In this week’s episode, my special guest is Kuljit Rakhra, Co-Founder of Takasa Lifestyle Company Inc.

They have been featured in Apartment Therapy, Sustainably Chic, The Marilyn Denis Show, HGTV, Ottawa Citizen, The Eco Hub, Elle Decor, National Post, The Globe and Mail, and BC Living, just to name a few.”
