The Hemp Superstore Journey to Now
I’ll never forget the feeling of starting my first hemp business. There was an immediate sense of purpose, almost like it was what I’d been waiting for my entire life.
In 2016 I had everything you could want – the job, a new business of my own and the lifestyle.
Then a life changing moment hit me like a truck. Literally.
Initially told I had whiplash, they later discovered I had a severe spinal injury requiring surgery.
And while the wait for surgery dragged on, my busy lifestyle accelerated. Work kept going and my side business making Ethically Produced Hemp Candles began growing. And when I thought it was at the limit, then came a diagnosis that nobody saw coming, Multiple Sclerosis.
Making a Change
After 42 years leading an active, healthy lifestyle, there I was still recovering from spinal surgery and being told I had MS. It seemed like the universe wasn’t just calling me to do something different with my life, it was dragging me by the scruff of the neck.
So, after getting out of hospital, I got to work.
And The Hemp Superstore is the result.
I want to show people how hemp is and is going to changing our world. After years of being ignored for its incredible planetary benefits, we are finally starting to rediscover how hemp can can heal our planet and people. It is my hope that through sharing my health experience with hemp and medical cannabis that we we can start as a society to normalize it’s use and health benefits.
Inspiring others
Our health we often take for granted, until we lose it. I want to show people that if you stick to your dreams you can achieve anything. That life’s setbacks, and health issues don’t need to stop you from realising your goals and working to change the world.
