About Blunt Brunch: From a few Women to a National Movement
Blunt Brunch started small. In Arizona in 2021, during the pandemic, cannabis veterans Parisa Rad and Adelia Carrillo each invited a handful of industry women to an intimate brunch built around honest, “blunt” conversation. About ten women showed up. The founders saw how much that kind of space was needed and decided to keep doing it.
That brunch turned into a monthly gathering for women in the Arizona market, each featuring a guest speaker, a new brunch spot or a fresh activity. Within a year, it went national.

Blunt Brunch is More than an Event Series
Blunt Brunch has grown into a year-round community. Beyond Nationals, it runs local socials, luncheons, meet-and-greets and a co-ed social series in cities across the country, with local co-hosts leading many of them. It has also built a mentorship program and an online membership platform, Blunt Brunch Connect, that keeps members networking between events. Newsletter subscribers, known as Brunchettes, get early announcements, promos and 10% off tickets.
Giving back is part of the model too. Recent Nationals have donated a portion of net ticket sales to nonprofits, a tradition continuing in 2026.
At its core, Blunt Brunch runs on what the founders call the Law of Abundance: there’s more than enough business to go around, so women in the industry win by collaborating rather than competing.
