“It's hard when you want to pay attention to what the system is saying or what your lawmakers are saying, or what the regulation is saying, and they're not making it, I guess, accessible or fair or really understanding.” - Coss Marte

In this episode, Coss Marte shares his inspiring journey from being a multimillion-dollar drug ring leader to becoming an entrepreneur in the cannabis industry. He shares his experience in advocating for the cannabis space and applying for dispensary licenses in Massachusetts and New York. Coss also discusses the complexities of cannabis legislation in New York, such as vertical integration restrictions and branding regulations.
