Meet Reverend Kelly 

Reverend Kelly, founder of The KGL Network® and Kelly’s Green Lounge®, is a leading Canadian cannabis advocate, educator, media producer, and spiritual leader dedicated to integrating cannabis into mainstream society through education, healing, and community.

Reverend Kelly has cultivated a safe, inclusive space through her growing network of platforms — including Kelly’s Green Lounge®, KGLTV, the Canadian Cannabis Tourism Alliance, and Cannabis Spirituality® — each designed to uplift others, reduce stigma, and celebrate the cultural, therapeutic, and sacred dimensions of the plant.

A dynamic professional with a rich and varied background, Reverend Kelly has spent her life working with and for people. Her career began in radio broadcasting, where she was the only woman to graduate from her program, going on to become an on-air personality, public relations specialist, and agent for world-renowned DJs. She has hosted major events in Toronto, produced large-scale stage shows at some of Ontario’s biggest cannabis gatherings, participated in global festivals, and taught seminars about House Music across North America.

Beyond entertainment, she has devoted over a decade to childcare and education, specializing in supporting children with special needs. Her natural compassion, intuitive leadership, and lived experience have guided her to create spaces that are healing, inclusive, and community-first.

A certified cannabis educator, Reiki Master, herbalist, and ordained minister, Reverend Kelly is the founder of Cannabis Spirituality® — a registered movement focused on plant-based wellness, ceremony, and soul reconnection. She leads retreats, sacred rituals, and trauma-informed education that honor cannabis as a tool for personal and collective growth.

Through KGLTV Media, she has produced over 1,000 shows, giving voice to underrepresented stories across the cannabis space — from women and BIPOC leaders to 2SLGBTQIA+ educators, healers, and advocates. Her original projects include Late Night Sesh, Wellness with Toni, The Voice, Herstory, Theirstory, and countless media collaborations.

As a pioneer in Canadian cannabis tourism, Reverend Kelly co-founded the Canadian Cannabis Tourism Alliance and launched the Cannabis Tourism Awards, shining a spotlight on the innovation, hospitality, and economic potential of the sector. Her work in tourism is grounded in access, education, and regional pride — helping define the future of cannabis travel in Canada.

She also created the Women of Cannabis® and Men of Cannabis® calendars — bold, beautiful tributes to the people shaping the movement — and leads community-driven projects like Doobies for Sleeping Bags, holiday donation drives, and events in support of domestic violence survivors and youth in crisis.

Her passion for personal and community wellness fuels everything she does. Combining formal training, lived experience, and a deep love for the plant, Reverend Kelly helps others incorporate cannabis safely and intentionally into their lives — to find balance, healing, and homeostasis.

Reverend Kelly currently serves as the Chair of Nominations for the Inspire Awards, Canada’s largest LGBTQ2+ recognition program, where she helps elevate excellence and inclusion across communities.

The KGL Network® is a vibrant hub for learning, connection, and social change — offering both online and in-person programming that spans education, media, ceremony, tourism, and activism. Through it all, Reverend Kelly continues to lead with grace, grit, and an unwavering commitment to the cannabis community.
