Guest bio

Hey Y'all! My name is Kim; however, I'm known by many as the Hemp Housewife, and you might recognize me from my catchy tagline, 'Mamma Needs a Minute,' which has evolved into a cannabis brand tailored explicitly to uplift and empower women.

With a community of over 75,000 'Canna-besties' following my journey on social media, I aim to be more than just an influencer in the cannabis sphere. My features on Yahoo Finance in the past year for outstanding brand partnerships are testaments to that. 

My role, however, isn't limited to partnerships and collaborations. As a cannabis marketing expert, I've poured my heart into creating iconic content for top-tier cannabis brands and events. My driving force? Breaking down the barriers and negative perceptions that surround women who find solace and wellness in cannabis.
