In the ever-evolving cannabis industry, authentic voices are more valuable than ever—and Breanna Bates is one of those voices. Based in Columbus, Ohio, Breanna is the powerhouse creator behind The Ebony Hempress and Mystic Mommy TV, where she crafts content that’s as educational and inspiring as it is entertaining.
With deep roots in holistic healing, motherhood, and wellness, Breanna uses her own healing journey as a living, breathing example to inspire others. Her content is designed to uplift the cannabis community in Ohio—especially those coming from a place of curiosity about local products and a passion for the plant.
From Passion Project to Purpose-Driven Platform
Before “content creation” was a career path, Breanna was already doing the work. “I’ve been a content creator long before the term existed,” she shares. “I’ve made websites, blogs, and YouTube videos with my friends just for fun.” That passion turned into a purpose in 2018, when Breanna became serious about building her personal brand during her first pregnancy. As her journey unfolded, so did her storytelling—first focusing on motherhood, then branching into holistic wellness, and ultimately cannabis. During the pandemic, she made a bold move: stepping back from social media for a year to recalibrate. This break allowed her to refocus and build original content on YouTube, reconnecting with her creative roots before re-entering platforms like Instagram.
Elevating Ohio’s Cannabis Community and Beyond
Breanna’s mission is clear: to provide valuable, community-centered content for the cannabis industry that reflects both her lived experience and the work she does in the field. Whether she’s filming collaborations or spotlighting grassroots efforts, her content is meant to educate, uplift, and activate. Her collaborations span podcasts, apparel brands, wellness products, and cannabis media outlets, showcasing her range and reputation across the industry. She’s also a frequent collaborator with both local legacy brands and national cannabis companies, including: Hi-Curious, MoodiDay, Pleasantrees, Silberhaze Genetics, The Ohio Classic, Grön Confections, TIMELESS, LEVO, MedicateOH, Tetragram…and many more.
Building Real Connections
As Breanna continues to grow her brand and platform, she’s most excited about the relationships and opportunities ahead at MJBizCon. “I’m looking forward to all the new connections I’ll make,” she says. “It’s the biggest cannabis business conference of the year—and the value is in all the professionals and leaders who come together.” Her focus isn’t just on brand partnerships—it’s about building a community of healing, education, and impact.
