In episode 13 (ooh!) of Hilah’s Happy Hour, I interview Melissa Maker, the brains behind the Clean My Space empire. Melissa started a home cleaning business in Toronto in 2006, which led to the creation of the Clean my Space YouTube channel, her own line of cleaning cloths, and most recently to her first book: Clean my Space. Phew! She’s a smart entrepreneur and we talk about how she started her business, why not to disinfect, and the origins of “spring cleaning”?
