Stephanie Smith is a wife, mother of five children and a real estate developer from California who has a passion for the environment and human rights. Via her real estate firm, Stephanie manages acquisitions, operations, and finances. She prioritizes projects that focus on “green building” practices and the use of solar and water reclamation systems. Stephanie is an advocate for Cannabis law-reform and regulation, and also the use of Psilocybin for personal, medical, therapeutic, spiritual, and religious use. She has worked tirelessly to make her firm one of the largest Cannabis landlords in California. She openly describes herself as a Cannabis activist who is politicly active in challenging government legislation and protecting civil rights at the highest level. Despite, advocating for a variety of social justice issues, some mainstream media outlets have described her as a Cannabis “Queen Pin” a title she feels is better used to describe her ability to run a successful business, raise a family of five children and her ability to organize epic children’s birthday parties…not necessarily Cannabis retail outlet zoning laws.
In this week's episode, Stephanie is with me to share her journey, her experiences, challenges, and hopes for the future.
