We’ve all heard heartfelt stories about family coalescing and diving head first into a new business venture. Southside Santa Fe dispensary Endo has an origin story that checks many of the standard boxes and then some. Staff writer and Leaf Brief Podcast host Andy Lyman takes us to Endo for Episode 2 and hears from father and son Ian and Stephan Aarons about the genesis of their nearly year-old company. Ian talks about how a tragedy in his personal life finally spun him away from the path of becoming a lawyer like his dad, who is a criminal defense attorney, and spurred him to follow his dreams of growing and selling cannabis.
