In this episode, Michael Peres sits down with Sara Gullickson — serial entrepreneur, investor, and one of the first female executives to run a publicly traded cannabis company. With over a decade of experience building and scaling businesses in progressive markets, Sara shares how she transformed a Craigslist ad for “marketing for pot” into a multi-state cannabis empire.
