With over two decades of experience in both nursing and massage therapy, I bring a clinical yet holistic perspective to the intersection of cannabis, wellness, and skincare. I've been immersed in the cannabis industry since 2010 and began teaching in 2017, committed to educating others on safe, effective, and evidence-informed practices. As a nurse of 24 years and a licensed massage therapist for 19 years, my teaching is grounded in both science and compassion.

In 2014, I founded Primal Therapeutics, one of the first mobile cannabis massage businesses in the country, dedicated to bringing plant medicine directly to clients in a personalized and therapeutic setting. Building on that mission, I launched Primal Healing in 2019, a line of organic hemp-based skincare products that reflect my commitment to quality, integrity, and the healing power of nature. Since creating both businesses, I have been featured in many publications.

I have been providing education at the largest spa conferences in the nation since 2017. My courses focus on cannabis massage, integrative wellness, and topical skincare applications, offering students real-world insights from the front lines of both healthcare and plant medicine. I believe in empowering practitioners to elevate their skills and their self-care, and I bring a deep respect for the healing potential of the human touch and the cannabis plant.

My teaching philosophy is simple: never stop learning. I’m honored to share what I’ve learned—and continue to learn—with others dedicated to growth, healing, and professional excellence.

Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler is the creator and host of Back from the Borderline, a globally acclaimed podcast that has redefined the narrative around psychological suffering, healing, and personal transformation. With millions of downloads and a ranking in the top 5-10% of podcasts globally, Mollie has built a platform where listeners can explore the raw, unfiltered aspects of human experience, embracing both the psychological and spiritual dimensions of self-discovery.

What sets Mollie apart is her unique ability to blend modern psychology with ancient wisdom and non-human intelligence. As an experiencer of non-human intelligence (NHI), Mollie has had encounters that have profoundly shaped her understanding of the human psyche and the world around us. Through her podcast, she seamlessly integrates her personal experiences with the numinous with deeper explorations into mysticism and depth psychology. This has allowed her to bridge the divide between traditional mental health paradigms and the evolving narratives surrounding NHI, offering listeners a more expansive and holistic understanding of reality. Her work is a powerful challenge to the confines of modern, diagnostic-driven approaches to psychology, which often neglect the soul’s capacity for growth through pain and transformation.

In addition to her podcast, Mollie has amassed a loyal following, including thousands of paying subscribers on Patreon and readers on Substack. She has been a featured guest on prominent platforms, including the official podcast of The Joseph Campbell Foundation, and will be a speaker at South by Southwest (SXSW) 2025. At SXSW, she will delve into the intersection of mental health, mysticism, and non-human intelligence, advocating for a worldview that embraces both the mysteries of the unseen and the scientific advancements of the modern age. Mollie’s approach is grounded in the belief that to truly heal, we must go beyond the binary and explore the complexities of our existence—both the human and the non-human, the scientific and the mystical.

Mollie’s podcast, Back from the Borderline, is an audio sanctuary, intentionally created to offer listeners a reprieve from the noise and distractions of the digital age. Choosing to remain audio-only, she rejects the visual fatigue of screen-dominated content, instead offering an immersive, intimate experience that allows her listeners to reconnect with themselves in a deeply personal way. This choice is informed by Mollie’s own experience in the music industry, where she reclaimed her voice after losing control of her creative work. Each episode of her podcast is self-produced, a reflection of her commitment to maintaining creative freedom and offering content that is truly her own.

With a voice that is both intellectual and compassionate, Mollie challenges the rigidity of modern mental health narratives and calls for a return to myth, story, and an expanded consciousness. She is committed to helping her listeners break free from the limitations imposed by a fragmented society - one that profits from division and categorization - and to embrace a more integrated, expansive view of the Self. Through her work, Mollie offers a unique perspective: a path that weaves together the wisdom of the ancients, the exploration of non-human intelligence, and the transformative power of the human psyche.

Whether speaking about the deep mysteries of non-human intelligence, mental health, or the need to reclaim myth and meaning in a rapidly changing world, Mollie Adler’s work provides a much-needed voice for those seeking to understand the world beyond the confines of conventional thinking. Her message is clear: healing, growth, and transformation are possible when we embrace the full spectrum of human experience - and when we dare to explore the unseen realms that shape our lives.

Bogdan Chugunov

Bogdan Chugunov

As a cancer survivor I passed through a lot. After the tumor was surgically removed in 2005 my life has turned upside-down. Western medicine has not provided with any solution for how to stay in remission after the surgery. A chemo and radio-nuclear treatment are parts of a treatment, not a healing one I think. A preventive medicine in American transcription means to check up cancer development progress regularly performing colonoscopy and endoscopy as often as my health insurance permits.
I flew around the globe and visited those countries/regions/compounds where statistically the mortality rate caused by a gastric cancer stayed close to zero. I stayed at such places learning everything about those folks’ daily diets and found several ingredients local people consume regularly as their regular food that I believe prevents them from developing gastrointestinal cancer. Such countries/regions are New Zealand, Brazil, Turkey, Mongolia, Uruguay.
I changed my life and business course to natural supplements and functional foods importer/distributor. Later I became a brand owner of Bee Magic and Health Republic and brought several natural remedies to USA: Manuka honey, bee propolis extracts, Shilajit, Siberian cedar sap oleoresin, beaver castoreum, maral antlers, chaga and reishi mushrooms.
I do believe such remedies indirectly prevent human mutated cells from converting into cancerous stage. I've learned a lot about Manuka Honey (living in New Zealand), now I know how to identify real Manuka honey from a fake ( my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIo7IYRuFhkGiOUxvNz4kfw
tells you a little what I mean), I can tell about common tricks nowadays mass Manuka honey manufacturers use to keep their brand “competitive” on the US market and why FDA does not control the "Manuka honey" quality.
I'm proficient in another beehive product that human civilization has known for at least 4000 years - bee propolis and I can tell about what this strange looking natural substance is.
I can touch some sort of “witchcraft” ingredients such as beaver castoreum, maral antler's powder, reishi and chaga mushrooms, cedar sap oleoresin, to use as an alternative medicine. Based on my personal experience of being in remission for 17 years, I can talk about such products professionally because I consumed them daily and for a long period of time.
I can share such knowledge acquired from my own experience with a "Guiney pig" credentials .
Finally, I pose myself as a "laboratory rat" or "a rabbit" (Guinea pig in American translation) who tests all natural remedies for healing effect on myself before recommending it to people. I do consume several supplements and functional foods daily to heal: my broken leg, colon polyps’ development suppression, better blood circulation, and soft tissue recovery after surgery or mechanical damage. Willing to share my experience , results with interested parties.
