What will people say?

Kelowna, BC. This episode introduces Shiva’s incredible rise as one of Canada’s youngest female sommeliers and connects it to the world-famous farm to table and vineyard culture in Kelowna. Shiva looks inward and contemplates the impacts of living in fear of social judgment and a common reprimand of her childhood, "what will people say?” She reaches out to other trailblazers including the family-run Kalala Organic Winery, The Paisley Notebook's Aman Dosanj and Jennifer Deol of There and Back Again Farms. Shiva takes the wheel as she learns to drive and plans a special outing to surprise her mom.
