Budtender of the Month: Juan Rios-Sanchez
"I’m not wealthy by any means, but I’m rich in the heart and that’s what matters the most."
"I’m not wealthy by any means, but I’m rich in the heart and that’s what matters the most."
Moving here across the country was a risk, but now I haven’t felt so put together in my life because of this plant.
I like to buy a bunch of buds and find the most picturesque flower to be photographed.
The Cannabis Cafe in West Hollywood hosted this Budtender Appreciation Party.
Between the plant and regular yoga, I’ve become the best version of myself.
The patients have become really good friends of mine. We can talk about anything, from Cannabis to life itself.
It’s all about building relationships.
You have to love who you’re working with to last this long.
I give people the best Cannabis education I can, but I’m also open to learning things from patients and customers.
I shine everywhere I go.
I was introduced to Cannabis by friends, and then I integrated it into skating.
I love to smile. We need more of it.
People are feeling more comfortable spending time in the store, because it is more accepted and the stigma is breaking.
Trying to project positivity is important.
I try to find a way to help people out by talking to them during their visit and connecting with them.
The socializing that comes with sharing Cannabis has allowed me to open up more.
"I love it because every story is different."
"We’re a very chill shop … It’s a vibe."
When it comes to being an excellent budtender, the nose knows.
One thing I ask people is, ‘How can I get you high?’ That gets people thinking about different consumption methods.
