This episode you’ll be hearing from sister duo Zia and Tamu Stolbie, who perfectly encapsulate the ‘hustle’ mentality we all hear about in the cannabis space.

The Stolbie sisters, as their known in the local industry, have several businesses in operation,  all centred around the cannabis plant, which in their words ‘was the missing link’ in their professional careers until now. They have a thriving creative agency, GG Media Lab, which works with cannabis LP’s, brands and influencers. Their apparel line, Stolbie Brand, has a focus on sustainability planting one tree for every item sold, and their event company, High End Dinner, catering to the ever growing demand of infused cannabis experiences, with Red Seal chef Adam Barski, better known as the Budder Chef.

At the very core of all their pursuits is collaboration, partnering with creatives and industry professionals from all disciplines to create robust and diverse services as part of their business offerings.

Diversity is of course at the crux of this conversation, Tamu and Zia being two WOC working in what we know to be an industry in need of creating and maintaining a space where people from all walks of life have equal opportunity.

They discuss their aspirations for themselves and this industry as a whole, having come from tech and film, and also their journey working together as sisters, which for anyone but these two would be challenging to say the least.

Tune in, to learn more about one of the oldest and simplest cannabis extraction methods around!

Kirk travels back to familiar territory. The master of the cold-call finds opportunity to bring listeners a couple Cannabis stories while visiting his Alberta family. Canadian listeners will remember how the hamlet of Lac La Biche helped the citizens of Fort McMurry after the great fire of May 2016. During his visit to this beautiful lake side community, Kirk spoke with the owner of Equilibrium, Lac La Biche’s first independent retail cannabis store. He then happened upon the grand opening of Spiritleaf, where he spoke with the happy owners of this franchise store. In this episode we learn from these front-line retailers about the Alberta market place and how a small town Alberta is not going without. Alberta is kicking butt and taking names when it comes to legal Cannabis Retail. Hey Ontario and BC, maybe you need a lesson from Wild Rose Country?
