Dawn Mucci on Life After the Dragon’s Den
Local entrepreneur Dawn Mucci, founder of Lice Squad, recently stepped into the spotlight on CBC’s Dragon’s Den. While she didn’t walk away with a deal, Mucci says the experience was far from a loss.
She joins the podcast to talk about what it was really like facing the Dragons, what she learned from the process, and how the feedback she received is helping her prepare for what comes next. Mucci also shares advice for other entrepreneurs who are thinking about pitching on the show or who may already be on their way into the Den themselves.
It’s an honest conversation about setbacks, growth, and why one “no” doesn’t have to be the end of the story.
Barrie Colts Put Together a Perfect Weekend
It was a banner weekend for the Barrie Colts, with three wins in three nights and a firm grip on first place in the OHL’s Central Division. The Colts are now just five points back of the top spot in the Eastern Conference.
Colts analyst Gene Pereira joins Barrie 360’s Julius Hern to break down what went right, how new faces in the lineup are making an impact, and why the team’s momentum is building at exactly the right time.
For Colts fans, it’s a stretch worth celebrating.
