Warren Bobrow=WB: Why cannabis? What was your (both) of your path to the plant?

Chelsea and Dustin Johnson=DJ and CJ: Our mother shattered her knee cap in the early 2000s and was prescribed increasing amounts of opiates for over 10 years. When the law passed here in Arizona we got her interested in cannabis as an alternative treatment, and she was able to get off all of the narcotics in just under 9 months as a result. It truly saved her life, and inspired us to do our part to help bring responsible cannabis to the mainstream consumer. We opened a retail dispensary & cultivation facility here in Arizona, and HUXTON was launched out of those operations.

Warren Bobrow=WB: What brought you to the cannabis business? Tell me about what you do? How do you see yourself in five years?

Gunner Winston=GW: My background is in finance and I first entered the cannabis space as an investor. I started my career doing investment banking at Morgan Stanley then ultimately ended up co-founding a hedge fund in New York where I spent over a decade building investment funds, growing teams and collaborating with and investing in many of the world’s most successful brands. I chose to retire in 2014 and had just moved to California, and given the pending adult use legalization cannabis became an obvious category for me to watch. Through this analysis dosist quickly caught my attention given its incredible mission to transcend the cannabis industry and empower people to naturally manage their health and happiness. With that, in 2017 I came in first as an investor and shortly after became CEO.

Case Mandel (Co-Founder) speaking with Frank Svandal of “The Art Factory”

Why cannabis? How did you discover the plant? 

I got brought into the amazing world of cannabis from Reggae on the River music festival in Humboldt County. From that festival, I was invited to come work a season up in the hills and from there I was hooked. I was educated by some of the most amazing innovators in the cannabis industry, we’re talking multiple generations of experience. I also have some legendary stories that are better shared over a bonfire then this article. The hills of Humboldt County became my backyard for 5 years and my connection with cannabis became an integral part of my life and now my career. I have never seen a molecule or set of molecules whether manmade or natural to have such wide-ranging benefits and provide something to so many people as I see with cannabis. These experiences have led me to forge a path where I get to use cannabis to help people quit using tobacco. I couldn’t be any more excited to be able to help share this plant with people across the world, and in a way they can be more comfortable with than smoking or vaping. It’s an honor and privilege when I think about how I started with quietly growing and processing cannabis in the hills of Northern California to now working exclusively with Lexaria Bioscience (LXRP) on optimizing the smokeless oral absorption of cannabinoids. It is crazy to imagine where this plant will take me over the next 10 years as well as take us a society.

Five Questions With Wendy Baker, Founder Of Space Gem Ice Water Hash/Natural Fruit And Herb Gelée

I absolutely love your stuff and give your product and your efforts my deepest appreciation. Space Gem was the first gelée I’ve truly enjoyed eating because they doesn’t come across my palate as gritty or too sticky against my fragile dental work. I cannot eat caramels or chew gum for this reason. Her flavors are so well amalgamated in their individual profiles and they really get me chilled. After each tiny nibble comes tangles of flavors. Each little gem is reminiscent of fine French confiture.

International Women’s Day, a global day that celebrates the economic, cultural, social, and political achievements of women, is March 8th. In honor of this day, even if I am a day late, I’m lucky to be able to share the enthusiasm and verve of the following women in cannabis who have faced adversity during their climb to success. I don’t mean that success can be quantified only by monetary means. What I call success occurs when a person is celebrated for their kindness, their humility, and yes, their ability to be something beyond the call of duty. These following women have created something from nothing. And with their talent comes notice— the kind that can’t be bought, because it comes from deep within. May I present these eight, very intriguing, female leaders in cannabis who get it.
