Jenelle Evans flew to Las Vegas ready to start looking into creating her own marijuana business on Thursday's episode of Teen Mom: The Next Chapter on MTV.
'I'm really glad to be out of North Carolina right now,' Jenelle, 32, told her manager August Keen, who met her and already lived in Vegas.
'I bet,' August said.
'I've been dealing with a lot,' Jenelle said. 'There's the pending court cases right now, the no-contact order and then the one with David and Jace.'
Jenelle was fired from Teen Mom 2 after her estranged husband David Eason shot and killed their pet dog Nugget in April 2019. She revealed earlier this season that she was seeking a restraining order against David who was charged with child abuse for allegedly strangling her son Jace, 14.

August said he had this opportunity with an old business partner of his that was a grower in the cannabis space.
'I know you've always wanted your own cannabis line,' August said.
'I always wanted to come out with a marijuana brand because I've smoked since I've been younger,' Jenelle said. 'It helps me medically, mentally.'
Jenelle said she wanted to be hands-on and test out every product.
'I'm just happy I don't have the obstacle of David in the way,' Jenelle said.
'Because he's kept you from a lot of deals,' August said. 'You can get back to being a businesswoman.'
Jenelle said she got a call from the loan company regarding the dirt bike.
'I feel like I'm enabling him by paying for it but there is nothing I can do. My name is on the loan,' Jenelle said.
A flashback showed Jenelle in an epic fight with her mother Barbara Evans in which she told her mother that it was the time of the day that she liked to smoke weed

'That's not cool,' August said.
Jenelle said she needed a fresh start.
'I might not ever be able to cut ties with David because we have a child together but that's where you have to set boundaries,' Jenelle said in a confessional.
Adriana, director of operations for GreenMed Wellness, came over to meet them. She told them they were the only black-owned dispensaries and they also launched a brand for Whoopi Goldberg before asking Jenelle why she wanted to be a part of the cannabis community.
'A long time ago, when I was on 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom, it was me and my mom arguing and I was like, 'It's about this time of the day. I want to smoke' and that just resonated with everybody,' Jenelle said. 'That one scene, I thought to myself, ''I need to do something with this relating to weed'' and I thought the best thing would be to start a brand called This Time of the Day.'
'I feel this is a really great time to show who you are and who you want to be,' Adriana said.
'The future of this is going to be great,' said Jenelle, who also expressed a desire to remove the shame surrounding mothers who smoke marijuana.
Jenelle said she wanted to come out with a pre-rolled pack and then expand from there.
