Throughout his career as a professional athlete, Ricky Williams was often criticized for his belief in the healing power of cannabis. In recent years, as plant-based medicine has become more of an integral part of our culture, Ricky is now viewed as a leading visionary in the movement toward a cannabis-based approach to wellness. Ricky is also becoming more well-known for his work as a holistic healer, a journey that began nearly 15 years ago after his first retirement from the NFL. Ricky has immersed himself in the study of evolutionary astrology as well as other healing modalities including Ayurvedic medicine, cranial sacral therapy, meditation, pranic healing and yoga. Ricky is currently pursuing his doctorate in Chinese medicine and continues to help clients around the world gain a deeper understanding of their lives through his evolutionary astrology practice. Ricky received his Bachelor of Arts in Education from the University of Texas.
Prior to becoming RW’s chief executive officer, Linnea maintained a nearly 15-year corporate and commercial real estate career at the global law firms of DLA Piper and Seyfarth Shaw. In recent years, it was her personal and professional partnerships with Ricky that guided her to her life’s mission: to facilitate and amplify consciousness and care for herself and others. While acting as Ricky’s business manager, Linnea was introduced to the inner workings of the multi-faceted wellness industry, which the modern cannabis movement is a significant part of. Through these experiences as well as hearing people’s diverse stories, she discovered the subtle yet powerful ways in which conscious cannabis use can enhance and optimize — in a multitude of ways — one’s sense of well-being and connection to his or her authentic self. For the past few years, Linnea and Ricky have been preparing herbal remedies for their loved ones with the goal of awakening and engaging the inner physician in all of us. Along with these herbal remedies, they provided education on usage as well as complementary holistic healing techniques. What began as an intimate passion project is now being carried into the greater public domain through RW’s thoughtfully curated product assortment. Linnea received her B.A. in Public Policy from Duke University and her J.D. from Vanderbilt University.
