Why I Started a Premium CBD Brand

I'll admit, I've smoked my share of week back in the day, and I mean way back when it mainly looked like a bag of dried herbs from my mom's spice cabinet and was about two fingers "worth" in a baggie :-)! You know what I'm talking about.


I don't know why I smoked it, I think it's because my friends did and sometimes it made us laugh like crazy! It mostly made me anxious and way, overly paranoid. I haven't smoked since 1993 after a rather intense panic attack I contributed to bad weed.


Fast forward to today, between raising teenagers, working a high pressure job for a Fortune 150 company, trying my hand at dating, raising 3 large shelter dogs, and trying to maintain some sort of work / life balance, it all became too much.


I had an anxiety attack on the way to the airport (headed out for another business trip) and got lost finding my terminal, which I had flawlessly found hundreds of times before. I call this the "airport incident". As soon as I landed back home after a rough trip, still not able to understand what had happened to me, I visited my doctor. He put me on Zoloft, to ease my mind and calm my stress. I don't know if it was pyschologoical or what but it seemed to work immediately.


When I went to refill my script for the third month, the pharmacy explained it wouldn't be covered because of my prescription drug plan. I had to make some calls, fill out some form and receive it via mail-order. Well, I barely have time to swing into the pharmacy much less figure out all the "paperwork" required to keep taking the magic pills. I gave up and weaned myself off taking 1/2 a dose until the ones I had were gone. I didn't love the idea of taking something long term anyway.


I heard someone talking about CBD a year or so ago and really thought it was a fancy "legal" way to sell weed. Around the same time I started to feel the same life induced anxious feelings I had before the "airport incident", and thought I would swing into a local CBD store. I chatted with the somewhat knowledgeable clerk and walked out with an expensive bag of Full Spectrum CBD products. What they failed to tell me was Full Spectrum contains some limited level of THC, not enough to make you high but certainly enough to fail a drug test... I felt misinformed and was not happy! Not to mention the products tasted terrible!!


The products did work, they took the anxiousness away but I didn't feel good about what was going in my body because I didn't feel informed. There wasn't much information on the label that made any sense and when visiting the website listed I was more confused.


That's what kickstarted my endeavour. I spent months and months and thousands of my personal savings dollars learning, testing, tasting, reading, talking, visiting, rubbing, dropping and tincturing me and everyone who crossed my path, you get the picture... I did all of this because I seek to provide 1) real information about what you're taking and 2) provide the best premium CBD products you can find anywhere on the market.


I hope you find what you're looking for, I plan to continue to add products over time but will only do so once everything I add is thoroughly sampled, tested, validated, tasted, and personally used to my satisfaction.


ENJOY and LUCKY YOU!!
