In this episode, we chat with Janna Champagne, BSN, RN, and cannabis expert. Her story is fascinating and she is such a wealth of information. This is going to be one of my most cited and educational episodes to date because she is just such an expert in her field.
Janna's introduction to the cannabis industry began as a cannabis patient who happens to be a nurse, when she suffered a debilitating immune health collapse in 2012.
Janna credits cannabis for helping to reduce her reliance on harmful pharmaceuticals, and for supporting her ability to regain optimal health status against all odds. Janna has a BSN, experience in acute care, ortho, cath lab, and neuro as an RN. I’m so honored to have Janna Champagne on the Uncensored Nurse podcast.
