In this powerful episode, Tyler Boyd shares his raw and deeply personal journey through the highs and lows of entrepreneurship. From launching his first business at 12 years old, running an excavation company with over 100 employees, and nearly losing everything overnight when his bank unexpectedly pulled his line of credit—Tyler’s story is one of resilience, grit, and hard-earned wisdom.
He opens up about the emotional toll of failure, the public scrutiny he faced, and the painful responsibility of laying off employees. But through it all, Tyler fought back. With no credit and few resources, he rebuilt from the ground up, launching Bowline Logistics, which has since grown to nearly 80 employees and 40+ trucks on the road.
Now, Tyler prioritizes purpose over profit, focusing on his team, his family, and using his experiences to mentor struggling entrepreneurs. His journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, learning from failure, and redefining success beyond just business growth.
