How are cannabis and fine wine surprisingly alike? And how can a thoughtfully dosed THC gummy transform the busiest times of year—into a more joyful, stress-free experience? In this episode, of Just Say KNOW with Maria, we’re exploring the art of unwinding, the power of low-dose cannabis, and why owning your choices—cannabis-related or otherwise—is the ultimate gift of self-care.
Joining Maria is Liz Rodrigo, founder of CaliLily, a luxury low-dose THC gummy brand designed to elevate life’s moments with confidence and sophistication. As one of the few women leading the charge in the cannabis industry, Liz is redefining indulgence while breaking barriers in a space where women-led companies make up only 20% of funded ventures. Maria and Liz unpack the magic of low-dose THC gummies and their ability to create calm and joy in life’s most stressful moments and they explore:
✔️ The intersection of cannabis and fine wine culture
✔️ Why low-dose THC can be a game-changer for relaxation and connection
✔️ How cannabis can help make parenting during the holidays (or any hectic season) more manageable
✔️ The importance of being unapologetic in your choices—especially as a woman in cannabis
✔️ Liz Rodrigo’s inspiring journey as a female founder in the cannabis industry.
Whether you're a canna-curious consumer, a mom seeking balance, or an aspiring female founder, this episode is for you.
👉 Tune in and discover how luxury cannabis can be the key to a more intentional, stress-free, and beautifully elevated life.
