Your Highness Podcast

This is the season 4 premiere episode, and we're starting things off differently. That's because this season will be a more honest representation of the original concept of the show. What that means is that each episode will have a different guest co-host, and guest interviews are gone.

Johann Balbuena, a US Navy Veteran, cannabis activist, and founder of Balbuena Consulting, is the guest co-host, and the conversation is focused on some of the ways that accessibility issues in cannabis affect veterans.

ln this season finale, listeners get a preview of how season 4 will be. Diana is joined by Ayanna Lawson, founder of Front Row Travels, as a guest co-host. Many important topics surrounding cannabis travel, the current climate, and stimulating local economy are being discussed in this episode, so listen in for an informative and entertaining ride.
