Courtney Smith is an enneagram coach, author, and consultant who works with individuals as well as Fortune 500 companies. After receiving a degree in mathematical economics, she graduated from Yale Law School with her JD and intended to start her career in law. She then decided to change course to consulting, where she worked at McKinsey & Company before transitioning to Condé Nast, briefly working for a real estate start-up, and even considering a career as a doctor.

Show notes

Jenna Goldring is the founder and CEO of the low-dose edible brand The High Confectionary. Before she launched her brand, Goldring spent the beginning of her career in ad sales.

Goldring realized the cannabis industry was excluding consumers like herself: busy women who enjoyed taking edibles to wind down but didn’t want to feel out of control. After learning there was a need for low-dose edibles in the cannabis market, she launched The High Confectionary in 2021. Under Goldring’s leadership, The High Confectionery continues to grow its reach and has recently partnered with Broma Bakery’s Sarah Fennel to expand the product line into low-dose chocolates.
