Edify Unfiltered

Sina Zere didn’t plan to be an entrepreneur. But when she saw a gap in Edmonton’s esthetics market, she opened her own wax bar, Buff Wax Spot. She joins Trudy and guest co-host Heather Thomson, Vice President of Economy and Engagement at Edmonton Chamber of Commerce for a lively conversation ranging from what sets Buff Wax Spot apart from the pack, why Sina will always stick to her inclusive business practices, and why clients don’t want to look at your family photos while they’re getting waxed.
