In this episode of the Bodacious Women in Cannabis podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Debi Wimberley, the visionary founder of Effective Cannabis and the Effective Cannabis newsletter. Debbie shared her powerful and inspiring journey from being abandoned by doctors during the opiate crisis to discovering the life-changing benefits of medical cannabis. Her personal battle with chronic regional pain syndrome and severe lung conditions led her to become a passionate advocate for medical cannabis education.

Debbie discussed how she transitioned from being in a wheelchair with a 24-hour caregiver to regaining her independence and significantly improving her health through the use of medical cannabis. She emphasized the importance of proper education and the need for collaboration among experts in the field to provide accurate and accessible information to patients.

Effective Cannabis curates a newsletter that collaborates with certified educators, doctors, scientists, and patients to share research and firsthand stories about the benefits of medical cannabis. Debbie highlighted the challenges of educating the public about medical cannabis, including the lack of interest from dispensaries and restrictions on advertising.

Despite these obstacles, Debi and her team of volunteers are dedicated to making a difference by providing valuable resources and support to those in the medical cannabis community. Her unwavering commitment to her vision and her belief in the power of collaboration make her a true inspiration.
