    Send us Fan Mail Nothing kills the vibe at a cannabis friendly event quite like a SWAT team showing up. And yes, that actually happened to today’s guest.

    Your Million Dollar High Idea Is Dying in Your Notes App

    Send us Fan Mail YOUR MILLION DOLLAR HIGH IDEA IS DYING IN YOUR NOTES APP How many million dollar high ideas do you have sitting in the Notes app on your phone right now? I’m turning 40 this month and it has made me ask myself some really uncomfortable questions about my ideas, my business, what I’m building next, and why the f**k I still get stuck when I already know what to do. The truth is, I don’t have an idea problem. I don’t have an information problem. I don’t even have a strategy problem. I have an execution problem. In this solo episode, we’re gardening and talking about how many potentially life changing ideas never actually fail because we never give them the opportunity to f*****g work. The Garden Tok started as one of those freshly gardened ideas. It has now grown into this podcast with more than 10,000 downloads, brand deals, a feature in High Times, and a community of gardeners who continue to prove that there is space for cannabis loving adults to show up exactly as they are. I’m also talking about getting comfortable on camera, creating confidence through repetition, comparing yourself to people who are already doing the thing you want to do, feeling like you are starting too late, and why you need to stop letting other people shit on your ideas. You don’t need to have the entire plan figured out. You just need to take one tiny step toward the thing you keep saying you want. Instead of constantly asking what if nobody watches, what if nobody follows, or what if nobody buys, maybe it is time to ask yourself a different question. What if your freshly gardened idea really f*****g works? 💨 GET ON THE LIST Something new is growing and the people on my email list will hear about it first.

    Weed, Mushrooms & Why Your Great Product Still Isn’t Selling

    Send us Fan Mail  What happens when you combine a $237 weed delivery, $51 in cannabis taxes, mushroom chocolate, motherhood and an unfiltered lesson about building a trustworthy brand online? You get this episode. Steph is gardening solo and talking about why alcohol continues to get a free pass while cannabis and plant medicine are demonized, what her experience with mushroom chocolate was actually like and how she talks openly with her kids about cannabis. Then the weed delivery finally arrives, so naturally, there’s an impromptu haul featuring CAM, Alien Labs, Revelry, Birdies and a suspiciously cheap $5 eighth. But this episode goes deeper than what’s in the bag. Steph reintroduces herself and shares how years of failing forward, posting thousands of pieces of content and building in public helped turn The Garden Tok into the community it is today. She also breaks down why a great product isn’t enough, why brands need to start building trust before they launch and why influencer marketing should not be confused with direct sales. Attention gets people through the door. Trust makes them stay. Your product still has to do its job. Grab your coffee, pack your bowl and get ready to light up and level up.

    How Weed, Golf, Comedy & Questioning Everything Built His Brand

    Send us Fan Mail What do weed, golf, comedy, conspiracy theories and building a personal brand all have in common? This week, I’m sitting down with Roger “RGB” Harris, host of the Pitch, Putt & Puff Podcast and Conspiracy Chaos, and let’s just say… this conversation goes everywhere. We talk about how he built an entire brand around the things he genuinely loves instead of trying to fit into someone else’s box. From cannabis and golf to comedy shows, podcasting, community building and why questioning everything has opened doors he never expected. Then… we put on our tinfoil hats. We dive into Bigfoot, Missing 411, Antarctica, the moon landing, dragons, aliens, the firmament, data centers, Hollywood, parenting, social media and what it really means to think for yourself. Whether you agree with us or think we’re completely out of our minds, I hope this episode reminds you of one thing: Curiosity is a superpower. If you’ve ever wanted to build a brand around who you actually are instead of chasing trends, this episode is for you. 💨 Topics we cover:  • How RGB built his brand around weed, golf and comedy  • Why authenticity beats trying to “fit in”  • Cannabis, parenting and breaking the stoner stereotype  • Building community through podcasting  • Conspiracy theories that make you question everything  • Why asking better questions can change your life 🌱 Want to support the show and yourself?

    People Might Discover You Because of What You Sell, But they Stay Because of Who You Are.

    Send us Fan Mail What makes people stick around? It’s probably not what you think. In this solo episode, I’m diving into one of the biggest mistakes I see creators, entrepreneurs, and small business owners make online. So many people spend months building the perfect brand, logo, website, or product before they ever start sharing their story. But here’s the truth: People might discover you because of what you sell. They stay because of who you are. I’m breaking down why the story behind the brand is often more valuable than the brand itself, how connection creates loyalty, and why documenting your journey beats waiting for perfection every single time. If you’re building a business, growing a personal brand, creating content, or sitting on an idea you’ve been afraid to share, this episode is for you. In this episode we cover: Why the best brands create communities, not just customersThe difference between attention and loyaltyWhy people connect with stories more than productsHow to build trust before you ever launchWhy documenting your journey is your biggest marketing advantageThe real reason people keep coming backIf you enjoyed this episode and want to support the show, the best ways to help are: 💨 Leave a review for The Garden Tok Podcast 🪴 Share this episode with a friend 💨 Grab some merch at GardenTokMerch.com 🪴 Follow @TheGardenTok and @Thegardentokpodcast for more content, podcast clips, and behind-the-scenes moments Every share, review, and merch purchase helps me continue bringing you new episodes and conversations that help normalize cannabis culture, build businesses, and create freedom through content.

    Don’t Go Viral and Don’t Open a Dispensary (Here’s Why)

    Send us Fan Mail Everyone thinks going viral = money. Everyone thinks owning a dispensary = freedom. Yeah not exactly. In this episode, I sat down with Kimberly Ward  a viral creator, dispensary owner, and cultivator who’s actually lived both sides and isn’t sugarcoating any of it. We’re straight up busting myths in this one. What 100M+ views really paid (and why it’s not what you think) What it actually takes to own a dispensary + grow Why so many people in the cannabis space are just trying to stay afloat And why she said she wouldn’t do it again She also opens up about postpartum, motherhood, and how she talks to her kids about cannabis while literally building a business around it. This is the side people don’t post. The part that doesn’t go viral. We get into:  the truth about “viral money” (it’s not that simple)  what 100M views actually did, and didn’t do  the real behind the scenes of owning and growing cannabis  postpartum, pressure, and building while raising kids  how she navigates those conversations at home  and what actually matters if you’re trying to build something sustainable If you’ve been chasing views or thinking a business automatically equals freedom,  this episode might shift your whole perspective.
