Ep 29: From College Stress to Kratom Success: Soren Shade's Story
Soren Shade, a Kratom advocate and entrepreneur, shares his unconventional introduction to the plant. While battling the pressures of studying at Columbia University, he found himself overly reliant on caffeine, leading to sleep deprivation and compromised well-being. Soren's discovery of Kratom through an episode of Hamilton's Pharmacopoeia, ironically, led him to a healthier relationship with stimulants. Kratom provided the energy boost he needed without the caffeine jitters, allowing him to excel in his studies while improving his sleep and overall mental health. What started as a personal solution for Soren blossomed into a passion for drug education and policy reform. He dives into the cultural stigmas surrounding Kratom and other substances, advocating for a science-based approach to understanding their effects. Soren emphasizes the importance of responsible use, education, and supporting brands that prioritize consumer safety and responsible marketing. Tune in to hear more from Soren Shade as he shares his insights on navigating the complex world of Kratom, promoting informed consumption, and advocating for sensible drug policies.
