WeedBudz host, Ry, sits down with networking genius, Chelsey Moter to discuss how networking has changed during lockdown and the solutions to those changes. During lockdown all in person networking events were either postponed or cancelled. As a result it became much more difficult for individuals to network and connect with others in their industry. Understanding that people were missing and needing that face-to-face interaction, without the small talk, Chelsey and her team created a virtual speed networking event, Lit & Loaded. Geared towards professionals in the Cannabis industry, it is a 3-minute introduction and that is it! If you and the other professional both hit the connect button at the bottom of the screen, you will be sent each other’s contact info and it will move on to the next person. If you are looking to expand your network, generate leads, and close more deals than this is the event for you! Click the hyperlink below to register!

Ry sits down with Tino, Brand Ambassador for Design Kush, to discuss the new, upcoming apps, such as Clubhouse. For those that do not know, this is an app that not only lets you take part in conversations, but listen to leaders of the industry. Tino also takes time to discuss his personal journey that led him to the cannabis community, along with some important projects Design Kush has done, such as the awareness video they created for The Last Prisoners Project, specifically, Michael Thompson. The powerful video, “Let’s Win Together”, was created in hopes of bringing awareness to the still lingering issue of incarcerations for cannabis related crimes. Join us!
Grab your budz and join Ry as he sits down with Lauren Mundell, the founder ofHi-Curious. As much as we do knot like to admit it, there is still a stigma regarding marijuana use. During the magical time of 420, we go through the journey that started with Lauren coming all the way from New York, or as she calls it, “the corporate world”, to creating a social platform where users in the cannabis industry can openly discuss questions about marijuana use, and network openly without the fear of judgement from others that are not in the cannabis space. Thanks to Lauren and Hi-Curious we are one step closer to normalizing cannabis. Join us and don’t forget to download the Hi-Curious app!
Ry introduces us to Melissa of MJ Hybrid Solutions, Melissa has been working with cannabis for about six years and during that time she realized one glaring problem within the marijuana retail industry, lack of education. Budtenders do not always receive the training they need, especially when the community starts to evolve and create new strains as well as new products. In a world where consumers, especially new ones, need to feel safe, Melissa provides training for wellness, as well as product knowledge for dispensaries so that they may advise their customers accordingly. Let’s find out what goes into to knowing your smoke. Join us!
First meeting on Clubhouse, Ry speaks to Scott, a community builder, networker, and Founder of Bloom Mary Jane.

This along with creating luxury CBD bath bombs, makes this site worth the visit. Join us!
Ry and Ishqa first met when he appeared on the CannaBoss Babes Podcast. Last year these folks happened to release over 420 episodes, which is amazing considering some news anchors refuse to record that many!
