“If we can just start to feel comfortable in our uncertainty and embrace it and be patient with it and understand that this is a process that's evolving for, can stay true to ourselves. Beautiful things emerged from uncertainty. And it's really hard, man. It's easy for me to say. It's very hard to do. But I find that the true artists of life, the people who tend to redefine themselves across different chapters of their lives that continue to grow, they've been able to dance with uncertainty and embrace it and use it as a, as a stage to grow. Man, the sooner we realize that as veterans, life becomes not this thing that you must endure, but this dance that you get to experience.” — Socrates Rosenfeld---------------Episode Timestamps:*(3:00) - Transitioning from the military to the private sector*(7:10) - First stop post-deployment: Guatemala  *(11:15) - Turning journal entries into reality*(16:30) - Leaving McKinsey and taking the leap and how to take it for yourself*(20:40) - Starting a company with your family*(25:25) - What launch day of Jane Technologies was like*(28:50) - What Socrates is focused on today with Jane and what he envisions for the future*(33:30) - Segment: The SOP*(37:35) - Segment: Giving Back Links:Connect with Socrates on LinkedInFollow Eddie on TwitterConnect with Old Grad Club on LinkedInwww.oldgradclub.com

Socrates discusses his career path from a pilot in the US Army to the CEO of a cannabis company, how Jane Technologies is hybridizing Amazon and Postmates traits to build the ultimate cannabis shopping experience, and the power of tech in curating personalized discoverability for the canna-curious.

Socrates Rosenfeld, CEO of Jane Technologies Inc., discusses his military experience and how it has informed his entrepreneurial life. He shares one of his philosophies regarding doing business in cannabis: "I see all these people trying to do a lot and focus on things that they can't control, whereas for us, I think, as stewards of this industry, we should focus on the truth...if you can focus on the truth, you can grow." Rosenfeld believes that, although there is temptation for every business to focus on profit and growth, providing access to products that help people so fully is the most important part about being in the industry. For Rosenfeld, getting yourself to where you want to be is an iterative process, and cannabis was the one thing that truly helped him to find his balance again after his military service. 

Socrates Rosenfeld, co-Founder and CEO of Jane Technologies, shares with us how Grape Jolly Ranchers, The Allman Brothers Band, and Love, all inspired him.

This episode was recorded on March 18th, 2020. In the US, major cities like San Francisco and New York were starting to mandate business closures and social distancing in the early, uncertain days of the COVID-19 Pandemic. We touched on that throughout the interview, but not not stated explicitly. I found the interview to be both timely and timeless; I hope you feel the same.

Today on Alternative Talk our host Bear Syvong is joined by Socrates Rosenfeld. From his service as an Apache helicopter commander in the U.S. Army, to developing the cannabis industry’s first complete end-to-end marketplace helping local dispensaries compete on a level playing field, to advocating for safer alternatives to opioids for treatment of post traumatic stress Socrates Rosenfeld had always wanted to do two things – help people and immerse himself in the most challenging environments he could find. After operating at consistently challenging levels both mentally and physically throughout his seven years in the Army, transitioning back to civilian life in his hometown of Newton, Massachusetts, Socrates found it challenging to find peace for himself. He felt isolated from the people that he loved most and struggled to connect. It wasn’t until he turned 29 that his wife offered him an option he had been conditioned to oppose due to years in the military and social stigma;, Socrates was introduced to cannabis and it profoundly impacted him physically, mentally and spiritually. Cannabis allowed him to maintain presence in stressful moments and view himself with self-empathy and non-judgment. He wasn’t alone; he had come across countless fellow veterans who were struggling in civilian life, but were not comfortable with trying cannabis for similar reasons that had stopped him in the past: the stigma, the lack of education and limited access to safe and regulated cannabis.

Today on Grassroots Marketing we speak with the founder of I Heart Jane/Jane Technologies, Socrates Rosenfeld. We learn about what he and his team have learned about the evolution of cannabusiness and the preparation of a future corporatization in the space in the near future. Socrates is a veteran of the U.S. Army and Apache helicopter commander. A graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), he tried cannabis for the first time at age 29 to help acclimate him back to the civilian pace of life. This and lack of reliable sources and information on cannabis was the genesis of his newest technology journey. With his brother and classmates from MIT, they built iheartjane.com, the cannabis industry's only complete end-to-end marketplace with the world's largest real-time inventory cannabis product catalog that's transforming brick-and-mortar storefronts across the US into competitive“click-and-mortar” retailers.
