Rooted Here
Rooted Here, a Bamboo Shoots podcast hosted by Dran Chetty, features deep, one-hour conversations with the leaders, creators, and visionaries shaping our province Saskatchewan.
This series goes beyond surface-level success to share the raw "human story" of local changemakers—from their early beginnings and the hurdles they overcame, to their current passions and the lasting legacy they want to leave on the community.
It is a dedicated space celebrating inspiring growth, resilience, and the people making a genuine difference right where they are.
