Kim Vaccarella is the founder and CEO of Bogg Bag, the durable, washable, and colorful tote designed to carry it all with ease, from beach days to everyday adventures.Kim's journey to building Bogg Bag was anything but linear. A mom of two with a full-time job, she sketched the idea for a sturdier beach tote after one too many sandy, soggy days at the shore. Turning that sketch into reality meant dipping into her children's college savings, navigating failed prototypes, and surviving a shipment disaster that nearly sank the company. She pitched the concept to investors, auditioned for Shark Tank four times, and kept going even when the odds looked impossible. For nearly a decade, Kim built Bogg slowly and steadily on the side, determined to protect her vision and move at her own pace. That persistence paid off. Today, Bogg Bag is a thriving $100 million brand carried in major retailers like Nordstrom, Target, and Dick's Sporting Goods, with millions of bags in the hands of customers across the country.In this week's episode, Kim gets super detailed about the many ups and downs on bringing this business to life - from the risks she took to place her first big order, the moments she nearly walked away, and the lessons she learned about patience, resilience, and staying true to her path. We talk about the turning points that defined her journey—from manufacturing challenges and early rejections to grassroots growth and viral moments, and the leap of faith she took when she left her 26-year career to focus on Bogg full time. Kim also shares why she ultimately turned down a massive nine figure acquisition offer and what it means to build a business on your own timeline. If you've ever doubted your pace or questioned your path, Kim's story proves that slow growth can be just as powerful.In this episode, we'll talk to Kim about:* Why slow and steady growth builds sustainable businesses. [02:27]* Kim's early drive for financial independence. [07:31]* How a beach day sparked the idea for Bogg Bag. [10:14]* Early prototypes and industry rejections. [17:16]* Selling the first 300 bags.

[29:15]* Finding the right long-term manufacturing partner. [32:57]* Auditioning for Shark Tank four times. [36:09]* Raising her first $120K from trusted connections. [37:15]* Leaving her 26-year career. [41:20]* The million-dollar sales milestone and early COVID pivots. [42:12]* Going viral with Peloton moms. [44:25]* Why Kim turned down a $100M acquisition deal.

What does it take to lose the business you built from scratch and then come back to create an even bigger success? This week, we sit down with Hailey Seidel, the founder of Calgary's luxury pet hotel, The Petropolitan, for a masterclass in resilience, branding, and grit.For 20 years, Hailey has been a force in the pet care industry, but her path was anything but straight. Her journey started by accident when she launched a simple dog walking business to solve a personal need. That small venture quickly exploded, leading her to take a massive risk at age 25: signing a lease on a 20,000-square-foot facility. But just as her business thrived, her personal life entered a period of turmoil that ultimately resulted in her being forced to sell the company she poured her life into. Instead of walking away, Hailey channeled that experience into a new vision, identifying a gap in the market for high-end pet care and building The Petropolitan from the ground up.In this episode, you will learn:• How to turn a personal problem into a viable business idea without a formal plan.• The mindset required to take massive risks, like when Hailey leased a giant warehouse as a 25-year-old entrepreneur.• The unfiltered story of navigating the sale of a business during a difficult personal separation and how to pivot from rock bottom.• Why finding and dominating a niche—like creating "The Fairmont for Dogs"—is a powerful strategy for standing out in a crowded market.• Hailey's "Choose Your Own Adventure" philosophy for embracing wrong turns and building a career on your own terms.This is a raw and honest conversation about the un-glamorous reality of entrepreneurship and what it truly means to have "Calgary Grit".How To Connect:Jeff Humphreys - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.jeffhumphreys.ca⁠Hailey Seidel - https://www.thepetropolitan.caPodcast Location - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.modelmilk.ca⁠Podcast Production - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.shortlinecreative.com

Tried It All? How One Veteran Found His Path by Figuring It Out Along the Way What if the biggest barrier to entrepreneurial success isn't having a perfect plan, but being paralyzed by trying to find one? In this episode of Engineer Your Success, Dr. James Bryant talks with Matt Thompson, Navy veteran, management consultant, and franchise owner, about the power of taking action without having all the answers. From missing out on the Naval Academy to opening a men's grooming franchise, Matt shares why "figuring it out along the way" often beats waiting for the perfect opportunity. You'll discover why communication with your spouse is the most overlooked aspect of entrepreneurship, how to pivot when reality doesn't match expectations, and what it really means to "just do it" in business. Whether you're considering a career change or exploring franchise ownership, this episode will help you move from analysis to action.
