We had the good fortune of connecting with Scott McDowell and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Scott, how do you think about risk?
Simply put without risk there is no reward! In any business, you must take risks by investing your time, energy, and capital to grow. I have taken several big risks in moving a few different times around the country to take advantage of opportunities. Without takin the risk of relocating from NYC to Denver about 7 years ago we would not be having this conversation.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
BloomMaryJane.com started in the summer of 2020 as a content platform focused on Global Cannabis News, Product Reviews, and Creative Spotlights. In November we teamed up with a Hemp processor to manufacture our own private-label of CBD Bath Bombs. Through the holidays we tested the pulse of the market with our bath bombs and everyone enjoyed our products. In early 2021 we decided to shift the entire focus of Bloom Mary Jane from a content platform into a CBD skincare e-commerce marketplace. We now have six styles of 100mg full spectrum CBD bath bombs and recently introduced our Flore Cura Cranberry & Bamboo 10MG CBD Facial Mask into our product lineup. All of our products are 3rd party lab-tested, 100% Vegan, Cruelty-free, and THC-free.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Some of my favorite spots in the city include 54Thirty, Mile High Spirits, Avanti, Main Lobster Shack, and McGregor Square has been on my radar lately.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would love to give a huge shoutout to Danny Schaefer who gave me one of my first opportunities to work in cannabis by handling brand partnerships at My 420 Tours when I was pretty new here in Colorado. Danny’s leadership, guidance, and overall ability to balance his personal as a father and his professional life are truly inspiring. I am forever grateful for our friendship!
