    BBM Ep. 202: So, what is the cleanest & safest way to ingest weed? (Featuring Dr. Miyabe Shields, Ph.D.)

    Dr. Miyabe Shields, Ph.D., who prefers they/them pronouns, joins this episode of the Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast to get into the science behind our favorite plant: cannabis! Miyabe is a pharmaceutical scientist who specializes in the molecules in cannabis and the system in the brain and body that are activated by them.  Some questions Miyabe answers (because the more we know!) in their conversation Shonitria: Why is it that some people don't get high after ingesting edibles? Does smoking weed harm our brains and "fry" our brain cells? In what ways can cannabis help neurodivergent people? What does science say about using cannabis as a mom? And what's the cleanest way to ingest cannabis... edibles, tinctures, dry herb vaping, dabbing, joints, etc? It's always wonderful to chat about cannabis with a scientist who studies the plant to help us understand the plant even more. Grab your weed, boo, spark up and enjoy this enlightening chat with Dr. Miyabe!  Follow Miyabe on Instagram: @miyabephd Follow Blunt Blowin' Mama on Instagram: @bluntblowinmama Research cited in this episode: The Effect of SSRI Exposure in Pregnancy on Early Respiratory and Metabolic Adaptation in Infants Born Preterm: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10046952/ Network of Applied Pharmacology (NAP): Accelerating research and public education for cannabis, psychedelics, and other natural medicines by prioritizing lived experience and community engagement. https://www.appliedpharmacognosy.org/

    BBM Ep. 199: Arana is the cannamom & boss behind NYC’s Travel Agency dispensary (420 Edition)

    This 420 episode of the Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast is sponsored by The Travel Agency -- Shonitria's fave legal NYC dispensary. Arana joins this episode to chat about what it's like being a cannamom working in the legal weed industry.  Drop by The Travel Agency's newest location in Downtown Brooklyn and let 'em know Blunt Blowin' Mama sent you: https://www.thetravelagency.co/ Follow The Travel Agency on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/thetravelagency.co Arana says she never felt the stigma on weed until she started working in the industry. She's the president and co-founder of The Travel Agency, a BIPOC-founded company that believes legal cannabis has the power to repair the damage caused by the war on drugs. The Travel Agency is a purpose-driven business, with the brand new Downtown Brooklyn store owned by those who have experienced cannabis-related injustices and their Union Square dispensary directing over half of the profits to The Doe Fund. The Manhattan mama says it took a while for her to figure out how to talk to the parents at her kids' school about what she does for a living. But she says she realized she should have no shame or feel a need to qualify her cannabis profession because weed has never harmed or killed anyone, unlike alcohol. Arana also shares how cannabis has been a useful tool in her marriage and a way she even bonds with her mom! Plus, Arana teaches us how to know if the weed you're buying in the newly legal state of New York is counterfeit or not -- she also details the dangers of vaping and what to look out for when buying vape carts. This is such a good episode -- happy 420, y'all!

  4. BBM Ep. 197: How to deal with judgment & shaming as a cannamom

    BBM Ep. 197: How to deal with judgment & shaming as a cannamom

    Being a mom who smokes weed is honestly something I am very proud of because I know I am a great mom and it's mostly because cannabis is part of my self-care routine. However, cannabis is still federally illegal and very misunderstood due to the lack of education on the plant. Most people still consider weed a drug and those who partake in it drug addicts. So imagine what these naysayers call moms who smoke weed? It's hardly kind.

I often get asked: How do I deal with haters and those who want to label me a bad mom for smoking weed? On this episode, I lay out exactly how to handle someone who wants to judge, shame and bad mouth moms who smoke weed and what to do if someone tries to come for you because you're a cannamom. Normalization of weed will soon come but in the meantime, here's how to navigate people in your life who just don't understand how weed is plant medicine that does way more good than harm.  Follow Blunt Blowin' Mama on Instagram: @bluntblowinmama Join me on TikTok: @bluntblowinmama Subscribe on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@bluntblowinmama?
