76. How to Start Cannabis Microdosing: A High Guide for Women

Cannabis microdosing is having a moment—and for good reason. In this episode, April Pride explores how low doses of THC (often with CBD) can help women manage stress, pain, and mood—without getting high. Featuring real-life wisdom from former mayor and senior cannabis advocate Sherry Horn and cannabis entrepreneur Hope Wiseman, this episode offers a practical guide to understanding product labels, experimenting with ratios, and shopping smart. Plus, we break down psilocybin microdosing options and introduce a new 10-week microdose protocol launching in Seattle. Want to float through your day—not fly? This episode is for you.

🔵 Key Takeaways

-Cannabis microdosing means flying low—not high—while still getting therapeutic benefits.

-Start “low and slow,” especially with tinctures or gummies: 1 drop or 2 mg is a smart start.

-Understand ratios: 1:1 CBD:THC feels like champagne; 20:1 is like a light beer.

-Budtenders can’t offer medical advice—but they are label pros. Know what you want before you shop.

-Microdosing psilocybin (0.15g) can help with seasonal depression, migraines, and creativity.
