In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Ishqa sits down with Rachel Xin and Jean Tran at Hall of Flowers to explore the origins and mission of Juāna, a women-focused wellness brand rooted in Chinese heritage. From the thoughtful design and healing intent behind every product to the integration of Chinese medicinal herbs and adaptogens, Juāna offers more than cannabis—it offers a multi-sensory experience of balance, healing, and beauty.
Rachel and Jean speak on representation, intentionality, and inclusivity in the industry, all while building a brand that speaks directly to women from all backgrounds, especially those often left out of the cannabis conversation.
