Let’s Talk Mental Health

Are we in a Mental Health crisis?

October is Mental Health Awareness Month. October 6 is National Depression Screening Day. October 10 is World Mental Health Day. With all the focus on mental health, you’d think society thriving. Instead, Americans struggle more than ever.

For over two years the pandemic isolated us. Political polarization divides us. Inflation contributes to financial stress and the endless scroll of social media leaves society in a constant state of comparison. Is it any surprise we are mentally sick?

Why I Moved to an Illegal State

During the pandemic, my priorities shifted so I took the plunge and moved to an illegal state

Hello blog readers, it’s been a while! After seven years in my home state, I said “so long” to cannabis-friendly Washington and made the move to an illegal state. Now I’m off to get highdaho in Idaho.

I landed in Wallace, Idaho, a historic mining town with a population of (now) 961 people. It’s nestled in the Silver Valley between two ski resorts, Silver Mountain and Lookout Pass. The entire town could be a movie set. In fact, they filmed Dante’s Peak here.

I passed through Wallace a couple times on past trips, but something about the town kept drawing me in. It’s quiet. The air is fresh. I can leave my bike on the porch without a crackhead stealing it. Small town living is the life.

Airo Brands is the Buzz in Washington State

Years ago, maybe four or five, my friend Masha told me about a new vape company. She made a dirty joke about the pen vibrating, but in all reality it hit like a champ. That was my first introduction to Airo Brands and one I still remember to this day.

At the time, it felt like revolutionary vape technology. Magnetic cartridges paired with branded batteries in a convenient travel case we hadn’t seen before. Over the course of the next few years I often vaped these oils, whether by myself or with friends. So when Airo Brands reached out to partner for Washington State content, I couldn’t wait to buzz around South Lake Union in a hot tub boat.

Girls Day at Lake Ingalls with PLUGplay
October 14, 2021

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun with PLUGplay in Washington State

PLUGplay takes fun seriously. So when they reached out to parter on their Washington State launch I didn’t hesitate to go hiking. One of my favorite things to do is play in the mountains. The Pacific Northwest is packed with scenic smoke spots and cannabis keeps me plugged in on the trail.

I called up my friend Keti, a fellow wander babe, who suggested Lake Ingalls. Its vibrant fall colors pair well with pot, which amplifies the epic views. We filled our bags, loaded the car and definitely couldn’t forget the plugs for an unforgettable day with PLUGplay. As an added bonus, Sarah—a fellow cannabis creative—just moved from Michigan to Portland, so she met up with us too for her first Washington State hike.

Why Vaccine Mandates are Medical Segregation
September 28, 2021
vaccine mandates are medical segregation

It’s time to speak out against vaccine mandates and medical segregation

segregation — noun

  1. the act or process of segregating : the state of being segregated
  2. the separation or isolation of a race, class, or ethnic group by enforced or voluntary residence in a restricted area, by barriers to social intercourse, by separate educational facilities, or by other discriminatory means

It’s been 18 months since my first COVID-19 post. Over the last year-and-a-half, I’ve been mocked, doxxed and canceled for my views towards the pandemic. It’s almost surreal to look back and realize my worst fears have come to fruition. “Two weeks to flatten the curve” has morphed into “papers please” for basic freedoms.

It’s why all people, regardless of health status, need to speak out against vaccine mandates and medical segregation.

Royal Blunts

Smoke Like a Queen with Royal Blunts

There’s something about smoking a blunt that makes me feel like a boss. I’m not sure if it’s the cigar-like aspect, copious amounts of cannabis or memories of rolling up with friends in college. Either way, when Royal Blunts reached out to try their new palm leaf wraps I couldn’t wait to smoke like royalty in the vintage bathroom of my dreams.

I’ll be the first to admit. I am terrible and rolling blunts. Splitting the wrap, worrying if it’ll be too dry, slobbering all over a horribly wrapped tobacco leaf—it usually never smokes well. And don’t even get me started on the smell of musty tobacco in your house or apartment after. It’s why I couldn’t wait to try Royal Blunts’ new Palm Leaf wraps. They make the whole blunt rolling process so easy you could do it in your bathtub. So that’s just what we did.

Welcome Huxton to Washington State

Huxton Brings their Good-Time Providers to Washington State

Several years ago I discovered Huxton. This Arizona-based brand kicked off their entry into the cannabis space with stunning, chic accessories and to this day, I still use their backpack. As the brand evolved, they’ve since launched a line of pre-rolls and I couldn’t be more excited to see them in Washington State.

To celebrate, I coordinated a shoot in the loft of my dreams with talented photographer and friend Keti. We smoked joint after joint of these perfectly burning half-gram pre-rolls. Keep reading for more about Huxton’s Washington launch and why I love this brand even more.

Cannabis Essentials for a Pot Girl Summer

I recently teamed up with my friend and childhood neighbor Courtney Jette to collaborate on a summer photo shoot. Courtney is a talented photographer with a slew of vintage gems for her retro styling and set design The Red Clutch. So when titling this shoot, it only feels right to call it a pot girl summer.

I love all seasons but summer is by far my favorite. Hot weather, long days and swimwear as styling are just a few reasons it stands out. Throw in a poolside session and I’ll sit in the sun for hours. With so much time spent outside, it’s only natural to roundup a few of my favorite products for your summertime smoke out.

AVD Introduces The New Stem

Why wear my sophomore homecoming dress to hit a vape pen in nature? To highlight the importance of sustainable vape technology. It’s why I am so excited to share the new AVD Stem.

The Stem is a cartridge and rechargeable battery combo with one low, perfect temp. What I especially love is the biodegradable hemp-plastic casing. From an aesthetic perspective, the vortex mouthpiece looks fun, but it serves a purpose too — cool the smoke! So how does it hit?
