⚠️ Consider Yourself Warned

Apparently, if you’re going to be my friend, there are a few things you should know:

I have dangerously high curiosity and absolutely no internal “that’s enough research for today” switch.

If I say “I’ve been thinking…” — cancel your afternoon. 😂

I will connect five seemingly unrelated things and confidently ask, “Wait… what if these are actually connected?”

I have approximately 47 ideas at any given moment. Some become businesses. Some become workshops. Some become research projects. Some should probably just stay in my Notes app. 🤣

I will question the system, ask for the evidence, and then become extremely difficult to move if the evidence supports me.

I’m equal parts analytical, intuitive, entrepreneurial, service-oriented, sarcastic, and “hear me out…”

And apparently my brain has a direct pipeline from random conversation → scientific rabbit hole → community project → business idea.

Most importantly, though:

I care. A lot.

So if something matters to me, I’m probably going to try to make it better.

Oh—and if you mention something remotely interesting, there is a non-zero chance we’re about to spend the next two hours discussing it.

You've been warned. 😉

The surf is soothing. 🐠
And the salty sea air refreshes my soul.🐚
It inspires me. 🤩

"H**p isn't a different plant from cannabis. 🌿

This is probably one of the most common misconceptions I hear.

Here's the confusing part:
👉 Cannabis is a scientific term.
👉 H**p is a legal definition based primarily on THC concentration.

That means h**p can come from any cannabis variety, provided it meets the legal THC limit.

In the U.S., h**p is defined as cannabis containing 0.3% Δ9-THC or less by dry weight.

In many parts of Europe, that limit is 0.2%.

Industrial h**p isn't a different species either—it has the same cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and other plant compounds. It's simply been selectively bred for different purposes like fiber, seed, grain, and oil.

Understanding the terminology helps cut through a lot of the confusion surrounding cannabis science.
