Windy Hill, Windy Hill | The Breakfast Connections Podcast Episode 47
Episode notes
In Episode 47 of the Breakfast Connections Podcast, we are keeping the momentum rolling. We sit down with Holly and Megan from Windy Hill Wellness Dispensary to break down their transition from the CBD world to the legal cannabis market and the importance of community-focused business. From untold industry secrets to hilarious culture debates, we aren't holding back on the stories or the laughs.
We dive into the reality of leaving a 12-year corporate career at Stewart's to sell weed, debate the legendary status of the upstate "twang," and explain exactly why the owner is affectionately known as "Big Dawg Hot Box Holly". Plus, we get a behind-the-scenes look at the "Blessing Shack," the grit required for dog rescue missions, and why a certain customer got banned for a banking-related temper tantrum. Grab a blunt, pull up, and tap into the game.
