The Keef Recall: Everything Wrong With Cannabis Right Now
A Trust Problem in the Cannabis Industry Let’s stop pretending this is just a harmless “labeling issue.” It’s not. This is a trust problem. A credibility problem. And honestly? It’s an industry maturity problem. When a major cannabis beverage brand ships products with THC levels outside the legal variance, on the low end, that’s not just a whoopsie. That’s either gross incompetence or quietly cutting corners and hoping no one notices. And guess what? People noticed. And gu

LinkedIn Is Garbage Now (And Everyone Knows It)
For a platform that calls itself “the world’s professional network,” LinkedIn increasingly feels like the internet’s most polite dumpster fire. It’s supposed to be where careers happen.Where professionals connect.Where opportunity lives. Instead it has become something else entirely: A system that monetizes career anxiety , tolerates industrial-scale spam, and sells premium access to a marketplace that often doesn’t work. And the data behind the platform makes something pain

Sick of Slop: Why Hiring Managers Have Stopped Reading Résumés
A hot take for creatives, marketers, and anyone still polishing bullet points like it’s 2012. Let’s just say the quiet part out loud. Hiring managers are not reading your résumé. Not because they’re lazy.Because they’re drowning. They’re wading through an ocean of ChatGPT-polished, keyword-stuffed, “results-driven, dynamic professional with a proven track record” sludge. It all sounds the same. It all looks the same. It’s optimized for an algorithm, not a human. And humans?Hu

Where Compliance Meets Care: Building Content Systems in Cannabis Retail and Functional Medicine
I have the unique privilege of leading content and marketing in two industries most people think have nothing in common. Cannabis retail. Functional medicine. On the surface, they seem worlds apart. One is compliance-heavy, retail-driven, culture-forward. The other is research-backed, trust-centered, and rooted in long-term health transformation. But here’s what they actually share: Both require education over hype. Both operate under regulatory scrutiny. Both demand trust be

The Deceptive Labeling of Smokiez Spinellos: A Call for Transparency
Understanding Consumer Trust How does Smokiez Spinellos advertise “NO HFC” on the front of the box, yet list corn syrup as the first ingredient? That is deceptive labeling. Full stop. You cannot position yourself as clean and premium while leading with the very ingredient family you’re trying to distance yourself from. Consumers are not stupid. I work retail. I watch the buying behavior in real time. Customers pick it up. They read it. They hesitate. They put it back. And the

How to Build a Content Strategy Framework That Scales
Designing a Pillar Content System That Compounds Authority Most brands produce content. Few build a content strategy framework. The difference is structural. A content strategy framework defines belief, narrative, workflow, measurement, and long-term positioning. Without that structure, content becomes reactive, inconsistent, and difficult to scale. As a Marketing Director, I design pillar content systems that transform content from weekly output into long-term brand infrastr

How to Produce 300+ Videos a Year Without Burning Out Your Team
Most creative teams don’t have a talent problem. They have a sustainability problem. During my time leading digital video for the World Series of Poker, we produced more than 300 videos annually across live tournaments, promotional campaigns, YouTube, and daily social highlights. The pressure wasn’t theoretical. It was daily. And it was relentless. The real stress didn’t show up in week one. It showed up in week six. Twelve-hour edit days. Last-minute executive requests layer

🚨 HOT TAKE / PSA FOR CREATIVES 🚨 AVOID CROSSINGHURDLES.COM
There’s a growing pile of evidence suggesting CrossingHurdles.com may not be a job platform at all — but a data-harvesting machine disguised as one. Across Reddit, Glassdoor, and LinkedIn, content creators, animators, video editors, and social media managers are reporting the same pattern: • Eye-watering job listings ($50–$100/hr, remote, minimal requirements) • Immediate funnel into a one-way “AI interview” • No human contact • No follow-up • No job • No proof anyone gets

We took a family trip to Puerto Vallarta and somehow managed to do it right.
No resorts that feel like cruise ships on land.No itinerary so tight it ruins everyone’s mood by Day 2.Just beaches, tacos, wandering streets, and the kind of moments you wish you could bottle. If you’ve ever wondered:• Is PV actually good with kids?• Where do you stay if you want “real” Mexico and comfort?• What does a chill, food-forward, low-stress family trip really look like? I wrote it all down — the good, the easy, and the parts that made us say “yeah, we’d do this a

This Airline Deal Sounds Fake — I Read the Fine Print So You Don’t Have To
Every once in a while, something crosses my radar that feels… off.Not bad off. More like “how is this allowed?” off. That’s what happened when I stumbled into Frontier Airlines’ GoWild Pass — an all-you-can-fly setup that, on paper, sounds like late-night infomercial nonsense. Unlimited flights. Dirt-cheap fares. Spontaneous travel baked into the deal. Naturally, I assumed it was either: A scam A spreadsheet nightmare Or a brilliant idea ruined by fine print Turns out, it’

Crafting the Perfect ChatGPT Prompt
Or: How to Stop Getting Generic AI Slop and Start Getting Real Results Let’s get something straight right away:ChatGPT is not “smart” in the way people think it is. It’s obedient. And most people are terrible at giving instructions. That’s why half the internet thinks AI is either useless… or terrifying. They mumble vague nonsense into the void, get back beige oatmeal, and declare the whole thing overrated. That’s not AI’s fault. That’s user error. If you want ChatGPT to perf

How to Actually Customize ChatGPT (and Why Most People Are Doing It Wrong)
Most people use ChatGPT like a very smart intern. They ask questions. They accept answers. They move on. That’s fine—for novelty, brainstorming, or one-off tasks. But if you’re using AI regularly for work, strategy, or decision-making, that approach leaves a massive amount of value on the table. ChatGPT becomes exponentially more useful when you stop treating it like a search engine and start treating it like a system you actively calibrate. This post walks through how to do
