Click here to text me your thoughts about the show!
Dakshima moved to Canada in 2016 from Sri Lanka. Before moving, She was a private legal practitioner for 8 years, often taking on pro-bono cases to aid underprivileged clients in the community. It wasn't until she immigrated to Canada that she felt there was another path to providing support.
She's a board member in the Gender and Sexual Diversity Board of Calgary Police Services and founder of Dilipani, meaning "A Guiding Lamp" and she calls it a sign of hope for those struggling with their sexual identities.
Listen to learn more from her about her story that she wrote, and refused to be in other people's stories just a footnote.
