Event planning is a beast. There are so many moving parts to consider, but they are wonderful for bringing people together, especially in the cannabis industry. You just have to be prepared, be knowledgeable, and most of all, be flexible. 

In this episode, I do a live coaching call with my friend, Raeven Duckett, a cannabis equity activist and co-founder of Community Gardens in Oakland, California. I answer her questions about the logistics of planning a cannabis event and share my advice from past event experiences. We chat about promoters, vendors, security, sponsorships, and most importantly, event budgets.
