Potcast 156: Next Level Edibles and Entrepreneurship

Like me, today’s guest on the potcast is a ganjapreneur in the thick of it. Anthony Jenkins is CEO of Next Level Edibles, an Oakland Equity company. We explore cannabis for depression and the benefits of medicating with edibles. We talk entrepreneurship and how to turn hurdles into building blocks for personal success and happiness. We also swap kitchen stories and ideas for honing your casual baking skills to create next-level edibles at home.

This episode is dedicated to all of you entrepreneurs out there jumping hurdles in the weeds with Anthony and me. It’s certainly not an easy path but the rewards are next level. ✨💚✌️

Kumbaya and Cannabis,

Jo

L to R: Founders of Next Level Edibles (and brothers), Anthony and Cartier Jenkins

Anthony Jenkins is CEO of Next Level Edibles, an Oakland Equity company best-known for its top-tier infused mini cupcakes and products designed to empower the home chef. Anthony started his baking business as Elaine’s Confections before pivoting into the cannabis industry 3 years ago with his brother Cartier Jenkins.

Oakland Equity Program

In 2017 the Oakland City Council enacted the nation's first cannabis equity program to promote equitable ownership and employment opportunities in the cannabis industry in order to decrease disparities in life outcomes for marginalized communities of color and address the disproportionate impacts of the war on drugs in those communities.
