris grew up with a desire to always know what was next, what was around the corner. But, growing up in a single-parent household with little extra money limited his ability to explore the world. So when he got the chance to leave home and explore on his own, he did so and never looked back. From the risk of traveling through the jungle of Honduras to leaving his full-time job to start his own business, Chris has overcome fears that kept him up at night to make it to the top.

Today, parking garages are becoming Mobility Hubs where it's not just a place where you park your car. Juan Rodriguez opened our minds to how he and his team at FlashParking are looking to revolutionize the parking industry. “Think about charging… Think about getting your car washed. Think about Amazon dropping off a package inside the trunk of your vehicle. Think about Goodyear installing new tires” all of this and more can be done at a Mobility Hub.
