If Brady Kneeled
Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time. As a player, his individual stats and team achievements have placed him in talks of the best football player ever! Watching his career and journey in the NFL is impressive. He was barely drafted and only got the opportunity to become a starter when Drew Bledsoe went […]
Because They Believe
Growing up in a religious household, I’ve watched my father ascend from the congregation to decon, a pastor, and now a bishop. The power of belief is undeniable, and even just sharing this business story is a miracle. As an entrepreneur, you solve problems because you believe people (customers, community, your family & friends) will live a better life…
Four Sisters
Across America, approximately 80% of people or 260.6 million people have at least one brother or sister. Nearly 65 million males have at least one sister. Having four sisters is a divine blessing, and through each of them, my perspective in the cannabis world becomes individually unique…
Marijuana in the Media
The media’s relationship with marijuana is going strong. There were racists remarks and propaganda in the 1930s. And don’t forget the “get tough” campaigns during the war on drugs. And now, we are experiencing coverage of legalization and licensing in the states….
The Greatest in the Game | Sports, Entertainment, & Cannabis
Greatness is not natural. A few weeks after the tragic passing of Kobe Bryant, his daughter GiGi and seven other passengers, his eminence, now amplified, displays his dedication. He left behind the motivation to strive to be the best versions of ourselves every day. There is a chance that we share the viewpoints for other […]
Teenage Weed and Work
In early 2000’s I was introduced to weed, weightlifting, and business – all nearly at the same time. Starting as a teenager, the correlation between these three has created a delicate balance in my life. The balance represents an ability to diversify passion, adapt, grow, and to continue a learning process. I realized marijuana consumption and distribution was an […]
Weed Drive-Thru
A drive-through, like fast food? Maine marijuana regulators are proposing a drive-through service. Like fast-food, banking and pharmacies models. Online orders and drive-throughs sound awesome, and we’re all glad marijuana is nothing like fast food, or pharmaceutical drugs or as dry as a bank teller. There have been many nights at Mc’Donalds where the retail […]
Hustling with Homies & Business with Bros
In many ways, my childhood friends are like career advisors, offering a wide range of perspectives and experiences. Some of my friends have successful careers in finance or accounting, while others have been charged with felonies or are college dropouts. A small number of my friends are entrepreneurs, others are retired athletes, in the science field, or might […]
Raising Capital and a Child
On the verge of securing a one million dollar note for the marijuana business, while my son turns two years old in a few weeks. My wife and I are blessed. Our son was likely conceived between one day to a week after getting married. Even though the pregnancy wasn’t easy, the uneasiness became a blessing. Cam was born […]
Sushi and Good Company
Have you felt like the plug at the sushi spot? When in public, I’m perceived to be involved with drugs, I sometimes smell like weed, or I can be having multiple phone conversations working on some deals or some combination of the three, drawing attention from eyes…
