WHY HIGHER?

Higher is the nation’s first and only cannabis conference created by and for Women of Color. Now in our third year, we continue to redefine the industry by centering healing, equity, and power. Our space is intentional, rooted in shared experience and collective advancement, with programming that nourishes the spirit, feeds the mind, and amplifies the voices often left out of the cannabis economy. From real estate and licensing to ancestral healing and entrepreneurship, Higher is where vision, policy, and purpose converge.

CONVERSATIONS
WORTH GROWING

From cannabis and real estate to policy, self-care, tech, equity, and cultural preservation—our panels push past surface-level conversations and go deep. Explore how women of color are navigating the systems, challenging the status quo, and building new blueprints for ownership, wellness, and impact.
