Riderflex Podcast - Guest Interview #424 - Otha Smith

Otha Smith is back for a second visit on the Riderflex Podcast, bringing not just his authentic and raw stories, but also an inspiring journey of resilience and innovation. In 2006, Otha survived a tragic car accident that left him with a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and a reliance on opioids to manage his pain. Having been a recreational user, obtaining his medical cannabis card in Maryland was a turning point. The daunting experience at his first dispensary visit and the subsequent realization of cannabis's medicinal benefits propelled him to advocate for and contribute significantly to the cannabis community. Otha's remarkable contributions have not gone unnoticed; he was named one of the Top 40 Under 40 Rising Stars in Cannabis for 2021 by Marijuana Venture Magazine, and his efforts have been recognized as pioneering in the realm of cannabis journaling and patient empowerment. Beyond his advocacy, Otha's business acumen and dedication to conscious solutions have earned him seats on the boards of several companies and non-profit organizations, making him a revered figure in the cannabis industry.
