In this episode of The Todd Boffo Show, Todd welcomes Ken Diehl—military veteran, accomplished executive, and founder of Diehl Capital. Ken’s career journey is nothing short of remarkable: from grocery bag boy to holding top leadership roles—including Chief Executive Officer, Chief Merchant, Chief Operator, and Chief Marketer—at some of the nation’s largest retailers. He brings decades of experience growing sales and profits at Fortune 500 companies such as Kroger, Albertsons, Jewel-Osco, A&P, and Strack & Van Til.

Ken opens up about how the discipline he learned in the Navy shaped his approach to leadership, why faith and the principle of giving were central to his success, and how he transitioned from chasing achievements to building a life centered on people, gratitude, and legacy. Together, Todd and Ken discuss resilience, leadership growth, risk, and what it really means to leave a lasting mark—both in business and at home.
