Five Years Running a Cannabis Instagram

What I’ve Learned After Five Years of a Cannabis Instagram

“Do people call you Cannabess?”

“No, but they’re about to.”

It is this very conversation which sparked the idea of a cannabis Instagram and absolutely transformed my career. Five years ago I kicked off @imcannabess, completely unaware what lie ahead.

Since then I have connected with countless producers, processors, retailers, ancillary brands and cannabis creatives all looking to make a difference in this space. I feel so blessed for the opportunities over the years but more important, the lessons learned. So today I want to share what I’ve discovered after five years running a cannabis Instagram.

Sip CBD Cocktails and Soak up the Sunset at Amara Resort

To celebrate my dad’s 71st birthday we spent a week in Sedona. We made sure to soak up the sun, see the sights and sip CBD cocktails at Amara Resort and Spa. The resort’s SaltRock Southwest Kitchen is a must-try for breakfast, lunch or dinner, but definitely drinks.

Since entering the cannabis industry, I’ve found my alcohol consumption on the decline. So I couldn’t wait to try these boozy CBD cocktails. SaltRock’s master mixologist Danny made us three infused concoctions, each unique in its own regard and absolutely delicious.

Add Cannabis to Your Cabin Trip Getaway

One thing I love most about living in Washington State is how it feels like a permanent vacation. From endless mountain hikes and epic snowboarding, to no shortage of lakes or rivers, there is always something to do. That being said, sometimes you need to decompress and get off the grid.

I recently wrapped a Granite Falls staycation with my friend Lizzy. We smoked endless joints, took frigid polar plunges and dabbed until we couldn’t dab anymore. We made time to create for fun, without client requirements, and packed a few of our favorite brands. So I’ve put together a recap of Washington’s best cannabis products for a cabin trip.

Keep Your New Years Resolutions with Collective Arts Brewing

Most people make New Years resolutions to get healthy or cut alcohol. However, as weeks creep by and ski season kicks in, it can be hard to keep your goals. It’s why I am so excited to parter with Collective Arts Brewing for a CBD-alternative both on and off the slopes.

Their new Collective Project merges mixologist-driven, CBD-infused beverages with the global arts community. These sparkling CBD juices and teas contain 20mg of hemp each and zero alcohol. With flavors like Mango, Pineapple & Coconut, it’s easy to crack open an après ski CBD.

Stoned As Folk With Sugarhigh Lovestoned

It feels like the world is burning, both figuratively and literally. Politics have us more divided than ever. Protests take place weekly, sometimes more. What the society really needs more of is love, sweet Sugarhigh Lovestoned.

I recently got stoned as folk in their groovy romper. I’ve followed this female-owned apparel company for years and love their collection of cannabis-oriented clothing. When I saw this green piece with my favorite plant (and mom’s) name on the front, I couldn’t pass it up.

Your New Daytime Smoke — TenneCBD’s White Grapefruit CBG

I love citrus strains, but sometimes THC is too much for my daytime smoke. It’s why I’ve turned to TenneCBD’s White Grapefruit CBG. This rare hemp strain has flavors of tart citrus, lemongrass and evergreen, but it’s the effects I notice most — mellow, calming and comparable to a warm cup of chamomile tea.

I know what you’re thinking. Hemp!? TenneCBD is indoor grown, hand trimmed and pesticide free. Best of all, it’s legal in all 50 states since these products fall below the .3% THC limit.

Suspend Taxes During the Pandemic

Suspend Taxes and All Other Non-Voluntary Payments During the Pandemic

Today is Tax Day, and while the deadline is extended, I don’t feel that’s enough. During this pandemic, I believe government should suspend taxes — the only non-voluntary payment currently required.

I see people call for a suspension of rent, mortgages or student loans. I believe those are voluntary contractual agreements which you should resolve with your lender, not the government. If home owners or landlords don’t pay property taxes, the State seizes their land.

It’s My Quarantine Birthday and I’ll Cry if I Need To

Yesterday I celebrated my quarantine birthday. However, I found it hard to be happy. No, not because our Palm Springs trip got cancelled.

Initially I planned to wrap my workday at noon. As a business owner, I work around the clock, so couldn’t wait to clock-off early to lounge around and FaceTime friends. Instead, I worked until almost 6PM.

Golden Hour and Ganja at the Walt Disney Concert Hall

One of the many locations on my content list includes the Walt Disney Concert Hall. For years I’ve seen shots of the famous Frank Gehry architecture and admired the building’s curves. When I coordinated my recent Los Angeles shoot with Chern, we put this spot on our must-see for golden hour.

The walls work like a giant photo reflector, which is why this place is perfect for a golden hour sesh. Walkways, stairs and solid walls bounce light into the smallest shadows. At one point I felt lucky to be wearing sunglasses as I would literally be blinded by the light.
