For over four decades Richard Rose has been a leading innovator in the national and international natural food industry with products such as TofuRella, Cottage Tofu Salad and LeTofu. In 1994, Richard pivoted from soybean to hempseed, an older and far more nutritious protein source. He was the first food professional in hemp foods in North America, and he paved the way for those he inspired.

By 2002 when the U.S. market for hempseed collapsed for years due to an ill-advised suit by a fiber group against the DEA for legalizing 98% of all hemp products, Richard retired to Amsterdam for a spell and returned to Colorado where he currently resides. Richard's story is unique and will cause you to think past the surface.

During the pandemic, and during her own journey with psilocybin Tracey began to feel called to support moms in a deeper and more meaningful way. In 2022 she launched an online community and digital micro-dosing courses created exclusively for moms calledM.O.M. which stands for “Moms On Mushrooms.”

Tracey’s goal is to bring moms together through the sacred use of plant medicine for a shared journey ofpersonal growth and healing.

Her unique journey of reproductive health issues, infertility, a hysterectomy, and early menopause provides a unique and very deep level of compassion for mothers. This compassion and understanding coupled with a lifetime of learning about women’s health and wellness allows her to hold space for moms with health, birth and womb trauma while also offering practical tips for overwhelmed and busy moms to simply feel better in their bodies and embrace a more sustainable and natural approach to physical and spiritual healing.

Since it’s launch in March 2022 M.O.M. has been featured on NPR (twice) Good Morning America, Today Show, Piers Morgan, Rolling Stone Magazine, Fox News, CBS Saturday Morning, NBC News, Romper Magazine, Café Mom, London Times and The Guardian.
