When Congress Declared Pizza A Vegetable, Kate Became A Nun

“Make Commerce” is Sister Kate’s motto and you might not expect that because she is a self-proclaimed feminist revolutionary in a nun’s habit. Her idea that activism helps commerce is not traditionally advocated by your typical nun, but Sister Kate is anything but typical. Her journey from New York City financial analyst to Cannabis evangelist was circuitous, and on today’s show she shares the details with us. Sister Kate found her true calling when she learned to organize her life to be in tune with the moon, and she works every day with her community at the Sisters of the Valley in California where they put their beliefs into practice of putting Mother Earth first and second and serving the cannabis plant and producing some wonderful products for our health and wellness. We are so happy to begin 2021 on The Canna Mom Show with Sister Kate.Topics Discussed(2:10) Goodbye To All This podcast(3:00) Sean Morgan of Casa Canna Boston (4:20) Sister Kate Intro and Story(11:11) Great Parenting Advice(12:55) Pivoting Into Cannabis(13:52) Occupy Movement(14:47) When Congress Declared Pizza A Vegetable(16:00) 8 Core Beliefs(17:30) The Moon Cycles(18:41) Creating A Global Business(20:50) Tinctures and Oils(21:40) Salves(22:42) Vaginas and Cannabis Criminalization(25:00) Moon Cycles(26:25) Sisters of Valley Tea(27:10) Sisters of the Valley and Covid(28:58) Patent Process(31:18) SPONSORSHIP(32:30) The Technicolor Cannabis Quilt(35:45) 2021 and Mushrooms(38:50) Connect With The Sisters of the ValleySupport the Sister of Valley PatreonThe Canna Mom Show wants to thank:Josh Lamkin and Bella Jaffe for writing and performing TCMS theme music Amie Searles for believing Kelly Dolan of Retail Results Inc Lori Lennon of Thinkubator Media Kim Kramer of McLane Middleton Cannabis Creative GroupPod617, The Boston Podcast Network

Science Cannabis Trail Blazer Renee Engle-Goodner

Renee Engle-Goodner speaks with Joyce from her home in California and shares her story of transitioning into the cannabis industry from wine and academia. Her expertise in both chemistry and biology make her a unicorn in the post-harvest technology sector, but when she was first encouraged to use her unique skill set in the cannabis industry she was hesitant. Although the plant had never been part of her personal life, her native American heritage and her own father had always treated it as a medicine. Renee shares her story of why following the odd advise of the two women who were guiding her academic life allowed her to transition from academic research to industry research, and how she found her place in the regulated market in California. On today’s podcast she shares her canna story on why she is on a mission to use the lessons of the past to create the industry of the future without reinventing the wheel, and why she is encouraging her local community college to engage young people in the cannabis industry.Topics Discussed(1:21) Repurposing Political Signs(2:20) Half Baked Housewives co-host Dori Wile(4:00) Guest Introduction Renee Engle-Goodner(5:25) Smoke and Impact On Cannabis(6:30) Renee’s Academic Story(7:35) California Community College(8:09) Post Harvest Agriculture Chemistry and Biology(10:12) Post Harvest Defined(12:12) Winery Work(13:55) Standardization Important for Lab Assurance(17:00) Legacy Labs, New Labs and Federal Regulations(22:15) Gas and Cannabis(25:25) Cannabis and Covid Testing(26:35) Bug Bombs!(29:19) Scientists Wanting To Do Best Thing(30:05) Author and Textbook(31:51) Northern California Cannabis Community College Certificate(33:15) Community Colleges(34:14) The Wine and Weed Show(35:32) Sponsor The Canna Mom Show!(38:42) Electric Grinder(39:00) Hemp and Testing(42:15) Delta 8(46:15) Personal Cannabis Story with Dad and His Shed(50:21) Connect with Renee at Reg Science or on Linked-InThe Canna Mom Show wants to thank:Josh Lamkin and Bella Jaffe for writing and performing TCMS theme music Amie Searles for believing Kelly Dolan of Retail Results Inc Lori Lennon of Thinkubator Media Kim Kramer of McLane Middleton Cannabis Creative GroupPod617, The Boston Podcast Network

Goodness and Beauty with Diana Chung and Arica Hirsch

Diana Chung and Arica Hirsch are radiation oncologist who worked as partners on a mission to help patients use CBD to heal skin damaged by the medical procedures, specifically breast cancer patients. The two doctors spent long nights reformulating CBD oil in over 800 recipes in Diana’s kitchen after a full day treating patients. Their persistence paid off and their beauty business, Sunmi Beauty, was launched in 2018. Sunmi products are high quality because they were created by these two visionary physicians with ingredients that were intentionally and carefully selected. In addition, the serum and salve are manufactured in FDA approved labs to ensure quality. Now available on their website, Neiman Marcus, MyJane and other quality CBD retailers. The ladies talk about developing a beauty product, their personal journeys, and how the medical community is evolving around cannabis.Topics Discussed(1:18) Food Insecurity and Unhousing: Food for Free(2:00) Thanksgiving Decarboxylation with Ardent Cannabis(3:12) Guest Introduction(4:00) Purchase Sunmi(4:20) Diana Chung Introduction(5:25) Integrative Medicine(6:06) University of Arizona Certificate of Integrative Medicine(6:44) Sunmi Origin Story(8:36) Learning to Use CBD(11:15) Caring for Radiation Burns(13:30) Shifting Into Beauty Business(18:50) MyJane Purchase Here(19:28) Products Serum and Salve(22:20) Coming Back to Internal Beauty(23:00) The Importance of Momentary Feelings of Calm, Pleasure and Peace(24:15) Jill Gordon and Isagenix(25:50) CCC News and Social Equity Delivery Licenses(29:10) Medical Establishment and Cannabis(30:40) Medical Cannabis in Illinois(34:05) Hopes For 2021(35:40) Connect with Sunmi on InstagramThe Canna Mom Show wants to thank:Josh Lamkin and Bella Jaffe for writing and performing TCMS theme music Amie Searles for believingKelly Dolan of Retail Results Inc Lori Lennon of Thinkubator Media Kim Kramer of McLane Middleton Cannabis Creative GroupPod617, The Boston Podcast Network
