A cannabis consultation is 15, 30, or 45 minutes chat with a cannabis expert who will educate you about how to work with cannabis safely, effectively, and affordably. Each consultation is tailored towards your particular needs, whether that's health or recreation. You'll quickly understand which products to try, how to use them best, and why they may be helpful. Learn how to manage pain, anxiety, sleep disorders, and other health challenges for which cannabis has been shown to be useful. ____________________________________

Absolutely not. If you have interest in being heard, respected, and educated by a cannabis expert, we are happy to help. We are passionate about teaching others to use cannabis safely and effectively. Who will benefit? Anyone who legally buys dispensary products or CBD products and likes saving money. When you understand which products best serve your needs and why, you don't waste money on trial and error approaches that simply aren't as effective. You won't be strung along by brands that promise they are the only one you can trust, just so you'll need to pay a premium for their products. Many people save hundreds or thousands of dollars a year after one or two short helpful chats. You don't need insomnia to appreciate knowing how to get a better nights sleep with cannabis. You don't need to be sick to care about the safety of the products you are purchasing. You don't need to have crippling anxiety to understand a natural anti-anxiety tool at your disposal. Athletes, Musicians, Artists, and ordinary people from all walks of life find ways to positively integrate cannabis into their lives. Why not you? ____________________________________

I'm glad you asked. I'm Dan. I'm a writer, educator, cannabis coach, and business consultant. I've spent the last 14 years fascinated with cannabis, ever since my earliest experiences. Those experiences were very positive; fun, joyous, they opened me up to an appreciation of art, music, and nature I had never known. These early experiences increased the depth of my personal relationships and enhanced my love of good food. Since then I spent 14 years learning everything I could about this plant that helped me, so that I could continue to help myself and others. After college, I moved to California in 2011 and worked just about every role of the cannabis industry from grower to trimmer to delivery service owner. I read the medical research I can find online, talk to cannabis doctors, speak with product manufacturers about production techniques, and talk to elders who have been healing others with cannabis in California since 1996 Whether when working as a retail consultant at the largest dispensary in the country, or when advising people about products by phone while working for a small delivery service in Santa Cruz, I've always enjoyed educating others and guiding people to their best options. I've done this for several years and offered well over ten thousand consultations. Currently, I'm finishing a book Cannabis Roadmap to more widely share this helpful yet under-utilized knowledge. I also work privately as an educational consultant for cannabis businesses around the U.S. I don't know everything! But I know a lot more than nothing, and I'm well qualified to help you understand more too. ____________________________________

The short answer is YES. Properly utilized Cannabis products tend to work very well for dogs and cats, particularly in regards to pain and anxiety issues. I've heard many many people report very positive results. Especially given how widespread the prescription of opioids is for older animals in pain, I'm shocked more people don't utilize these approaches. Since all mammals have endocannabinoid systems capable of efficiently processing the phytocannabinoids found in cannabis, its very possible that other types of pets will benefit as well. Beyond pain and anxiety relief, clinical animal research suggests that it may offer significant benefit for many types of Cancer as well. From Cancer.org, the American Cancer Society website: "More recently, scientists reported that THC and other cannabinoids such as CBD slow growth and/or cause death in certain types of cancer cells growing in lab dishes. Some animal studies also suggest certain cannabinoids may slow growth and reduce spread of some forms of cancer." If you'd like to know more about what works best for what and why, a brief consultation should do it. Or you can read my book ____________________________________

Yes. There is really no debate whatsoever, cannabis is very helpful for treating the negative symptoms that tend to accompany chemotherapy: combating nausea, gaining back appetite, and generally soothing the system. I am happy to explain how you can get the most from your treatment. ____________________________________

It depends. How often would you like to be listened to, respected, and educated about cannabis? For some people this will be one time. Just enough information to resolve one issue or get their bearings before they head into a dispensary ready to spend some money. For others this could be a weekly check in as they try to slowly get off of opioids and other pharmaceuticals with safer cannabis alternatives. Most issues will be resolved within one to two sessions. By "resolved" I mean that the client will understand their options for addressing the specific issue with cannabis and will know how to safely proceed exploring those options and understanding the results. While cannabis works great for many things, it doesn't work wonders for everyone in every situation. "Resolved" could also mean you understand, and have tried your best currently available options with cannabis and are aware that it isn't the best tool for your situation. ____________________________________
