Welcome back to another episode of Living the Red Life. I'm your host with Insight Success, Ray Gutierrez. Joining me today is Tara Maybach. She is the co-founder of Violet Wild in British Columbia. And I don't want to spoil it, but I'll let you spoil it. I'll spoil it. It's a cannabis company and I'm all about cannabis. I'm all about the culture. So let's take it away. Who are you and why are you here?
Tara Maybach 1:48
My name is Tara Maybach and I have been working with my sister Sonia for the last six and a half years on our business called Violet Wild. I have to first acknowledge that she's not here and how difficult it is for women and mothers in business. You know you have to be in the room a lot of the times to make a difference and you have to be in the room to get the opportunity so unfortunately she can't be here. She has other roles at home, two babies and

Why does Tara say combating cannabis stigma is one of her ‘whys’?

Tara Maybach 2:15
Yeah, I just want to really acknowledge women and how difficult it really is for mothers.
Ray Gutierrez 2:20
Let's talk about being in the room. We actually filmed your episode for Legacy Makers and she was very much in the room. I even mispronounced her name, Sonia. Am I still doing it wrong? No. So she's here with us in spirit. Quite the energy, you both were very magnetic. Let's talk about your why, your messaging. Folks hear cannabis and they think, oh, that's gross marijuana, the wild mambo, the devil's juice, whatever they call it. To me, it's a medicine. It's a remedy. It's a way of life. It is a way of feeling somewhat acceptable in this reality or dimension. Talk about the people you are healing with the wild mambo or the devil's juice.
Tara Maybach 2:58
Well, you know, you've hit the nail on the head, Ray, the stigma around cannabis. It is one of my whys. I want to make cannabis approachable. It's for everybody. Our store services people from 19 to 90, maybe even older. Sure. And my other why is really the way it makes people feel, the way that it allows us to show up as who we are meant to be and to calm down the mind and the body. I also think that a big why for me is to give opportunities to other people and also for them to find cannabis and then be able to give opportunities to themselves. Absolutely. Because finding relief. It is a medicine. I'm going to say it right now to everybody who's listening. It's a medicine. It's a healing plant. It's something that is there for everybody.

What is Violet Wild’s mission and who does the brand serve?

Ray Gutierrez 3:50
I work in a high intense environment running four studios, dealing with CEOs. I wouldn't say dealing, working with CEOs, working with entrepreneurs. It's a lot of energies, a lot of frequencies, positive, negative, it doesn't matter. It's all energy. but i have to medicate i have to be at a certain zone to stay level-headed you know i i suffer from having a temper i suffer from anxiety running at that level constantly it's very exhausting when i'm medicating which i'm currently right now medicated uh the anxiety is gone and the happiness sinks in and you're just kind of like on on the mario kart rainbow road uh racetrack
