Episode 13: April Pride |
An entrepreneur and a visionary as well as an advocate for women who make unorthodox choices, April Pride is making her mark for good in the cannabis world. Her first cannabis brand, Van der Pop, published 2017’s Women & Weed survey — the industry’s first comprehensive report on the thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors of 1,500 North American women. The success of Van der Pop led to the company being acquired by Canopy Growth (NYSE: CGC) in 2018.
Upon her exit from Canopy in 2019, she created, co-founded, and served as the inaugural host of How to Do the Pot podcast. Today, April is the creator & host of The High Guide, a podcast about women changing their lives thanks to altered states. Concurrent with her work at The High Guide, she is the CEO/Founder at Of Like Minds, a portfolio of women-founded companies in which she’s invested and advises. April is also included on the High Times Female 50 inaugural list. Before her formal pursuits in the cannabis world, April had a career as an interior and product designer.
On this episode of Mindful Consuming, April talks to us about her journey, breaks down the power of effectively using THC and CBD together, and discusses the continually growing potential for psychedelics to positively impact our lives. Her overall approach to openness is inspiring, encouraging us all to broaden our approach to healing and leisure.
