In Palak Shah's world, beauty is the warp and weft of a textile. The colour of a saree. The thrill of learning a new move in the gym. And the discovery of a product. The founder and CEO of Ekaya Banaras is a dreamer and a doer. Growing up in a family with a lineage of over 120 years in textiles, Palak founded Ekaya in her early 20s and made her up own rules along the way. Which makes this conversation very real. From writing her father a 12-page letter to convince him to let her study abroad, learning to understand skincare ingredients, and dancing a little too much at her wedding, Palak Shah tells us all the best stories on this episode of Skin Deep.
