Back in 2020, Kobi Gregory began making scented candles to cope with the stress of distance learning in high school. What started as a hobby quickly became a business with help from her mom, Tasha Harris.


Today, Kobi Co. has a downtown Minneapolis storefront, sells signature candles paired with curated playlists, and hosts popular candle-making workshops.


MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Kobi and Tasha about what it’s like to work together and how they spread self-care through their business.


Guests:


  • Kobi Gregory is co-founder of Kobi Co., a candle and wellness company in downtown Minneapolis.
  • Tasha Harris is co-founder of Kobi Co. and Kobi Gregory’s mother and business partner.
