Kirk has been a long-time advocate of cannabis. In the past seven years he has deepened his cannabis knowledge by interviewing cannabis scientists, researchers, prescribers, users, sellers, and growers for his passion project podcast. As a self-employed nurse, Kirk is a teacher, counselor, and an advocate of enhancing health and well-being. He applies the nursing process to individuals, communities and populations when discussing cannabis, which can maintain, restore, or affect optimal physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and social health. Kirk shares his learning of how cannabis applies to nursing practice across generations through Reefer Medness – The Podcast by exploring plant medicine in a measured and professional manner. His professional belief is personal wellness is always defined by the individual. Chasing down cannabis stories has become his new passion.
