Today we discuss the other side of wellness that is usually not highlighted - how cannabis has a place in a healthy lifestyle. We also discuss making the choice not to drink and how so much of our perception around weed is still based in stereotypes and racism.
In this episode of the Live Your Personal Best podcast, I speak with Cameron Rogers, the voice behind @freckeledfoodie, a content creator, and host of Freckled Foodie & Friends. She creates a space where content is approachable and authentic, and she is the truest version of herself.
