How far would you go to turn your passion into a business? For Myles Powell, the answer was all in—emptying his 401k, maxing out his cards, and walking away from a safe career in engineering… all for frozen mac & cheese.

On this week’s Young Boss, Myles reveals the unfiltered truth about building a food brand from scratch—no trust fund, no roadmap, just grit and a love for the dinner table. From a failed BBQ sauce launch to hearing a chef call his first recipe “gross,” Myles learned the hard way how to package, sell, and scale in one of the toughest industries out there: CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods).

We get into the moments most founders won’t talk about—gas station card declines, raising capital when no one’s calling you back, and the painful mistakes that could have sunk him for good. But Myles didn’t just survive—he’s now on a mission to shake up the frozen aisle and bring comfort food to America’s schools.

He’ll tell you why not to treat your business like a baby, why fear is a sign you’re on the right path, and the branding secret that could save you years of wasted time. If you’ve ever dreamed of quitting your job to go all-in, this is the wake-up call (and reality check) you need.
