Brian got the chance to sit down with Dustin Johnson, an Arizona based lifestyle cannabis pioneer that stumbled into this unique and polarizing industry. At the inception, Dustin simply wanted to help remedy his mother with a legal alternative to the crippling pain she had endured for many years following a bad knee injury, that came with multiple surgeries. It was after seeing his mother become pain free and drug free due to the natural medicinal properties found in cannabis, did he decide to go all in. Find out how he did it successfully with the brands Monarch and later, Huxton.
