In this episode, I sit down with Lou Sagar, founder of The Alchemist’s Kitchen, to explore his personal journey with cannabis and its evolution as a plant medicine in New York City. We dive into the roots of The Alchemist’s Kitchen as a botanical apothecary, the shifting cannabis culture in NYC, and how ancestral medicine and education are key to a more conscious cannabis industry. Lou shares his perspective on the current regulatory landscape, the role of mindset in cannabis use, and how culinary and community-based approaches could shape the future of plant medicine. Whether you’re passionate about cannabis education, curious about the industry’s challenges, or drawn to the intersection of spirituality and wellness, this conversation offers insight into where cannabis is headed, and what it might take to get there.
