Growing up on the outskirts of social norms, being raised in a traditional Christian family, and his relationship with cannabis, pharmaceuticals, alcohol, and psychoactive substances covering a lot of emotional, psychological, and physical pain. Connect with Noah & Nina https://linktr.ee/ninaizel Noah operated at a high level in the Cannabis/THC/CBD industry on a large scale for 15+ years and it was this work that forced him to choose between his business and his life.

His journey to self-discovery weaved through relationships, stability through a consistent yoga practice, and various plant medicines such as kambo and ayahuasca to pull him out of incredible darkness.
