What if the future of cannabis isn't about getting higher, but about feeling better?
On this episode of Let's Be Blunt with Montel, Montel Williams sits down with Flavia Cassani and Michael Steinmetz, the husband-and-wife founders of FK+, a functional cannabinoid wellness brand on a mission to move the conversation from stigma to science.
Michael and Flavia are rethinking how cannabinoids can fit into everyday wellness by combining them with adaptogens and nootropics in formulations designed around specific functions.
From SLEEP+ and ENERGY+ to RELAX+ and FOCUS+, FK+ is challenging the traditional cannabis conversation by putting intention, formulation and the consumer experience front and center.
In this episode:
The inspiration behind FK+ and the lessons learned from Flow Kana
Why functional cannabinoids could represent the next evolution of cannabis wellness
The science and philosophy behind combining cannabinoids, adaptogens and nootropics
How FK+ approaches formulation, dosing and the consumer experience
Why moving from "Stigma to Science" matters for the future of the industry
The challenges of cannabis regulation, public perception and mainstream acceptance
What it's really like building a business as husband and wife.
What's next for FK+ and the future of functional wellness.
Join us for a conversation about entrepreneurship, innovation and the changing role of cannabinoids in modern wellness.
