Weed & Wellness in Asian Culture
🎧 Conversation with Dr. June Chin x Mogu Magu
Combining culture and c*nn*bis, we sat down with a c*nn*bis doctor for a powerful AAPI Heritage Month conversation at the intersection of culture, identity, and c*nn*bis for Leafwell.
Wendy Zeng and Christina Wong, co-founders of the food and culture platform Mogu Magu, sit down with Leafwell’s Chief Medical Officer and university professor Dr. June Chin to discuss their personal journeys as Asian Americans in the c*nn*bis space.
From navigating family conversations to confronting cultural stigma, this thoughtful dialogue explores what it means to embrace c*nn*bis while honoring one’s heritage.
📘 MODERN C*NN*BIS is available for free online in 13 languages, including English, Mandarin, Tagalog, Hindi, Korean, and more, making accurate and accessible c*nn*bis education more inclusive than ever.
