November 2020 Welcome

Remember, remember, the 3rd of November! It’s decision time, folks—and whether you’re aligning red or blue, this is going to be a hot one. For the undecideds out there, we get it. It’s tough to decide between a handsy, senile old man who mutters random nonsense and a (pause) handsy senile old man who mutters random nonsense. But that’s as far as we’ll go in addressing the choice, lest we stumble left or right of center and get torn to bits by partisan trolls. We’re just thankful that voting is still a thing we can do in this country and pray it remains as such in the future. 

 

Speaking of the future, have you signed up for the HQ Event and Trade Show yet?  If not, what are you waiting for? Having doubts? Just remember, it’s being put on by the amazing Smoke Shop Events and yours truly, the most trusted and longest-running publication in the space.  If you think we’d put our names on a dud, you need to get better at thinking. Anyway, happy November, happy Turkey day, and Happy Black Friday, fellow Heads on the Quest! We’ll see you in December.

For years, we’ve been told that this industry is the Wild West: a place where the only law amounts to whatever the guy with the gun says. But over the last 12 months, state governments have passed a spate of new regulations that promise to swap the relative lawlessness of poor enforcement of vague rules with real law and order.
With a last name like hers, it’s only fitting that Liz Grow ended up in the cannabis industry. Born and raised in Texas, Liz returned to her home state almost a decade ago to start Grow Haus Media with her husband, producer Patrick Pope. However, her personal journey with cannabis started back in 2011.
Kunda Wellness isn’t your average CBD brand. It was founded by two Doctors of Physical Therapy who have spent their careers treating pelvic floor dysfunction and helping people reconnect with a part of their body that’s often overlooked, dismissed, or wrapped in shame.

For years, Jennifer Mansour felt them coming. “You can’t stop one,” she said. “As soon as I’d notice that the lights felt a little too bright, I knew I was done for. I’d tell my boss, and then I’d get in the car and pop on my sunglasses because I could feel another one coming on, and I couldn’t do a thing to stop it.”
