For good reason I have been quiet during June . After 15 years of marriage, 4 kids, and 8 years into an entrepreneurial journey within the cannabis industry I took a break. I booked a trip a year ago for two weeks in Spain with just my wife Jennifer and actually did it. 2 weeks with an uninterrupted train of thought and the constant adrenal firing of daily life. Was it worth it? Absolutely. I have always felt a sense of shame for taking time off especially as a service provider that needs to be there but I am sharing this because it was worth it! For perspective, prioritization, but more importantly to recharge the banks to be a better leader, mentor, visionary, partner, and most importantly father. Excited to feel the momentum building in the cannabis industry and to take on the 2nd half of 2024. Thanks to the FlowerHire team for giving me the confidence to shut it off for a couple weeks. Lets go!
