How's the House Of Yes is intrinsically inclusive, because our creative culture has been inclusive art and collaboration has been inclusive. That was a part of our we were inclusive before it was intentional before it was a cultural buzzword. And it's actually been a very interesting cultural challenge to maintain the inclusivity while protecting and curating the vibe. There have been times when we've experienced like, wow, there's way too many bros way too many type, a type of person that isn't really tuned in or aligned with some of our values or some of our ways that we dictate that a good time is what we set out to be and so we've had to adjust one point we end up doing costumes mandatory. It's not mandatory any longer. But for while we're like, oh, if we want our parties to be the vibe that we are putting out there that are our highest self, this template expression that we set out to be, then our favorite parties are the ones where everybody's wearing costumes. So they know who hates wearing costumes is angry, insecure, homophobic, transphobic, there's something about wearing costumes that feels like too feminine for certain kind of person, especially especially a male identified person. So that became a good idea for a little bit. And then eventually, that became too exclusive because it wasn't accessible, like wearing a costume to a party is sometimes not accessible to certain people. And it actually wasn't being as inclusive as we intended. So it has been, I would say, it's been an experiment. And it's the journey that we are still on the path of just getting walking the line between inclusivity and creative curation of the audience.

Read MoreCannabis is the first industry, across most industries that had the most women in leadership. Yet those number aren’t strong enough. But it says a lot about where the industry is early on. We as women have stepped forward earlier... So, we look at the legalization of Cannabis, we’re still in the infancy stage. Yes it started out as a male dominated industry, but women have absolutely started fighting the fight earlier. And really speaking up and vocalizing that this will not be a repeated cycle that we’ve seen in other industries. That said, we are beginning to see more women coming into the space. And I think for several reasons. If you are looking at the plant from the medicinal side, women are generally the caregivers of their households... There are a number of women who are in the space that perhaps are not being recognized as leaders. These are the women that are caring for their families, they are caring for the communities, they are Advocates. They are in the forefront, really fighting for patient rights. And then when you look at from the Entrepreneurial side, there are many women who are saying “I opened the door, but I am not going to let it close behind me. And I’m going to help more and more women come up and come through to start building their businesses.” I’d like to look at where we’re going, vs how we started out. Since how we started out was somewhat of a repeated behavior and pattern. What I believe we’re seeing is a change on the horizon. Which I hope to see more and more of.
