Welcome to The Barrier Breakdown: Disrupting Mental Health!

This week our guest is Sister Kate, founder of a non-profit cannabis collective that opened for business in 2010. There, she served cannabidiol medicine to local terminal patients, and during that time, she developed a line of teas, tinctures and salves for patients to experience its healing effects without needing to smoke it. After four years of running the collective, Sister Kate began working exclusively with hemp and saw the need to share this safe, non-addictive and non-psychoactive formulation of the medicine with more people who needed it. She closed the collective in 2014, and in January of 2015 the Sisters of the Valley opened for business.
