994. Medical Cannabis Explained: Montel Williams’ Guide to Pain and Inflammation Relief

43 minutes

Cannabis isn’t just a buzzword—it’s how Montel Williams manages his MS pain. In Part 2 of our conversation with Emmy-winning TV legend, veteran, and health advocate, Montel opens up about his personal journey with multiple sclerosis (MS) and discovering medical cannabis–how it saved his life and the research behind its therapeutic potential. He also talks about connecting with fellow MS warriors like Christina Applegate and Selma Blair, comparing stories and sharing hard-won lessons from their health journeys.

But it’s not just about health—Montel spills behind-the-scenes stories from his early talk-show career, including friendly rivalries (What about Oprah?) and the untold truth about creating TV that makes a real impact. From transforming his health to reshaping daytime television, Montel’s story is one you have to hear.

HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:

Cannabis isn’t a painkiller—it’s a pain distractor. Montel explains that cannabis doesn’t eliminate pain but helps reduce its emotional intensity, making it easier to live fully despite chronic conditions.

Pain can be invisible, but it’s still real. Many people struggle with conditions others can’t see, once you realize this, it can deepen your empathy and reshape how you connect with others.

Knowledge is the ultimate power in healthcare. Everyone should educate themselves on emerging treatments, advocate for personalized care, and never settle for one-size-fits-all solutions in the healthcare system.
