How to Do the Pot

162. Do You Feel Judged for Liking Weed? Why Sharing Your Story Matters this Election Day & Beyond


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we hear from women about the shame they’ve internalized around their cannabis consumption — even though it has improved their well-being tremendously. Listening to stories like this, or sharing your own, helps chip away at the decades-old social perception and stigma surrounding weed and the people who consume it. Today, five states have the choice to make adult-use cannabis consumption legal, which would be an incredible step towards eradicating the stigma. We hope you enjoy this episode and feel inspired to use your voice (or your vote!) to support the future of cannabis.

Thank you to our guests Christine De La Rosa, Ariana Newton, Dr. June Chin, Kia Baker and Kelsey Ledezma.
