  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Best of How to Live a Fantastic Life. Dr. Allen Lycka is joined by Jabez LeBret, a dynamic entrepreneur whose journey from being a homeless teen to a successful business owner is truly inspiring. Jabez reflects on how his challenging upbringing, including his mother’s struggles with schizophrenia, shaped his resilience and resourcefulness. He credits his high school science teacher as his first mentor and discusses the critical role of mentorship and community in his growth. Jabez also shares his dedication to empowering female founders, motivated by data on their challenges and his experience running a tuition-free all-girls boarding school focused on entrepreneurship. He emphasizes the importance of building supportive communities where female entrepreneurs can connect and thrive. Jabez’s story is a powerful example of how to lead a fulfilling, balanced life while making a positive impact. About Jabez LeBret began his entrepreneurial journey in 2007 with his first company, which unfortunately ended in failure. Undeterred, he co-founded GNGF, a marketing agency for law firms, in 2010. Under his leadership, GNGF grew to over $1 million in revenue in under three years, earning accolades such as Best Place to Work, the BBB Torch Award, and Business of the Year. In 2018, Jabez sold the agency to open a boarding school for underserved youth. Currently, he runs Aguia Ventures, a conglomerate of multiple companies spanning both B2B and B2C markets, headquartered in Washington.
