Almost every woman creator I’ve spoken to, whether it’s in the plant industry or not, has dealt with what I like to call bullsh*t on social media. Of course, being on social media increases our exposure, whether we like it or not. Unfortunately, it’s kind of part of the job (not that it should be). Cannabis is already such a stigmatized topic so I think it’s ever so important that we stick together and show respect for all plant community folks, regardless of what they look like. Even if we see stuff we don’t agree with, just ignore and swipe…
April 20th is right around the corner and I’m excited to officially share details of my first ever 420 event in Toronto 
Over the past few months, I’ve been working behind the scenes to put together an elevated, ultimate plant experience for my community. A night of exploring different formats of the plant from infused mocktails to massages, enjoying delicious munchies, seshing with me on our outdoor lounge and rooftop patio… and SO MUCH MORE. All the specific details of the event will be on the event page when it goes live at 4:20 PM EST today. Thank you…
If you’re friends with me or work with me, you’ll know I love to share my green goodies with everyone 
I always use my packrollsesh to transport my goodies if I’m going to be out and about, and keep my cannabis inside my ongrok_ltd 
No one can even tell my accessories are related to the green and that’s what I love about it! https://www.thecannabinista.com/links FIND ME ON: ► Website: https://www.thecannabinista.com ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cannabinista.co ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cannabinista ► Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/thecannabinista ► Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/thecannabinista/ FUN STUFF: → Shop my favourite stoner essentials: https://www.amazon.com/shop/thecannabinista → Codes: https://www.thecannabinista.com/links This post may contain…
This has seriously been a dream in the making. I’ve envisioned an April 20 event for a long long time and I’m so excited to be bringing it to life. I know I’ve just been teasing it but here are more details: 
April 20th @ 9 PM till late 
Chronic House in Toronto 
Plants, munchies, mocktails, massages… and so much more 
House party vibes but with an elevated touch The idea is that you’re coming to Cannabinista’s house to learn about the plant, vibe out, and enjoy a night of celebrating the plant and culture with other…
Last Friday I spoke at Radicle Femmes on a panel about cannabis brand building and marketing. An audience member asked me “how do you deal with hate on social media?” This was my answer. Well, part of it. The context is that I shared a few recent experiences where I received comments and direct messages hating on me for being Chinese. I also received messages with derogatory words like ch**k and c**t 
Being a creator, it is impossible to avoid the hate. But what’s important, is how you handle it and not let it impact you. I’d be lying…
Some people will experience a loss in appetite when they go on tolerance breaks. Makes sense because if you’re like me and like to consume before a meal, then this seems like a likely “withdrawal symptom”. However, I don’t want this to be a negative symptom or put the full blame on the plant. There are other potential factors that I believe are also impacting my appetite such as: • time zone change (I was in 3 different time zones just a few weeks ago) • stress and increase in workload (I’ve been B2b since I got back to Toronto…

Before I started my tolerance break, the one thing I was most worried about was not being able to fall asleep and having to deal with insomnia again. I’ve had insomnia on and off for decades (driven by stress, anxiety and trauma) and I found cannabis to be a helpful tool for helping me get sleepy and giving me the rest I need. To my surprise, 2 weeks into my tolerance break and everyday I’ve been able to fall asleep without cannabis! The only caveat is that I am sleeping 2-3 hours later in the night than I normally would…
Luckily my Focus V Carta 2 is super easy to use and has made my intro to vapes much simpler! I still have lots of learning and practicing to do, but simply just playing around with my device has helped me learn: different temperatures will offer different experiences and flavour how different types of vapes work and offer unique experiences the importance of keeping your vapes clean opting for cloud mist instead of combustion methods https://www.thecannabinista.com/links FIND ME ON: ► Website: https://www.thecannabinista.com ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cannabinista.co ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cannabinista ► Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/thecannabinista ► Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/thecannabinista/ FUN STUFF:…
One of the differences I’ve noticed on my tolerance break is that I’ve started to have dreams again! This is because cannabis compounds hinder our ability to enter the REM sleep cycle (although this doesn’t apply to everyone). I sometimes still have dreams even when I’m consuming, but they’re definitely more vivid and memorable when I’m on my break. My approach to my relationship with cannabis has always been to use it as an enhancement to my life, in a mindful manner. As long as cannabis is improving my life and not harming others, I will continue to use it.…
