On today’s episode, Darren sits down with David Fraser, founder and CEO of Bunkie Life, to talk about how a simple problem — running out of bedrooms — turned into a national phenomenon.

David shares his journey from building the first bunkie for his family, to pitching on Dragon’s Den, scaling manufacturing across North America, and building a company culture obsessed with connection and customer success.

They also dive into:

• How to grow a company while keeping its heart and values intact
  
  

• Lessons from surviving near-bankruptcy and turning it into growth
  
  

• How Bunkie Life’s “Win a Bunkie Giveaway” became a marketing goldmine
  
  

• Why “Made in Canada” still matters
  
  

• Bitcoin, entrepreneurship, and what real wealth means
  
  

• Giving back through the Ronald McDonald House partnership
  
  

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, dreamer, or family business owner, this episode is packed with inspiration, practical wisdom, and a few laughs along the way!
